SvitloBot Client vs Svitlo

SvitloBot Client turns your iPhone into a power availability monitor. It uses the phone’s charging status as an indicator of whether electricity is available. In SvitloBot mode, the app sends a signal to the server about once a minute while your iPhone is charging and connected to the internet. The server detects changes in power status and posts updates to your Telegram channel. This mode requires a SvitloBot channel key. You can also enable an instant signal to the server when the charger is disconnected. Telegram fallback is a backup mode that sends alerts directly through your own Telegram bot when charging stops or resumes. SvitloBot requests are disabled while this mode is active. To set it up, create a bot, add it to your channel, and enter the bot token and channel details in the app. Only one mode can run at a time. For continuous monitoring, keep the app open and your iPhone connected to power and the internet. The screen dims, and auto-lock is disabled. No account is required.

Svitlo shows the power outage schedule for your queue — today and tomorrow, accurate to half an hour. The point: the timer lives on your Lock Screen. A Live Activity counts down to the outage and, during one, to the moment the power returns — right on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. • Countdown to the outage on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island • Widgets for the Home Screen and Lock Screen — small, medium, large, circular, rectangular and inline • An “All addresses” widget: home, work and parents in one widget, with a countdown for each • A “Daily schedule” widget: today and tomorrow as two strips, with the hours and the current time • “When will the power go off?” and “Tomorrow’s schedule” commands answer without opening the app: in Shortcuts, Spotlight and on the Action button • A “Power schedule” button for Control Center • Notifications before an outage and before the power returns — you choose how early • Schedule news: we tell you as soon as tomorrow’s schedule appears or the operator changes today’s • Apple Watch: the timer, today’s and tomorrow’s schedule and complications for the watch face • Mac: a timer in the menu bar, a schedule window and widgets • Several addresses — home, work, parents — each with its own notifications • Find your queue by address — street and building instead of guessing, even with a typo or a former street name • Today and tomorrow in one bar — you see at once how many hours are without power • A week ahead from the planned schedule — where the operator publishes one • Find your region with one tap: an approximate location is used once and not stored • “Share” gives a link that adds your queue in your family’s Svitlo with one tap • Statistics: how many hours were without power over a week or a month — only on your phone • An optional “Charge your power bank” reminder an hour before a long outage • Ukrainian, Russian and English • The operators’ schedules are checked every 2–5 minutes • Works without internet: the schedule is stored on your phone • No sign-up, no account Regions: Kyiv, and the oblasts of Vinnytsia, Volyn, Dnipropetrovsk, Zhytomyr, Zakarpattia, Zaporizhzhia, Ivano-Frankivsk, Kyiv, Kirovohrad, Lviv, Mykolaiv, Odesa, Poltava, Rivne, Sumy, Ternopil, Kharkiv, Khmelnytskyi, Cherkasy, Chernivtsi and Chernihiv. Most operators publish a schedule only while restrictions are in force — such a region switches on by itself the moment one appears. No app update is needed. You can find your queue by address in Kyiv, and in Kyiv, Dnipropetrovsk and Odesa oblasts. Some operators publish their schedule only as a picture. When it can’t be read reliably (in Khmelnytskyi oblast — always), the app shows the operator’s own picture with its date instead of guessing — there is no timer or notification for such a schedule. The data comes from the schedules the operators publish. Emergency outages are not part of a planned schedule — the screen says so plainly. For Kyiv and Dnipro the app can tell you when the operator declares emergency outages. The app is independent and is not an official app of any operator or government body. Operator names and street names are shown as the operators publish them, in Ukrainian.
