@badger09 - yep, we were obviously both typing simultaneously.

The calendar, as in the bottom screengrab, with the grey squares is accessed by the tiny icon at the top right corner see the screengrab above it - that looks like a desk calendar - just below where my 81% battery level is and to the right of the wording '<---- Energy Monitoring'.

Hmmm

No idea why, but that calendar icon (which I’d already seen) is greyed out for me whether I’m on Energy Usage or Power tab. The only thing which isn’t greyed out is the 3. menu giving me the option to delete all data. Which, at the moment, is tempting😡

I don't know if that calendar icon worked for me before I deleted the data, as I only actually found and tapped it after I had done so, as I'd seen screengrabs of that function but couldn't see where it was.  But if it's working like mine, you're not missing much, as mine doesn't work as yet.

At least, to their credit, TP-Link are working to try and find a solution - so I'm impressed that they're engaging with customers.

Calendar was working immediately after the firmware upgrade that added the new features. Or at least, it showed each day's usage in the square for each day, with different colours.
It hasn't shown anything since deleting the data (all squares are grey).

Be nice when the new features are finished!

To be fair, it was a pretty big software change for them, so bound to have a few issues in it.

As I said to them, I can work around the date issue personally.  For me, the biggest single improvement is in having consumption to three digits - it truly improves its usefulness for monitoring lower drain items or over the shorter term.

I just brought it to their attention in case it might help them improve it and I'm happy to give it a bit of time if it might improve the app - it's no doubt something small in a line of code, which might, hopefully, be easily fixed.  My approach to them wasn't in the form of a complaint.

Sadly, from my experience with another TP-Link product (P9 Deco whole home mesh wi-fi), they have past form in screwing up firmware and software updates and failing to deliver quick fixes to problems of their own making 

I'm not sure what is going on with my P110 plug after the firmware update, but I have deleted all the previous data and our washing machine is now plugged into it. I will be watching with interest after tonight's wash!!
