Comments on ShineTools for Android

★★★★☆ Jerome G · Jul 5, 2025
The only software that works well with Growatt MIN XT line of products, it's not perfect but it's better than Shiner and the shiner website, one major feature that is needed is the ability to set AC Stop charge limit independently than DC/Solar Stop SOC limit, having both combined does not work for anyone with TOU as the battery would end up being fully charged by AC and no room for solar to charge the battery during the day, truly a pain not having this ability!
★★★★★ Tom Thompson · Feb 6, 2025
Just don't like having to log in over and over and over, once a day would be okay, just not many multiple times during the day. Other than that, the app allows great interactivity with my Growatt inverters.
★★☆☆☆ Jasper Danial · Jan 16, 2022
Where do I get the End User or O&M Username and Password? My login details that I use with Shine Phone works, but on this app it says login failure here? There are no instructions, I just want to update my Growatt Inverter to the latest firmware.
★☆☆☆☆ Russell King · Apr 3, 2024
It asks for the initial password. What password is that? Use "Forgot password" which asks you for the initial password. This makes the "Forgot password" function useless and the app.
★☆☆☆☆ Gill Parsonson · Jan 30, 2025
Password reset won't work without me supplying the forgotten password. From the reviews this looks like a longstanding problem. Shine/growatt please fix it!
