Fantastic solar monitor. It lets me check my solar usage
★★★★★VDS A· Jun 10, 2023
All was good but this app need just onse to install and connect.
★★★★★Euan Taylor· Jul 5, 2022
Really useful app for setting up and commissioning Fronius Inverters, much improved now over older versions which were a little underwhelming.
★★★★★Darren Kidd· Nov 3, 2025
Very polished and really helpful for commissioning. However, if you're an end user / consumer this is no good to you... you can update firmware and connect to the inverter for precise configuration via Solar. Web mobile app and website nowadays.

Horrible experience. I changed my Wi-Fi password at home, and tried to use this app to reconfigure my Fronius Inverter, but I could not do this very simple operation. Still I cannot connect my inverter to my home network. The app enters an infinite loop trying to connect to the FRONIUS Access Point. I really miss the Solar. Web Live app where I used to do all in one single app. Why did you guys split it into two horrible apps? Believe me, I tried everything I could. Tried from Android, from IPad, from IPhone. I also tried the manual Wi-Fi configuration.

Many people have problems connecting to inverter. I found it in the router setting of my phone...c'mon Fronius you got to do better than this.
★☆☆☆☆Troy H· Feb 18, 2021
Stuck in an infinite connection loop just like everyone else leaving bad reviews. Really need the data about how my solar system is running so this is a huge let-down. Very disappointed.
