Downloaded, it’s basic, looks great and easy to understand. Reason, I say it’d be brilliant if we could have the landscape option - look good on the IPad up on the wall as a home monitor. ### 4/5 — Works great. Split screen support would make it awesome *2025-10-21* Like the app. It’s serves the purpose. I use an older laptop (iPadOS 17) as a live HA dashboard. Split screen support would make this app awesome as it would allow it to be viewed alongside other HA apps. ### 2/5 — Login failures *2025-05-04* The login process is broken. Attempting to “Login with Tesla” gives “Open in Powerwall” in browser (why in a browser, not the app?), clicking “Open” goes right back to the “Login with Tesla” screen in the app. The only other option is “Demo Mode”, which appears to be live, but the information is incorrect. ### 2/5 — Used to be good but no longer updates in a timely way *2025-02-14* As the title says. Last year no problems and worked well but now can be hours between refreshes, so is a little pointless. Something has changed with the app and sadly not for the better. ### 2/5 — No longer updating in a timely fashion *2025-02-03* This app worked fine until recently. Now it is very slow to update (as a widget it never does update) on my Apple Watch- sometimes takes over an hour to get new details. Shame as it used to work perfectly. ### 2/5 — Can’t get back from “API test” *2024-04-14* 4/14/24 after clicking on “API test” in Settings, there is no way to get back to the Home Screen or the settings. App reports power flow to the grid when it is really going to the Powerwalls. I know it isn’t going to the grid, because we are not connected to the grid. Some previous reviews state issues with excess battery use on the iWatch. Has that been resolved? Since the developer doesn’t respond to the reviews, one has to assume that they haven’t been seen and nothing has been done in response. ### 4/5 — Works *2023-11-09* There’s only 2 apps at the moment that let you see your PowerWall on your watch and this one is the best. I would love to see Siri integration added, “Siri how charged is my PowerWall”, “Siri how much energy is being produced”.. a historic graph complication would be nice too. ### 2/5 — No longer works on Apple Watch *2023-07-29* Since recent app update, app no longer works on Apple Watch. Says I have no Power Wall. I first re signed into my Tesla account. I reinstalled the app on iPhone and app still didn’t work on watch. Works fine on iPhone???? ### 4/5 — Supports multiple systems *2023-07-27* Update works great ### 3/5 — Supports only 1 system *2023-07-01* My house has 2 main panels which show up as 2 systems on Tesla. This app will only show one of them. ### 4/5 — Neat *2023-05-21* Neat ### 2/5 — Bit Useless *2023-01-25* I bought this so I could have widgets on my Home Screen to show the state of charge, but it seems to update so infrequently, it’s not worth having them take up the space. Was going to delete, but will keep for the watch app. Probably won’t use that much either once the novelty has worn off. ### 3/5 — Update erforderlich *2022-10-04* Die App funktioniert seit knapp einer Woche nur noch halb. Auf Smartphone und der Watch werden zwar die Ladeströme & Daten angezeigt, aber als Komplikation in einem Modular-Zifferblatt integriert wird die App nicht mehr als Symbol angezeigt! Sollte nachgebessert werden - offenbar eine Umstellung der Tesla-Energy-Server🤭 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Can no longer monitor my powerwall since upgrading to version 2.6 *2024-03-27* Since upgrading to version 2.6 this morning I have been unable to monitor my Powerwall installation with this app. The app starts but the screen is black and the widgets show all monitored elements as ‘zero’. ### 1/5 — EU Issue *2024-03-26* Great app but the last update has broken everything 🙁. Please fix asap! ### 1/5 — Anzeige falsch *2024-03-09* Es wird angezeigt dass Strom von extern bezogen wurde - stimmt nicht. Die App interpretiert die Daten vom Tesla Server falsch. In der Teska App ist es richtig! ### 1/5 — Black screen since recent update *2023-08-06* Since a recent update, there is nothing but an entirely black screen without a single mark on it - just black. ### 1/5 — Useless *2023-05-22* Having logged in the app never worked. It’s impossible to get help and it never started showing any data. Don’t use it. ### 1/5 — This app doesn’t pass a basic test of logic. *2023-04-21* The app was written with at least one major flaw. For example, it shows that the PowerWall provides energy to the grid which is not a valid state. ### 1/5 — Without any function *2023-02-17* The app does not display any number from the gateway. Not worth the money. ### 1/5 — No data displayed *2023-02-16* Log on to Tesla account. App just displays nothing. Only action the works is signing out of the account. ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2022-11-14* Doesn’t do anything useful the Tesla app doesn’t do. Seriously. Save your money. ### 1/5 — Rafael. Vélez *2022-09-25* Just downloaded it and it doesn’t work. Can’t see any action ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — great app *2025-09-15* handy! though it would be better to have some sort of spinner over the previous/cached readings to indicate it is fetching new data ### 5/5 — Notifications would be very useful *2025-03-22* I like to manually switch some household devices on and off depending on kW exported to the grid on a sunny day. It would be very useful if I could set a notification from PWM that, for example, let me know when grid export fell below 4 kW, so I could turn off a device. ### 5/5 — Tut was sie soll *2024-03-28* Gute APP für die Apple Watch. Sehr guter Support! ### 5/5 — Great little app. *2024-01-29* I wish the programmer would take donations. I would flip him a couple bucks each year to keep upgrading the app. NO YEARLY purchase. But donations. Update, app still works fine. I have it on my iwatch, works fine too. ### 5/5 — Such a simple way to monitor Powerwall *2023-12-17* Only had out powerwall a few days and was thinking we were going to have to go down the Home Assistant rabbit hole to get this info but no this simple app has done it all for us. ### 5/5 — Great little app. *2023-08-22* I wish the programmer would take donations. I would flip him a couple bucks each year to keep upgrading the app. NO YEARLY purchase. But donations. ### 5/5 — Slight issue with text overlay *2023-02-18* A good App, works well on both my iPhone and watch, but on the phone the blue text overlays the Today summary, to the developers, is this an issue you are aware of or is this an issue with my iPhone, 13 pro max. Thank you 👍. I can provide a screen grab Update - developer sorted, good communication and all working great, thanks 👍 ### 5/5 — Simple and effective *2022-10-14* Great little app. My main reason for getting this app was that I wanted to be able to view my Tesla Powerwall 2 info on my watch without the need to check my phone. Further to this I have the complication on my watch face showing the current charge as a numeric percentage with a fuel gauge then one tap lets me see exactly what the iPhone version shows. Very easy to setup and exactly what I wanted. ### 5/5 — Great little app. *2022-07-29, version 2.3* I wish the programmer would take donations. I would flip him a couple bucks each year to keep upgrading the app. NO YEARLY purchase. But donations. ### 5/5 — Perfect! *2022-05-09* Just what I needed - now we just need a decent iPad app! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
