Highly recommended

If there was a setting to account for shading that adjusts with the season etc. it would be more accurate. The only way now to do it is to adjust for losses.
I like the simple interface and it gives me a pretty accurate prediction for my system.

So far so good

Great app. Not sure why it doesn’t add the solar arrays together?

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback! We’re sorry the review prompt appeared too soon. We’ll take a look at its timing and make it less intrusive in future updates. Thanks for letting us know!

Neat App

Having solar panels it is always good to know what kind of conditions we might expect. This app is incredibly easy to use and understand and actively reflects the weather. It helps me to plan when to make good use of the energy I have stored and when not to.
I’ve had the app for quite some time and I use it everyday on my phone and IPad. It’s so useful I hope they develop a Mac version soon.

Highly recommended.

Thank you so much for your kind review and recommendation! We’re very glad that you find the app useful and easy to use. Thank you for your support! ☀️

Great App

Very simple to use and setup and has all the functionality of other paid apps - great app

Not great

The predictions are all over the place and often seem completely disconnected from the actual weather forecast. I can check the BOM well in advance and see conditions that clearly don’t match what the app is predicting.

Even on a fully overcast day, the app can still predict around 65kWh of generation, when in reality we’re nowhere near even 15kWh. That makes the predictions pretty useless for planning battery usage.

It would also be really useful if the app allowed users to enter their actual generation at the end of each day. Surely feeding real-world data back into the system would help improve its future predictions.

At the moment, I just don’t find the predictions reliable enough to be useful.

Bisher super 👍

Wenn man jetzt auch ein Wochen oder Monats Trend hätte und seine realen Werte eintragen könnte. Evtl noch Speicher einfügen wäre das super.
Ich bin gespannt was noch kommt 👍🌞

Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback und Ihre Vorschläge! Das sind interessante Ideen. Wir werden sie auf jeden Fall im Hinterkopf behalten und prüfen, was wir davon in zukünftigen Updates umsetzen können. Vielen Dank für Ihre Unterstützung! 👍🌞

Massively under forecasts

Early days yet but it would seem the app massively under forecasts. For example today the forecast was 18kWh and actual was 30kWh generated. That is about 80% of the best ever. All the weather apps correctly forecast a sunny day but this app rated it as a weak day for solar. So sadly the app is of no use.

Thank you for your feedback and for sharing these details. We’re sorry the forecast did not match your actual solar production. We’re continuously working to improve the accuracy of the estimates, and feedback like yours helps us identify where improvements are needed. We hope to provide more accurate results in future updates.

Perfect for solar

Clear, concise info perfect for planning solar use

LUMINEUX !

L’outil qui me permettra de dimensionner mon installation au mieux, c’est vraiment un beau travail !
Merci à vous, en plus, d’avoir pensé à faire sans devoir se connecter à un compte. Surtout, gardez çà, c’est précieux !
Après quelques jours, une idée me vient:
Si j’ai un chargeur qui est limité à une puissance maximale inférieure à celle des panneaux, il serait bien de pouvoir indiquer cette limite dans les paramètres du parc solaire…
Sinon, pour moi ça fonctionne bien !

Merci beaucoup pour votre excellent avis ! Nous sommes ravis que notre application vous plaise. Nous recueillons toutes les suggestions de nos utilisateurs, et les demandes les plus fréquentes ainsi que les améliorations les plus utiles seront prises en compte dans les prochaines mises à jour. Merci pour votre soutien !

Really good indicator

I have solar and a storage battery, heat pump, solar diverter and Ev that I like to manually control. Rather than leaving it to AI, as I am personally unpredictable with my usage. I am also on the old solar fit payments so I get paid even if I use & store every last drop of solar. So this is a good way to predict what solar I am going to be able to use and save and not fill the battery up from the grid.

Thank you for your review! We're very glad to hear that you're enjoying the app and that it's helping you manage your solar energy. We really appreciate your support!

Mon avis

Application très plaisante et assez juste avec la réalité
Dommage qu’elle ne prenne pas la température des panneaux pour en calculer la déperdition
Mais il faudrait mettre un capteur ce que j’ai fait
Il suffit de calculer ensuite, entre 0,3 et 0,4 % par degrés, cela peut être moins avec tu TopCon
Mais bravo cette petite application est une réussite
Et pourtant j’ai déjà un gros dashboard

Merci beaucoup pour votre avis et vos remarques détaillées ! En effet, de nombreux facteurs peuvent influencer la production solaire, et il est difficile de tous les prendre en compte. Nous avons essayé de trouver un bon équilibre entre simplicité d'utilisation et précision des prévisions. Merci encore pour votre soutien !

Super App

Habe schon andere verwendet diese ist die übersichtlichste. Teste sie schon seit einigen Wochen, einfach nur Super

Response from developer

Vielen Dank für Ihre Bewertung! Das freut uns sehr. Wir wünschen Ihnen weiterhin viel Freude bei der Nutzung der App! 😊

Great product 1 feature request

Great product, tweaking it a the moment but provides the info I need. Could you add the ability for us to provide our power generation stats, over a week for example. That you could then use to dial in the forecast accuracy for our setups.

History & setup

Great app very useful. Two improvements would be the ability to store and transfer my solar setup to another device. The other is having a bit of a history to the predictions so I can go back and compare my generation to the end days predictions

Awesome application.

Congrats to the developer. Needed application.

Fantastic Very Accurate ,,,

Updating my review since last update, it now forecasts according to solar array, this is brilliant now, thank you.

One question why does it show mwh & not kWh on the main forecast ?

Would be better if you could add the Solar Array KWh And the app make the calculations according to the solar size of individuals.

Thank you for your feedback! We really appreciate your suggestion. 😊 This functionality is already planned, and we hope to add support for personalized solar system calculations in future updates.

Excellent work

This app just works

Thank you very much for your kind review!

Excellent!

App wird immer besser ! Jetzt auch mit Angabe seiner PV-Anlage und Ertragsvorhersage. Danke für die tolle App. 👍🏻👏🏻

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the great feedback! 😊 Really glad you like the app and its simple design. Dark mode and support for panel tilt and orientation are excellent suggestions — I’ll definitely consider them for future updates. Thanks again!

Excellent!

App wir immer besser ! Jetzt auch mit Angabe seiner PV-Anlage und Ertragsvorhersage. Hier gibt’s allerdings einen kleinen Bug 🐜, die Einheit stimmt nicht beim Ertrgag. Die Anzeige zeigt statt z.B. 4kWh Ertrag bei einem Balkonkraftwerk 4MWh an 😂, wäre super, stimmt aber leider nicht 🤭. Aber wird bestimmt mit dem nächsten Update korrigiert. Danke für die tolle App. 👍🏻👏🏻
