SUNNY PORTAL App Reviews

Idiots must have written this app

Ive used the previous version for a couple years. While basic, it worked. DO NOT UPGRADE TO THIS NEW APP. It absolutely will not work. As soon as you type in your login and password, it crashes. Theres no way to even use it. Its hard to believe this app is legit. It makes me think SMA will be going out of business very soon, so if youre getting solar do not choose SMA inverters.

Works for me

I usually dont do reviews, but when all Ive read was bad I felt like I had too. Theres nothing special from this app thats why 4 stars but it does work. Hasnt crashed on me yet and this is day 4, and I open it several times a day. I guess Im a little excited, my solar is new. Later on I probably wont even open the app unless someone asks about my solar.

I really want this App to work

But it crashes every time I open it and logon. Please fix it ASAP.

Crashes on iPad... Works on iPhone

I wish the app gave more info on how much you save vs use. I see production but have to get my electric bill and try to figure out how to see what I am actually saving.

Crash crash crash

Continued issues crashing.

Big let down

It worked great until Sept 15 now it crashes when I try to open it. Hasnt worked in months. Someone please fix. It was awesome!

Worthless

And I spent time to write this why? Crash^9

Worthless app

Just got my inverter registered and downloaded the app. It crashes every time its opened. I dont think SMA cares. Once youve bought their equipment, what are you gonna do? Choose another manufacturer next time, thats what!

Worst app ever

Whoever wrote this app should be fired. Crashes on identification. Tried several times to reinstall on I phone 6

Huge waste of time

Im a solar installer trying to use this to monitor our customers day to day. The App crashes nearly every time on use. Thank god the inverters are better as this software is a real brand killer. So bad it should be withdrawn.

Not working anymore

Since my iPhone was upgraded to version 9.2 the application ceased to work. It was working fine until this upgrade

Crashes on start...worse than useless

I have a 5.3kw system with SMA inverter. the system itself works well but the remote monitoring via Sunny Portal app is sketchy at best. mine always crashes on opening, and when it is working only shows production, not consumption as the pics show for the app. Im grateful its free as Id be quite irritated if I had to pay for it. this software has a lot of potential but needs to be addressed by SMA before it is really ready to go. I love my sunny boy inverter. I loathe this app, and SMA seems to not care one iota. Id rate it below one star if I could.

Crash!!

I tried downloading to iPad and iPhone. I have the latest IOS on both. Cannot get through the sign in authentication process without crashing. I have never seen such a useless app!

Unusable

App crashes immediately when started. Cant even get past the login window:

Not impressed

Had the app on my phone for 11 days, worked perfectly well for the first 7 days, has not worked for the last 4. When it works its a fine app. I dont know why it stopped working and I dont know what to do to make it work again.

Sad

It opened so I could log in and then crashed when authenticating. It has never stayed open for more than 2 seconds since then. It opens and says authenticating before crashing.

Doesnt work

Crash on start. Was working fine until yesterday. Please fix.

Not as described!

Im not sure what version of this app is depicted in the screenshots of the app page, but my interface for this app looks nothing like it. There is no "current" tab to see generated and used power and there is no option for further details of each day, showing power generated as it shows in the screenshot. Hoping SMA will update the app to the one that is shown in the actual App Store. Other competitors have had more advanced monitoring features for years! Get with it SMA!

Too basic.

I also had the problem of app crashing upon launch after I had changed my password. Failed authentication = panic. I deleted and reinstalled and that seemed to solve the problem. Also, there is no reason this app shouldnt show the exact same info as the web client. Live production should be represented and is painfully absent. Design leaves MUCH to be desired. I know that gear heads think that the info is more important than the way its presented. Those gear heads are wrong. An app should be better than its corresponding web client, not worse.

Worked for me, very simplistic app

Tried logging with either the send or login at the middle of the page caused the app to crash, BUT LOGGING IN with the LOGIN at the top right of the first screen worked. If the app crashes for you, delete, reinstall and try using the login link at the top right of the screen... It worked for me. Otherwise, the app is simplistic but does give a nice and quick overview of your system. Only 4 stars as its a simplistic app and the fact that it crashes during login if you use the wrong link.... Youd think they would fix that!!
