112 bags left, which is 247 days of heating. That is the first thing Granuléo shows you. No more guessing by looking at the pile in the garage: the app counts what your stove actually burned, what you bought, and what the season has cost you. THREE MOMENTS WHEN IT MATTERS A Sunday evening in January, three bags left, and your supplier is closed until Tuesday. With autonomy in days, you saw it coming two weeks earlier and the pallet was already ordered. You have just installed your stove and you have no idea how much to order for the winter. From your first weeks, Granuléo gives you your consumption month by month, so you order on your own figures instead of a guess. Last winter felt longer. Granuléo puts the current season next to the previous one, month by month, so you can see whether you really burn more or whether it was just an impression. WHAT THE APP DOES Your stock is shown in bags and in kilos, with a gauge and an autonomy in days calculated from your real consumption, not from a theoretical average. Average season consumption is shown in bags per day, with the last seven days in view and the month-by-month trend in the statistics. Bags bought and total spending are tracked across the whole season, based on what you actually paid. The history keeps every bag poured and every purchase at the date you logged it, and filters by type of entry. Granuléo does not connect to your stove: you log, the app calculates. It therefore works with any brand and any model of pellet stove, whether MCZ, Palazzetti, Piazzetta, Edilkamin, Ravelli, Harman, Extraflame, Rika or another. WHAT IS FREE, AND WHAT IS NOT Free, with no advertising: stock, consumption, autonomy and stock end date, month-by-month season consumption and one bag type. As a one-time purchase, with no subscription: multiple bag types; cleaning and annual servicing tracking, with the overdue days shown; four-week and season views, plus five more charts (spending, intensity, cumulative, bag split, price trend); CSV and Excel import and export; and the assistant that answers your questions from your own data and your stove manual. Available in English, French, German and Italian.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Hotomatic at none against Granuléo's 1. Hotomatic also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Granuléo's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 7 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
