Ratings and reviews

This app sucks. It has features, but they rarely work for me. Reason being that 75% of the time when I try to make adjustments on the app a little message pops up that says "network may have trouble". Also it's not real time. I have to constantly refresh it to see current numbers. I don't get notifications for faults or warnings until after I've resolved the issue. At that time when everything's fixed it will send me a message telling me what the error code was. Mostly useless. Could be cool.

Just like the "SmartESS" app before it, all EG4 apps seem to be developed by some of the worst coders in the world. They don't understand time zones, lots of stuff is spelled wrong or makes no sense, and the application is barely functional even in the most basic areas. Even Victron lets you view real-time stats, and even zoom in and out of your graphs. So I bought a "solar assistant" raspberry pi device, and never looked back.

give an option to disable the new message about "Bluetooth being disabled by default". I've turned it on, it's why it's working. I don't need to know it's disabled by default every time I use the app. Never connects to network, even in dedicated 2.4g network with no special characters, and a simple 12345678 password. Latest update fixed the broken bluetooth. Garbage that should be a local solution but isn't.
