Inconsistent
I’ve used this app for 2 years now. It seems to loose chunks of the bar graphs everyday and the LIVE information is often wildly inaccurate between the app and the battery. At time of writing, the inverter is at 3.6kW yet the app is saying it’s 1.6kW.
It’s impossible to reliably know what the charge state of the battery is.

Very poor app
1. Sometimes get stuck and requires logout/login.
2. Scheduled charging setting won’t change - stuck at last setting. Deleted app and data, logged in again, but still the same issue
3. data display is rudimentary
4. Should be able to change algo settings from the app Could be sooooooo much better!!!
update: 7Jul24 The app b often doesn’t update - logout and login again is required. Pressing the refresh button is to no avail. This unreliability means there’s no benefit to the Solis App.
Pure Drive support is extremely poor as is there complaints department, mainly due to being so unresponsive.

The ideal app for the householder
Provides the information the householder needs to monitor their system, something other reviewers do not understand and see the app as a statistical tool.

Not sure this is actually good enough to be beta
Where to start.
In terms of data there is a nice visual graphic that tells you where the electricity is going and this matches the Solis app. That works.
There is no way of finding out what it has been doing during the day that I can find. So you only get a snapshot of time. It looks pretty but of no use monitoring the system over time to work out payback etc.
Programming the system is utterly useless. I have Puredrive battery and Solis inverter. I used the Puredrive app to set charging and set a 10 minute charge window to test the app and function. When I went to the inverter to check what is set it has programmed two completely different times and it is not a 10 minute span but 17 hours! The functionality to programme batteries is clearly incompatible and broken.
Best thing to do with the app in its current state is delete it. If the developer wants clear feedback as to what is not working I am more than happy to share information if it improves the app.
