### 3/5 — Getting there

*2026-03-02, version 1.1.9*

Better than the original ones, we finally have grid down notifications. It could still be more intuitive (Time of use functions etc) and why do we still not have critical alerts? I assume quite a few people would like to know always if the grid is down - hard to hear just a vibration in the middle of the night.

### 2/5 — It’s better the PV Pro

*2026-02-27, version 1.1.9*

It’s better the PV Pro but the damn thing logs you out constantly.  Why?

### 2/5 — Slow status Reporting

*2026-02-19, version 1.1.9*

Frustratingly slow updates from the SolArc inverter to the app. Takes forever to update to get current status. This is especially true when a generator is part of the power system. No notifications when the generator disconnects either.

### 3/5 — App

*2026-01-27, version 1.1.9*

I keep having to re sign into app?

### 2/5 — Upgrade schmupgrade

*2025-10-03, version 1.1.8*

Monthly and yearly historical data no longer available.  What’s up with that?  It’s available online via laptop ………….

### 3/5 — App

*2025-09-23, version 1.1.8*

I like the app…plant is showing off line.
This has happened a couple of times!

### 2/5 — Login frustration

*2025-08-30, version 1.1.7*

Like others I am frustrated that the app makes me log in repeatedly (sometimes multiple times in a single day). Other than that I find the reporting functionality reasonable. I do wish that on the default Day view you could see a daily sum of the key metrics (PV, Load, Grid) as well as those values for the currently selected 5 minute increment rather than having to switch to the Month view.

### 3/5 — constant logins

*2025-08-29, version 1.1.7*

UI is good once you’re in the app but why do i need to login every time i open it? It’s an app on my phone, just keep it logged in indefinitely

### 2/5 — Why Can't It Stay Logged In?

*2025-08-27, version 1.1.7*

There are many issues that I would echo from other reviews, but why can't it just keep me logged in? Or at least have Face ID or another fast option to do so?

### 2/5 — Not ready for prime time

*2025-08-05, version 1.1.7*

This is is a huge downgrade from the previous third party app that was used. And each “update” seems to make it worse and glitchy. And it doesn’t seem like they are in a hurry to fix it either.

### 1/5 — FIX IT

*2025-07-25, version 1.1.7*

It’s terrible.  You must use 4g!  Ridiculous that I have to go out to my inverter to check up each day.  All you have to do is fix your software.

### 1/5 — Necessary but Weak

*2025-07-18, version 1.1.7*

This app is slow. It makes you close out and log back in every single time! It doesn’t do Face ID which would be helpful if you’re going to have to log in every time. It’s not my bank account, it’s just my battery level…I don’t need such security, I just want to know if my refrigerator is running when we are away

### 2/5 — Needs improvement

*2025-07-17, version 1.1.7*

Some of it works, some does not. The graphs are nice, but the app is not intuitive. And you cannot actually CONTROL anything from the app - it simply reads data from the inverter. 
The most recent upgrade was actually a downgrade: FaceID no longer works, so you have to remember a password every few days. And the historical usage/ROI data no longer exists, so over a year’s worth of history is gone. 
Cone on, guys, you’re better than this.

### 2/5 — Need a few updates

*2025-07-15, version 1.1.7*

It keeps asking to log in almost every time i open it. Need to update it to successfully save account info. Also would be nice to add the feature of customizing monthly data by a desired date for example i would like to know how much i'm exporting from day 10 of the month until next month and not from day 1.

### 1/5 — To modify

*2025-07-05, version 1.1.7*

They should make it more sophisticated both the icon and the update

### 1/5 — Defective Last Update

*2025-07-03, version 1.1.7*

Last update is a mess. ROI data is gone and now the app screens won’t show the energy exported on my graphics. The values of the Grid and Home energy usage are also wrong.

### 1/5 — Too many changes

*2025-06-26, version 1.1.7*

Every time I go in to look at this thing, it’s new and different. They keep on chiseling away at useful information. It’s presented on the app. It is very irritating. They keep doing this. The last thing they have done away with your your return on investment. It is almost infuriating. If there were another app that that would do the same same thing for my solar unit, I would put it on my phone and throw this one in the trash.

### 1/5 — Données inexactes

*2025-06-25, version 1.1.7*

Malgré une nouvelle mise à jour ce matin, les données fournies par l’application ne sont pas concordantes: le total mensuel, celui annuel ainsi que le total depuis l’installation initiale ne correspondent pas à la somme des données quotidiennes enregistrées par le système. En plus, l’application crée une déconnexion (la plupart du temps) après utilisation qui oblige à se reconnecter la fois suivante en inscrivant à nouveau le mot de passe. Ce sont des “bugs” qui doivent être réglés par des “bug fixes” bien entendu.

### 3/5 — Updates blow away historical data

*2025-06-23, version 1.1.6*

The app is okay at showing daily generation and usage and it is nice to be able to look back over prior days. 
It was really fun to watch the ROI and carbon and reds saved data, but ever since the last update that was wiped out and all those categories show 0. Front screen where you choose which plant used to give an amount of energy generated but it always shows 0 also. Hope these downgrades can be fixed in future updates.
It would also be nice if it kept display selections when changing through different days. When comparing one day to another, I have to turn off the data I don’t want to see with each day.

### 1/5 — App Can’t Add

*2026-02-05, version 1.1.9*

I used it gauge what my electric bill will be as to know how much I grid sold verses used. Sadly I find the month to date does not match adding the days individually. The last electric bill estimate was off by $25, I calculated using a spread sheet, and though well I don’t know exactly when the meter was read. That’s when I found out the days don’t add to the month, couldn’t figure where they got the difference either. Used their support in the past and its exasperating, plan on switch to SA or write my own.

### 1/5 — Non-functional app

*2025-12-20, version 1.1.9*

At best you can occasionally view basic information. Setting changes do not take effect. You cannot view your gateway, inverter, or battery status. Be prepared to call sol-ark or your installer for anything and everything because you aren’t left with any convenient way to diy

### 1/5 — Decepcionada con la app

*2025-09-30, version 1.1.8*

Muy mala la aplicación no me deja ver lo qué uno consume en el mes y año. Deberían de arreglar eso ya qué sin eso uno no sabe si se excede o no en el consumo. Cuando uno intenta entrar a la aplicación se queda cargando y no hace nada.

### 1/5 — Latest changes, non functional

*2025-09-24, version 1.1.8*

The latest changes has made the app non-functional in several areas. The historical data (month, year) is no longer displaying and just hangs waiting for data. No ability to download actual daily, monthly, or yearly data. Color of bar graphs are very similar so it is difficult to see what is being reported. Clicking on a graph usually brings a pop up window that is outside the screen.

### 1/5 — MySolArk is not working!

*2025-09-17, version 1.1.8*

What is going on with the mysolark app??? 

1. It never updates production without pulling down to refresh, a big downgrade from the old app.
2. When pulling down to refresh, it frequently just logs me out, so I have to log back in again in order to open the app. 
3. On the login page, everything is grayed out, so I just have to guess where to enter information and check to enable login, another big downgrade from the old app, or even how mysolark used to work. 
4. Even when I do get logged in, as often as not no production is shown, zero production, it’s like it’s an orphan app, not connected to anything, much less the system it says it is connected to. 
5. It has consistently failed to show any battery bank information, even though the 15K shows it all. 

PLEASE FIX THIS APP SO SOMETHING WORKS!!!

### 1/5 — Need work

*2025-09-17, version 1.1.8*

It’s really sad to see such a great inverter tied to such an awful app. Incredibly dated looking and has a very awkward interface. If this company wants to be taken seriously, they really need to overhaul this app.

### 1/5 — Please listen to your customers

*2025-08-30, version 1.1.7*

I had high hopes when my new solar system was installed.  The solar production is working just fine, however, the MySolArk app seems like it was an after-thought.  It requires me to log in a number of times, even on the same day.  How about a “keep me logged in on this device” option, or at least a FaceID option that happens automatically?  Although I can see production and usage across days/weeks/months, some reporting feature that would allow me to select some parameters, and create a report would be very helpful.  As I’m tweaking things with my solar company, I’m have to go day by day, sometimes hour-by-hour, writing each number down, then making calculations on paper.  Seems like in this day and age, this should be easy to put into the app.   Thanks in advance for listening.

### 1/5 — App is terrible

*2025-08-29, version 1.1.7*

App keeps logging me out every day or two. So frustrating.  In this technological age that they should be able
 to design a way better app to help users interface with their inverters.

### 1/5 — Bad software - logs you out every day.

*2025-08-25, version 1.1.7*

Remarkable. You get logged out non-stop.

### 1/5 — Endless sign in

*2025-08-22, version 1.1.7*

Why oh why do I need to sign into this app so often. Surely we have the technology to keep me signed into the app once I’ve signed into my phone. 
Tiresome to the extreme.

### 5/5 — Now it working well.

*2024-08-11, version 1.1.3*

First time, I have some issues but now it is fine.

### 5/5 — It’s working now!!!

*2024-06-13, version 1.1.3*

So I downloaded the app today after a few other reviewers stated that they finally have it working. I entered the same username and PW from the previous pvinteless site and all my data and history is there. I haven’t explored every bit of the app but at least the basic functionality is all there and working well. Finally! I was getting pretty nervous about having an “off-shore” company with control of my expensive SolArk when Washington is spinning up as they are against said “off-shore” place. What a relief.

### 5/5 — Works Perfectly

*2024-06-05*

No problems at all and is working without any problems.

### 4/5 — Was working great for a while

*2025-09-18, version 1.1.8*

Love the app and the concept. The data collection worked well, up until a couple months ago when all the longterm data would magically reset daily.
The. Just after the latest update (which I ran Sept 17th), the longterm data returned. But now (Sept 18, 2025) nothing is working and the app claims the system is offline (which is not the case).
I am really hoping the bugs can get resolved as it is a great tracking app otherwise.

### 4/5 — Good but not great

*2025-04-19, version 1.1.6*

Good general functionality and data is easily parsed.   But…Just updated app 4/19/25. No change, Still showing 0% solar output on the general overview but correct on device overview, graphs are broken as well. Ok except Last data point is a time in the future and 0 for solar output.

### 4/5 — More data and flexibility desirable

*2024-11-14*

Works much better than the old app.
Would like to see 1) a summary of all daily parameters instead of having to view the monthly data chart to get this information (does it include the load when no PV generation is taking place?), 2) even without batteries, it would be very useful to see the load updated over the entire 24 hours of the graph, not only when PV is generating power, and 3) for some reason, the version number of the app appears nowhere to be seen; wasn’t there a gear earlier one could click on to get that information?

### 4/5 — Overall great

*2024-06-12*

Like many I ran Pv Pro until it said to migrate to this app. Installed, logged in using credentials from pv pro and it loaded just fine. Haven’t checked for all back history and data but it did load all my setting to include my “possible” kw production capability. 
With that said, I do enjoy the dark mode as I’m a night worker. 
Some small items to maybe tweak: buttons at bottom are slightly too low. 
Also, please change over to megawatts once we have produced that much. We dont need to see something like 19,387 kw produced. Megawatt would clean it up some. 
Other than that its rolling along nicely. Waiting for minor tweaks.

### 4/5 — Don’t like Dark Mode, otherwise works perfectly.

*2024-06-07*

The app now works and all systems that we have installed in the past several years have been migrated over and show up.

However, the Dark Mode is annoying because some of the colors are hard to see and differentiate, especially when looking at the equipment instead of the Overview.

Please give us an option to toggle Dark Mode on or off.

### 4/5 — Good not great

*2024-06-07*

Basically a better looking PV Pro. Can you guys fix the notifications? When I lost energy from the grid I would like to receive a notification … is really that hard?

### 4/5 — Quick refresh after migration

*2024-06-06*

Following the migration process, user experience is far better. US based hosting a data fare better than overseas. Hope they retain gray background as helps with visual impaired persons. 

Good job yall.
