LUKA Connect gives owners of a LUKA energy management system secure access to their dashboard from a phone or tablet. Sign in once and the app connects automatically to your own LUKA device over an encrypted connection, then opens your dashboard full screen — solar production, battery, heat pump, EV charging and grid usage, exactly as you see it at home. The connection is made for you. There is nothing to configure, no addresses to type in, and no VPN profile to install on your device. WHAT YOU GET • A secure, encrypted connection straight to your own LUKA device • Your full dashboard, in real time • Automatic reconnection when you switch between wifi and mobile data, or come back to the app after a while • Sign in once — the app remembers you • No tracking, no analytics, no advertising PRIVACY LUKA Connect collects nothing about you. Your email address and password are used only to sign in to your energy system. There are no analytics, no crash reporting, no advertising identifiers and no third-party tracking of any kind. Your energy data stays between your device and your phone. BEFORE YOU DOWNLOAD LUKA Connect is for existing LUKA system owners. You will need the account details provided with your installation. Without a LUKA system there is nothing for the app to connect to. Questions about your system or your account? Contact CDI Projects.
