Bad App

The app can never stay connected when I first bought it. It worked great now it’s terrible.

Times out constantly on the cloud

I’m lucky if I can access my MPPT device even one in 40 tries. I have to constantly refresh because it times out every time. They need to address more reliable connectivity. I have everything set up correctly. Somewhere, there is a data choke point.

I Want to Like This App

I downloaded the app to work with an EcoWorthy 60A moot charge controller. The charge controller works fine, but this app, while somewhat functional for basics, falls short in many ways: It hangs all the time and has to be restarted. It doesn’t show live data, but has to be refreshed. The data it does show is almost useless. No intraday information. I have no idea when the month starts or the day starts, but they are not the first day of the month or midnight. No graphing. Nothing to help troubleshoot the array. I know it’s free, but charge me a couple of dollars and make it useful.

default

the app is defaulting to other lead acid battery from lithium that is set and saved. it just sometimes decides to to default to other lead acid battery, problem is when it switches over ther is no parameters set so if not monitored could just keep charging battery to excessive voltage, how can i stop it defaulting away from lithium

Works Awesome

I’m using the Wi-Fi version (not Bluetooth) it works fantastic. To the other 2 reviewers, change your country code in the app use the down arrow next to it. Has great range and more than enough features for me. Thanks for your hard work

Can’t connect

I have iPhone 14 Pro and l tried everything to connect to my phone. It is impossible. Frustrated l used my old iPod and no problem with connecting it. Is it iOS 18 causing it?

Poor app

Doesnt connect most of the time if at all mite show the device online but then there’s no data just blanks

Great App

Needs attention! Could be very good . Especially history , it’s all over the place. The unit works fine but although it can do 60amp , it can’t do it for long, so more a 40amp mppt .

Can not connect

Can not get the app to connect to the device, just getting “Device Failed to Connect” message. don’t know what the problems is as the instructions are as clear as a foggy day on the motorway.

Hit and miss

Do not buy any device for this app.

This is the only app I can find that works with the cloud box m2.

Unable to connect to my solar controller, it was working fine. Then all of a sudden stopped connecting.

Now I have to replace my mppt controller.

Do not recommend.

Developer updates are non existent. Bugs and glitches.

Finger weg!

Die App funktioniert seit 18.05. nicht mehr, es können keine Daten abgerufen, oder auch keine Einstellungen aufgerufen bzw. verändert werden. Kein Support per E-Mail, keine Informationen vom Hersteller. Meine Solaranlage spinnt seit dem Ausfall und ich kann nichts einstellen. Laderegler sind von Vervor (esmart3) und per Cloud Box M2 verbunden. Diese App ist steinalt und der allerletzte Schrott!

SolarMate Cloud-Box-M2

Bei dem SolarMaterCloud-Box-M2 funktioniert die Cloud seit 18.5.2024 nicht mehr. Siehe viele Rezensionen auf Amazon dazu. Man erreicht bei einem von 100 Versuchen den Solar Wechselrichter. D.h. die Kommunikation Internet App ist alles in Ordnung. Mehrfach getestet neu gestartet und so weiter alles auf dem aktuellen Stand

Great App

I’ve had no problems using it , so 4 stars. Would be great if the (param) “load settings” were clearer about what they do . Nothing mentioned in the instructions either .

*****Edit *****to my original review . It’s stopped working as others have mentioned. You can see it’s online but get an error message when you click on it .

Can’t connect

It just stopped connecting. I have tried everything, updates, restarting the module, reinstalling the module…. I’m very upset because this is a remote installation.

Not updating values automatically

Since last update today, the values are not updating periodically. You have to click the refresh button.
But happy that the app is still for free and running. Thx

Keine Verbindung

Arbeitet dann hört auf zu arbeiten. Cloud-Box zeigt an, dass es online ist und sich verbindet, hat aber jetzt die Verbindung ohne Grund mit dieser App beendet, das Gerät konnte keine Verbindung herstellen

App unreliable

App often never connects

Poor connection

New version can’t find the connection, the button to return to find Bluetooth no working properly hope this can be fix asap

Dangerous app - can kill your batteries

The standard battery cut-out voltage parameters are set too low (at 11.1v “battery under voltage”). The correct value is about 12.06v, which will stop discharge at 50% capacity. With this app, the MPPT is allowed to run a lead-acid or gel battery down to such low levels (5% charged) that it will quickly destroy them … after only a few cycles. Unfortunately, you cannot change the low-voltage cut-out values. When you try to change and save the values, in the app, they simply return to their previously dangerously low levels. This is really disappointing. Such poor design defeats the whole point of having a charge controller in the first place. The prime use of an MPPT is to protect your batteries, but this app helps to destroy them. I’m sure that it must be an easy fix? Please fix it before too many peoples batteries are destroyed.

Verbindet nicht!!!

Also paar mal versucht, irgendwie noch hinbekommen mit der Verbindung.
Keine Ahnung wie, aber ging.
Die Änderungen werden nicht übernommen.
Und nach paar Stunden keine Verbindung möglich.
„Please check the device Code.“
Keine Ahnung was er jetzt von mir will.
Davor ging alles.
Paar Tage, wenn es sich nichts ändert und besser wird. Wird der Gerät mit dem ganzen Kram zurück geschickt.
