Search and topic choices stay on this page and reset when you reload.

0.0.857
  • Custom Dashboards and Solar Configurations now show clear visual cues when nothing is configured, making setup pages easier to scan.
0.0.856
  • Installed app updates now verify the target version’s protected-data backup and storage schema before activation, with safer recovery when an update cannot proceed.
  • Backup & Restore now reports operation-specific progress and offers clearer retry and recovery guidance when a Safety Backup export fails.
  • Settings now includes an experimental EcoFlow Bluetooth setup path for compatible devices, with platform-aware capability and setup guidance.
  • Reports now include AC Input History, showing hourly AC input and observed battery-percentage movement while preserving gaps where telemetry is unavailable.
  • Device refresh actions are now scoped to the selected device, making stale readings and refresh outcomes clearer across the dashboard and device views.
0.0.853
  • Backup & Restore now clearly identifies its app database scope: Analyse app databases checks all app databases without changing data, while Export App Database Backups, Import App Data Backup, and App Database Tools are grouped into clearer panels.
  • Backup and restore progress now shows the current phase and a more honest rough time range, including finalization, verification, and backup-history recording steps.
  • Installed app updates now keep the verified Safety Backup gate and pending-install actions usable on mobile, with clear guidance when a new backup is required.
  • Reports now show an explicit unavailable state instead of preview rows when live data cannot be read, while compact message cells and clearer correlation-ID explanations keep results easier to interpret.
  • Live telemetry recovery now explains whether current readings or saved history are affected and links you to Backup & Restore for the next safe step.
  • PowerStream settings now link grid warnings directly to the relevant scoped report, making the underlying evidence easier to review.
  • Startup and recovery diagnostics now preserve your current route, retain useful logs during database outages, and keep storage-constrained safety checks from blocking the app.
0.0.852
  • Backup & Restore now keeps long-running app-data analysis, backup, and restore work usable in the background, with persistent progress, time guidance, safe cancellation, and clear resume or recovery actions after an interruption.
  • Restore recovery now stages and verifies incoming protected data before activation, preserves the existing data for rollback, and reconciles writes made while the operation is running.
  • Installed app updates now wait for a read-back-verified Safety Backup tied to the exact target version, then verify protected data after reload before completing recovery.
  • Reports now include Smart Plug Power & Energy History, with observed-telemetry rollups, explicit coverage gaps, PowerStream comparisons, and provenance-aware exports that do not fill missing readings.
  • OctoMonitor now records app-triggered device actions and shows recent triggers, outcomes, and evidence on device pages, plus a device-scoped execution history report; external controls remain outside the app’s ledger.
  • History reports opened from widget previews now appear in a nested view that keeps the source dialog available, with the selected device name and an explicit close action.
  • Large streamed app-data imports and protected telemetry recovery now handle long transfers more reliably while retaining checksum validation, bounded processing, and recovery-safe data protection.
0.0.851
  • You can now close the main navigation menu directly from its header, with an accessible control that makes returning to the page underneath clearer.
  • Installed app update checks now distinguish a confirmed latest version from a failed or unavailable check, and detect when a newer published version is waiting.
  • When a newer published version cannot be installed immediately, Settings now explains the state and offers a safe reload path while keeping the current app available.
0.0.848
  • Lifetime Energy by Device now shows lifetime solar and AC input, plus AC and DC output estimates when saved telemetry is available, with clear coverage and gap details.
  • Lifetime energy results are now saved and reused, while a fresh scan can continue in the background so you can keep using OctoMonitor and return when it is ready.
  • Startup now recovers from a slow cached launch with a visible retry action and a reliably cached app logo.
  • System errors now retain safer diagnostic details, and View Logs takes you directly to System Logs so failures are easier to investigate.
  • Report coverage drilldowns now use the correct telemetry timestamps and show an unavailable marker instead of crashing on invalid values.
0.0.847
  • Large app-data backups and restores now process large files in bounded batches, helping avoid browser crashes during long imports.
  • Backup & Restore now shows the operation type, backup name, size, path when available, overall progress, elapsed time, and a rough remaining-time estimate.
  • Recovery guidance now uses clearer responsive sections, signs signed-out users in directly, and takes you to the Full Backup section when needed.
  • Data analysis now explains backup-versus-active record differences as an estimate and does not imply that you manually deleted records.
  • Report tables now use compact rows so more results fit on screen while long identifiers remain readable.
  • Settings > About release history now keeps dates readable in dark mode and uses clearer spacing for historical entries.
0.0.846
  • Battery alerts now wait to confirm isolated live zero readings and ignore non-live status values, reducing false low-battery notifications caused by transient telemetry.
  • Delta Pro 12V controls now use authoritative output state and show an unknown state when readings conflict, avoiding misleading status and command confirmations.
  • Custom dashboard widget previews now restore saved socket associations before opening, so associated controls reflect the devices you configured.
  • Telemetry and credential banners are less disruptive, with short-lived MQTT problems filtered out and direct actions to copy details or open credential settings.
  • Successful app-update notifications now use clearer high-contrast styling with safer spacing around notches and status bars.
  • Settings > About now shows the release date beside every What’s New version, making release history easier to scan.
0.0.845
  • Large telemetry, diagnostic, backup, and report exports now handle more records without silent truncation, with clearer progress and guidance for longer operations.
  • Backup & Restore now uses a dedicated progress view with processed-record counts, clearer comparison explanations, and safer recovery guidance for interrupted restores or database upgrades.
  • Reports now include Daily Solar Yield summaries with peak, average, and total generation, plus clearer fallback previews when data is incomplete.
  • Exports now ask for a custom device name, making downloaded files easier to identify across Backup & Restore, reports, and telemetry history.
  • Secure Sync now guides signed-out users to sign in before using protected credentials, with clearer unlock feedback when the vault is locked.
  • Battery and 12V DC controls now wait for confirmed live state before showing or applying device status, reducing misleading readings and actions.
  • App startup and device refreshes are more reliable, with the app shell appearing sooner and device name changes reflected without a full reload.
0.0.828
  • Energy Flow now adds battery readiness, energy-source coverage, historical impact, and Agile tariff opportunities, with clear confidence and next steps.
  • Search for any feature from the app menu and follow guided steps to the right page, setting, report, or control.
  • Backup & Restore now lets you safely cancel a replacement restore, with clearer progress and recovery guidance if work was already under way.
  • Local database upgrades now protect existing app data more carefully and switch to read-only recovery when an upgrade cannot proceed safely.
  • Secure sync now resumes more reliably across tabs and app refreshes in the same browser.
  • Telemetry filter headings now keep clearer spacing and alignment on iPhone and iPad.
