### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2024-02-17, version 1.2.806*

Same as everyone else. Won’t connect but when it does it’s flakey and shows 0% on battery…. Then disconnects

Disgraceful

### 1/5 — Awful App

*2023-10-23, version 1.2.775*

Get it together with your tech. Honestly useless app.

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2023-10-16, version 1.2.768*

Would not waste time with this app or there products

### 1/5 — Junk

*2023-09-22, version 1.2.733*

Doesn’t work at all

### 1/5 — Simarine App

*2023-01-10, version 1.2.647*

This app is so clunky it is almost useless. Wifi connection is so temperamental you could bet 9x out of 10 it doesn’t connect.

As a monitor it is ok but try to change anything like water tank calibration points, it allows you to change the calibration point and then when you have done that you are stuck on that page with no way out. You have to delete the app to get out and when reloading the app it states no devices are setup and leaves you with the black screen of death, even though you are logged onto the Simarine Pico monitor.

It is immensely frustrating. I only recommend using the Simarine Pico monitor directly. That side of the system is quite good. The app is a massive letdown when the rest of the Enerdrive system and components are just so good. 

Really, Enerdrive, you guys should ditch the app altogether. It is so incomplete with big holes in it’s design. Just drop it. It isn’t necessary anyway.

### 1/5 — Fails to connect

*2022-12-27, version 1.2.647*

Reset password, checked have latest iPhone version and says “Unable to join the network”,wish supplier had used Victron

### 1/5 — Doesnt connect

*2022-08-12, version 1.1.366*

Wont connect at all. Big waste of money

### 1/5 — Constantly fails to connect

*2022-04-24, version 1.1.266*

Constantly fails to connect. Have to reset all the time.

### 1/5 — Won’t connect to pico

*2022-04-18, version 1.1.266*

Connected a few times then won’t connect anymore. App needs fixing!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Unstable

*2026-04-12, version 1.3.1909*

This is a disappointing app. Issues logging on, very unstable & a poor app considering the reputation of Simarine products. I can’t use this app & I’m forced to constantly use pico screen which is inconvenient.

### 1/5 — Update now broken

*2025-10-19, version 1.3.1608*

Not that it was great before but at least it mostly worked. Now I can’t get past the load screen telling me all the problems it has fixed. Helllllppppp!!!

### 1/5 — Unable to access app since upgrade

*2025-10-15, version 1.3.1594*

Since updating to v1.3.1594, when I open the app a screen of information appears that I can not click out of. The app is now useless. Was working well before the update. PLEASE FIX!!

### 1/5 — Useless app

*2025-06-26, version 1.2.1379*

Same problem as others, won’t connect. Goes into endless “mandatory firmware upgrade” loop. Totally useless app. I wonder what bugs they fixed since I last tried - didn’t work the, doesn’t work now!

### 1/5 — What a Waste of Time

*2025-06-01*

Where do I start? The app has only connected for me once, I spent a lot of time shutting the device off and on, my phone off and on, my Wi-Fi off and on, forgetting the Wi-Fi network, deleting and reinstalling the app, etc. etc.

Finally I gave up. I turned the Wi-Fi on the device off, and I deleted the app.

What a waste of time and a shame they don’t fix this, as there are no positive reviews - the app was part of the appeal for purchasing a really expensive system, I’ll add my voice to the others (years old) asking you to fix this.

### 1/5 — Oh no!

*2025-05-18, version 1.2.1379*

Updated the firmware and now can’t see Pico on the WiFi at all. 
Big mistake

### 1/5 — Totally useless app

*2025-04-22, version 1.2.1379*

App just locks up on opening screen. Simarine is a great product but desperately needs a monitoring app that works.  They just don’t seem  interested in fixing it

### 1/5 — Complete rubbish

*2024-11-22, version 1.2.881*

Difficult to use and setup and conection is shocking if it ever connects worst app

### 1/5 — Hopeless

*2024-04-28, version 1.2.806*

Does not connect. App won’t even let you go to settings when it is disconnected. Shameful and a very poor reflection in the Simarine brand.

### 1/5 — Random connection success

*2024-03-27, version 1.2.806*

I managed to get it to connect, but the ‘ percentage complete’ gauge at the opening page stays at zero. No information is forthcoming so stuck.

### 4/5 — App functions

*2023-05-27*

Please fix anchor button. It doesn't work like on older version app.  New app button wont bring device info to dashboard.

### 4/5 — Pretty good, despite many bugs

*2022-01-24*

Overall it’s a nice-looking system that is in fact useful. Though there are many bugs to work through with the app and actual firmware of the device, that often get more numerous with each release. It seems like the dev team needs to hire a dedicated QA person to manage regression testing for them.

### 2/5 — Not much works in this app, is it still supported?

*2024-04-25*

Nothing seems to work on this app, settings button is in operative and data shown is not the same as on my device.  When will this be fixed?

### 2/5 — When it works well it’s amazing

*2023-04-05, version 1.2.665*

I like to have the app open on my dashboard while driving. When it does eventually connect it is amazing! I agree with the other review, I am constantly having to close the app, reopen to see a different error. Have lost count with the number of times it has asked me to upgrade firmware to the same version as installed.

I wish it just had Bluetooth like the Enerdrive batteries, it is a lot more reliable.

### 2/5 — App wifi isn’t great, firmware update dramas

*2023-02-18, version 1.2.647*

Simarine gear is great, the app needs fixing!
Wifi is hard to connect to or won’t work at all, also has terrible range - be nice if it worked from the car.. perhaps would be better connected to an external wifi access point (which most caravans don’t have)
Randomly the app says you need to update the monitor, monitor is already up to date but you have to cancel the update, restart the app and reconnect again to get past it. 
App good for setting up once connected but also has issues in calibrating where you can’t get out of a page
