### 5/5 — Handy Little App

*2026-05-22, version 11.12.1*

This app makes it a lot easier to find the best time for different cost on Octopus Agile scheme.   I had a question and the developer answered within a couple of hours, great service.

### 5/5 — One of the best apps in the appstore

*2026-03-16*

Had this app for a couple of years and it’s been brilliant at enabling me to track my daily usage. Recently experienced some glitches with it so contacted Rob, the developer. Within 24 hours he had applied a fix and it’s now working perfectly again. If you’re on Octopus agile this app is a must. Not only does it show the next day’s half hourly rates but is really useful to track retrospective use and as I said, see how your daily average spend per kWh is comparing with other tariffs and the price cap.

**Developer response:** Thankyou!

### 5/5 — Support feedback

*2026-02-21, version 11.12*

I had an issue with the tariff updating when I renewed my tariff with octopus and the figures weren’t matching. I contacted app support and was helped quickly and efficiently.

### 5/5 — Simple easier to use and understand.

*2025-12-01, version 11.11*

### 5/5 — Mr EV

*2025-11-18, version 11.11*

Absolutely Perfect with correct region code updated simple and clear

### 5/5 — Amazing support

*2025-09-05*

I love this app as it helps me track prices and keeps costs down.   Then one day it froze and nothing I did worked.  Disaster. 
I then contacted support and it was amazing.  Rob very patiently took me through everything he could to resolve the issue.  Emails flew between us.  Really prompt until we got it resolved and working again.  Thank you for your patience Rob and I can highly recommend this app to any of you that take saving with Octopus Agile seriously.

**Developer response:** Thank you. Glad we could get you back and running after octopus energy's changes!

### 5/5 — Great App

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-05-16*

Good app for showing various rates during the day and the day after (day after available from 4 pm).  I like the way the rates are in different colours so I can easily see when are the lowest rates and the highest, well done thank you. Use it every day to plan my electricity use. You won’t regret having this app. So glad I downloaded it.

**Developer response:** Thank you !

### 5/5 — Excellent software & brilliant support

*2025-04-24*

I have been using this app for some months now and it provides really useful information in an easy to read interface.  I couldn't figure out how to change the Octopus API key, so I sent an email to the developer and received an almost instant and most helpful response.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much

### 5/5 — Love it!!!!

*2025-01-26, version 11.7*

Also gives you a 39 day usage with standing charge.
What’s not to like????
