Just updated the android GE app and as well as lots of new things, it no longer checks for HOME connection. It just defautls to AWAY and I have to manually tap the HOME tag to get it to switch to home.
app v3.4.4.5604

I didn’t update the app but got a new phone. All settings the same but it wouldn’t connect to home. Just rebooted it and it is now seeing home. I tried this a few times so why it worked this time I don’t know

alan_johnston Yes. Annoying. But some like it that way. Just give us the choice as an option?

It has always been rubbish. I have a VPN to home so it can always see the inverter but it only looks if I am on Wifi. It doesn't have to be my home Wifi as any Wifi has access through the VPN and so does phone data but it won't look when it is just on phone data.

I don't use the app that much these days. When at home I use the inverter monitor app and when out and about use WonderWatt or the GE web portal.
