Not as good as it should be, just does the job,
With small tweaks it could easily be 5 stars.
Should be two main windows for powerwall users, simple power flow with all information on screen, Energy usage bar graph view with very detailed and instantanious view.
Everything else in settings accessable in both windows.
I have 3 separate powerwalls with 3 separate devices monitoring them but the names dont appear in the windows i use the most that is Power wall simple view and detailed graph view , the name of sytem monitored should all ways be present.
Power flow page should have all basic details in view ie. Powerwall under that should be percentage of battery in the circle a light green fill colour should fill the circle to represent the battery status 100% the circle is all light green 0% the circle is black.
Solar is the same with light yellow colour fill representing the solar status if you have a 10kw solar system then when it is delivering 5kw the circle should be half yellow.
Home circle should allways be fully filled by a colour combination of what is supplying the power unless there is no power used, this will give an immediate percentage in graph form of which power source is used ie half green half yellow represents 50% battery 50% solar , i would use red to represent grid power imported and gray power exported to grid, so home circle would change to these 3 colours in the percentage used.
Grid circle would either be fully light grey if power is going to the grid or fully red if power is imported to the house with the ammount of power in the circle as it is.
This would then give you all information needed on one nice screen without having to go back and fourth to different screens.
The bargraph is not detailed enough to see smaller power usage and time frame is not easily seen it is too rough an estimate at the moment, name of user is not present on screen.
No older ipad support and not ipad friendly.
No Imac support.
Reminder this is 2020 come on Tesla pull your sox up i would like to buy a car now but i am wondering if i should when a simple app is not that well designed.
