Older versions of iPhone are not supported by the 4.x. I have an old iPhone that I use for Power Flow monitor and it would not get the 4.x.
You can install our site as a web app on your iOS device by utilizing the Add to Home Screen feature in Safari. Please see this thread for more details on this.

I was referring to the removal of balanced mode as being lame, not your reporting of the change. Sorry for any misunderstanding.OK??? I am just passing along information. No reason to call it lame
Date time | Home Usage (kWh) | Solar Energy (kWh) | From Powerwall (kWh) | From Grid (kWh) | To Grid (kWh) |
Date time | Home (kWh) | Solar Energy (kWh) | Powerwall (kWh) | Grid (kWh) |
Hmm, interesting because the displays on the app suggests that the information is still there. That is, you can for any given day, see; in, out, and state of charge. The API that Home Assistant is using also appears to still be able to get the values (don't know if they're calculating it or reading it directly).I tend to agree with most of the comments and have similar frustrations.
One thing that really changed was how data is downloaded.
The previous app provided the following data;
Date time Home Usage (kWh) Solar Energy (kWh) From Powerwall (kWh) From Grid (kWh) To Grid (kWh)
This is what the new app downloads;
Best I can tell is that the new Powerwall (kWh) data is net usage, so difficult to determine amount of discharge per period.
Date time Home (kWh) Solar Energy (kWh) Powerwall (kWh) Grid (kWh)
Yes I can see that within the graphics, but it used to be part of the downloadable data, to allow observing efficiency. Which I have been doing for the past 20 months.
If I am missing something, do let me know, I am all ears right now.
Issue with Go Off Grid Function I describe what happened when I intentionally did just that. Not gonna make that mistake again.I wonder if the "go off-grid" mode will be useful for those folks waiting for permission to operate (PTO). If I understood it correctly it basically doesn't allow power export but it will grab from the grid if the Powerwall runs out of juice. I wonder what happens if you try to start a load that exceeds the Powerwall rating (either for in-rush or sustained).
The inability to do "off grid support" seamlessly is pretty consistent with the instructions that said manage your loads. A little disappointing but not surprising.Issue with Go Off Grid Function I describe what happened when I intentionally did just that. Not gonna make that mistake again.

Thinking about it some more I'm guessing that when in "off grid" mode the system is not staying in sync with grid, it probably can't because it uses frequency shifting to signal solar inverters. So when it needs to bring the grid in it has to do a shutdown down, switch the relay and then sync w/ the grid.
Yes value is there, but the tick marker that was shoving the value at any given time is removed.The value is still shown -- its just at the top of the graph and stays in the same place as you move the vertical line. Like a lot of the changes, there is a decrease in usability vs the old version...
Interestingly my wife (we're both on Pixel 3 XLs) still doesn't have the update available on the Google Play store.As I mentioned, my app is up to date. I just checked again, no update available. My wife doesn't have it either after updating app, we both have iPhone XR.
Nor does my Samsung Galaxy S10, but then I decided to turn off the update for this anyway from all the reports here. Now both my phone and car are in update purgatory from Tesla's poor sw. Don't have any control over the PW and Gateway.Interestingly my wife (we're both on Pixel 3 XLs) still doesn't have the update available on the Google Play store.
The new graphs definitely provide some new information but they no longer allow me to see trends that were easy to see with the old graphs. After the first week on v4 on my tablet (loaded APK manually), I haven't bothered returning, at least not for monitoring energy products.Any fully explored these graphs? They come come toggling the little bar graph thing just about the powerwall icon.
You can see the side effect of me accidentally putting it in the time based mode instead of the self consumption that I had been running.
I don't get the total energy Gaussian chart. Seems confusing and irrelevant. Maybe my brain is just not tuned for it.Any fully explored these graphs? They come come toggling the little bar graph thing just about the powerwall icon.

You use a lot of energy. With a pool and AC we will top out at 30 kWh in a day. In the winter our house may only use about 15 kWh in a dayAnyone fully explored these graphs? They come come toggling the little bar graph thing just about the powerwall icon.

Yesterday with the AC running and the pool pump running for 6 hours we used a total of 25 kWhMy ac can use 40 to 60kwh per day.
