Anyone used the Solarman App? (BTW- it’s rubbish)

Has anyone used the solarman app? It seems terrible. Issues I have- altho the total generated is correct and matches my meter, when you look at the “statistics” history by day it has loads of 0 days (clearly nonsense), and the summarised total is just 20% of the total meter number. Again, clearly nonsense
- it has total generated today on the first screen which works for a bit then just wipes to 0 half way through the day. Annoying
- the only thing that’s vaguely useful is the “real time” page that shows a graph for the day (no actual total number, just a visual, see above - I literally have to write down yesterday’s closing number and compare to todays closing number to work out today’s generation). Terrible. It has generated and it has consumed (red)- is this accurate? I know it’s not my actual usage, but is that what the inverter uses? Seems to be a few hundred watts at peak.
sadly as my inverter is Rayleigh I can’t use any other app at the moment
