## What is Sunflower?

Know exactly what your solar system is doing, right now.

See more details at [https://sunflowermonitor.com](https://sunflowermonitor.com)

Sunflower gives you a live view of every panel and battery in your system - current output, charge state, energy flow - all from your iPhone. Navigate three focused tabs to go from real-time status to deep historical analysis in seconds.

Live
See your whole system at a glance. Customizable overview tiles show solar production, home consumption, grid import/export, and battery state of charge. A visual panel layout map highlights any panels underperforming or offline, so you can spot problems without squinting at a list. Tap any panel or battery for a full detail view including lifetime charge/discharge totals, voltage, operating mode, and historical power charts.

Insights
Understand where your energy comes from and where it goes. An energy flow breakdown shows how solar, grid, and battery contribute to your home across the last 24 hours, 30 days, 12 months, or all time. Insight cards summarize generation and consumption trends for each period, so you always know whether your system is pulling its weight.

History
Explore your generation history by day, month, or year. Day view shows solar, home, grid, and battery power curves - plus an individual panel-by-panel breakdown so you can see exactly which panels produced what. Month and year views let you track trends across solar, home consumption, grid import/export, and battery charge/discharge with a simple series picker.

Smart Issue Alerts
Sunflower watches your panels continuously and flags underperformers. The issues sheet surfaces automated panel alerts with one-tap acknowledgment synced across all your devices.

Always-On Monitoring Add-On
Want access to your data from anywhere - not just when you're on the same Wi-Fi? The optional companion hardware Sunflower Bridge (sold separately) simple plugs into your wall outlet and delivers 30-minute interval readings to the cloud, unlocking the full History charts from any network, anywhere in the world.

Everything else you'd expect:
  - Connect in seconds over Wi-Fi - no complex setup
  - Cloud backup keeps your history safe
  - Customizable panel layout editor to match your real roof
  - Battery reserve control and operating mode management

Free to try. Works out of the box.

### 5/5 — So much better than SunStrong

*2026-06-05*

I had no idea my solar panels provided so much information until I found this app. This app is miles ahead of SunStrong/Sunpower and at a fraction of the price. Thank you to whomever took it upon themselves to make this app.
