The SolarEdge monitoring application enables PV installers and system owners to perform remote monitoring on the go using their mobile Android device, thus maximizing solar energy harvesting.
The application enables users to view the most updated data and be up to speed with their site’s performance.

Application Features:

Dashboard:
The application provides at-a-glance view of the system performance.
Present and past measurements are available:

• Energy – today, last month, lifetime.
• Graph display of daily power, weekly and yearly energy production

Weather:
Current and forecast weather are presented and assist in assessing the system’s performance.

Site Image:
The app allows the display of the site’s image, which gives another visual dimension of the system.

Site List:
A comprehensive list of all the user’s PV sites, which gives high level data on each site (including its image) for easy orientation.

Ratings and reviews

Works decently. Depends alot on the setup at the installers end. Im slightly disappointed that its not "realtime". The very best it can be is an update at 5 minute intervals, and only when hardwired ethernet through your router. The wireless options (cellular or it's own transmitter/receiver connected to your router) are longer update intervals. For production tracking, the 5 minutes is fine, but not for checking what your generation is at any specific moment.

Works pretty well to show Solar System/Battery performance. Very slow and irregular status updates. Often 4-6 hours behind real time. When updates are posted, they do include all data (apparently 10-15 minute increments). No user preference or control settings available in this app, beyond units to display. I want the ability to change my battery from "Time-of-use" to "Backup" when Power Outages are predicted. Can't be done with this app.

It's a little slow to load information, but okay. The current weather portion of the app is not very accurate (compared to dedicated weather apps). UPDATE 3/3/2021: I've revised down to one star. The app hasn't worked since mid November 2020. Apparently there is some sort of server software problem they haven't been able to sort out.
