Handy Little App

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.

One of the best apps in the appstore

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.

Support feedback

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.

Simple easier to use and understand.

Octopus app is fab no questions about this I just think of your tight as a ducks who ha like I am this is simpler and easier to set what you deem is cheaper and higher cost! Well worth the fee!!

Mr EV

Absolutely Perfect with correct region code updated simple and clear

Amazing support

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.

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

Great App

Very good app and developer, had initial issues but Rob Sammons helped to iron it out very efficiently.

Great app

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.

Thank you !

Excellent software & brilliant support

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.

Response from developer

Thanks so much

Love it!!!!

So much easier to program smart plugs with this app.
Also gives you a 39 day usage with standing charge.
What’s not to like????

Agile user for 15 months

Clean, simple, straightforward … and set your own high threshold (maybe SVR rate?) for the red data.

Octopus Agile

I used to think this app was really good
Often saw previous days consumption and tomorrows prices before Octopus app published its data
Unfortunately the prices now are no longer accurate which sadly makes it useless
It’s a great pity

Used every day!

These homespun Octopus apps can get complicated … not this one.

Straightforward, especially if you set your high threshold rate at the SVR rate - they go red. Ideal for knowing exactly when you're not saving money. Maybe there'll be a green threshold for when the rate is cheaper than gas … that's when the immersion heater gets switched on.

Rob answers email.

Customer support superb

This app makes it plain and simple when the best time is to put your appliances on at the cheapest time of the day to save money on your energy bills . Can’t get better than that and so simple to use . Also I contacted support about a tariff issue and within minutes I had a response and resolved . You don’t get that very often . Don’t hesitate to download. A+++++

Thanks for the review, glad I could resolve the issue 🙂

Great app

Very helpful overview of the half hourly rates. Super support!

Essential App for Agile users

I really appreciate this app, I consult it many times a day and use it to program my usage of cheaper electric.
A quick email to Rob the developer brought a rapid response and worthwhile advice. Many thanks keep this invaluable app going.

Helpful reply from developer

Not showing tomorrow’s tariffs, but it seems this is to do with Octopus not the App.

Great support and really useful app

The app is really useful for monitoring upcoming agile rates and seeing usage, it’s a great tool and well worth downloading, when I reported Bugs/fixed Rob came back to me within 10-15 mins with a partial solution, other issue sits with Octopus so happy with support from developer. Thanks

No electricity tariffs

Been using it for well over a year now, found it very good, stopped working on the 1.1.25, so has become useless now.

Stopped working

No longer giving correct readings and rates
