From the standpoint of a free app that taps into Rainforest's (economically priced) hardware, it's a perfectly functional app. Does it have room for improvement? Absolutely... One thing I'd like to see is a quicker way to switch between two devices/meters. Right now, it's seven taps through menus to flip views for dual meter properties. I suspect this app is OEM, though, and we likely won't see any updates from Rainforest. I've got say, though, Rainforest's support staff are absolutely great!

Graph of usage is extremely frustrating. It usually doesn't show upon going into Utility Meter. Exit and re-enter and wait? Maybe then, maybe not. There's no way to zoom in or see exactly when the energy usage changes. Isn't this the whole purpose of the app? They finally have utility TOU pricing plans built in which is very welcome but show me the totally price over a day or week or month would be much better than just the current cost of energy being used. As I said, better than it was.

So far Eagle 3 works for me. Plugged in and configured app. Shows real-time energy use and historical data. PPL electric. Came pre-configured. Used hard wired network connection. Update: The website interface is much better than the app. The app is slow compared to the website portal.
