alternative to loop app

lilac_dawn

Is there one please? Loop stopped working for me in March and although I contacted them, have heard nothing back, The IHD that came with the smart meter loses the connection frequently so is pretty useless but I'd like to be able to keep an eye on the hourly usage easily. Are there any recommendations for apps to do this please?

I searched but couldn't seem to search just the Energy board. The threads I found were at least 2 years old so a bit defunct in the world of apps I think.

What's Microsoft Loop? None of those "alternatives" seem to be anything to do with metering and energy monitoring.

I use Bright.  I ditched Loop because it seems to be mostly aimed at trying to sell solar panels.

That's exactly what I thought - yet @MikeJXE seems to be criticising me...?

Thanks both - I will look at Bright first   I didn't mind Loop. I just need to see that the Econ 7 is kicking in at the right time.

What an amazingly sarcastic reply considering you didn't even understand the context of the question

The problem with open forums is that, sometimes, people can be confidently wrong.

Fortunately there's usually someone else who can correct them before any harm is done.

Not a fan of Loop so dumped it in favour of Bright although that seems to be having data problems over the past month. A pity you can't have multiple accounts in the app.  Going to give Ivie a go as well.
