SUNNY PORTAL App Reviews

I think this is a great idea to have this app but it lags in responsive updating. Im already a day behind in results! Cmon folks, I know you can get this app to run better than this!! I guess Ill have to keep it because it is the only app out there. :(

I have a 4s and the app rarely connects to download the data to populate the graphical information on the status of the power production from my system. About only 1/15 tries will work. Having said that, the few times I have been able to connect, it seems like the data only gets updated once every three hours or so. They need to work on expedited status updates and improve connectivity with this app! If they do Ill improve my ratings to 4 or possibly 5.

Easy way to monitor my solar system! Nice charts for quick view! Helped me recognize that I had a connection problem by showing that My KWH production was down by 20%.

Log-in bug, after entering credentials app crashes. Upon reopening then works ok. Updates to this app and web portal are no where near real-time (only 2-3 times/day) so, not really useful for any kind of real-time or even recent data. Not much point in having an app that tells me about yesterday. Feb 11 update: app no longer works at all, will not login to server. Deleted app and reinstalled, no help. Feb 12 update: after multiple reinstalls app back to where it was, working but updates often many hours late (this is a portal/server issue as app mirrors web portal report and web portal just as far behind). I have confirmed w/SMA tech support that my system is reporting to server every 15 min yet server updates only every several hours. Feb 14 update: no portal update at all. As-of 6pm showing only yesterdays data. Overall, a very poor showing from a technology driven company. I note that app support is all in German, so clearly this company could care less about English speaking clients who have paid for their products (app might be free but inverters and web box werent!). Doubtful they even read these reviews.

Just installed my sunny web box. I can log into that just fine. Cant login in to app though and cant find support anywhere. help!

Very, very useful for SMA PV system owners, but this particular version crashes EVERY time you attempt to change timeframes, such as changing years or months in the pull down lists. Also, I wish there was an iPad version, but for now, just making the app stable again should be the priority.

I would like to use this app but it won’t connect. Keeps giving error “Communication with the Sunny Home Manager is currently not possible. Check the Sunny Home Manager Internet connection and try again.” Yet I have no problem connecting on the web portal and my system data is updating close to real time.

Ah, that fine German software engineering: Enter your credentials wrong when you first start up the program and it saves them and (instead of telling you to try again) crashes. And when you restart it, it uses the saved (wrong) credentials, and crashes. You have to uninstall and reinstall and never get your username or password wrong. We have no quality and we have no control.

Apparently this app is not for USA Sunpower SMA inverters and solar systems, so beware.

I have the latest OS on my iPhone...and this app will ALWAYS crash as soon as it starts to "load plants". Oddly enough, it works on my older iPad. You would think that as a iPhone app, it would work there...right?

I have been using this app for over a year. I have a iPhone 6 with iOS 8.3 and Sunnyboy 1.09.5R. It now crashes on launch starting this morning and after some time restarting it, it loads. Is this a server problem we might expect in the future?

This app worked for the first few weeks that I had my solar panels. It worked well and showed me my info after only a short delay. I dont know if its after I upgraded my OS or what, but the app always closes before loading.

App does not show energy balance as shown in the pictures (3rd pic from the left). This snapshot view would be most helpful to the common solar owner. Please fix.

This app worked when I first fired it up with the password that they sent me. When I changed my password it has never opened up since. This app needs some major work.

App doesnt work on iPhone 6.

New iOS9 app on ipad crashes every time on open once you authenticate your account. Running iOS 9.0.1 on iPad mini 2.

Crashes during authentication. Nice idea but someone should have tested the app

App crashes after logging in. How did this app even get approved?

Get it together

Hasnt worked in months. This app crashes during opening every time I try to use it. Please fix.
