User Reviews

Users generally find the OVO Energy app useful for monitoring energy usage and submitting meter readings, especially when paired with smart meters. However, recurrent issues such as failed app updates causing endless loops, slow loading and crashes, and problematic payment features significantly detract from usability. Users report timeouts during top-up payments, hidden core functionalities, and inaccurate credit displays. Overly promotional content unrelated to individual needs also frustrates users. Despite these problems, some appreciate the app's interface and accessibility to energy data, though recent updates have noticeably reduced functionality and reliability.

Pros

Easy to use and provides real-time energy usage especially with smart meters.
Allows submitting meter readings via the app, with an alternative access point through profile icon.
Provides information and options related to energy usage and offers, such as EV charging and air pump offers.
Customers appreciate features that allow tracking payments and energy consumption historically.
App design and interface considered shiny and well-structured by some users before updates.

Cons

App frequently requests updates with no available update in the store, causing a continuous loop preventing access.
Slow performance, crashing, and freezing issues especially after recent updates, making meter reading submissions difficult.
Problems with payment functions: top-up payments often time out, sometimes leading to double charges or inability to top-up.
Inaccurate or delayed updates of account balance and credit display causing confusion about actual available credit.
Removal or hiding of important functions such as payment management and meter reading submission from the main interface.
Excessive emphasis on marketing features and promotions irrelevant to many users, cluttering the user experience.

Recent reviews

If you try to make a top up payment the app just buffers and refuses to allow you to make an additional payment - probably because OVO would prefer to just increase your monthly direct debit amount & have you over pay every month. The app is littered with net zero propaganda about washing clothes on a cold wash,, how to "save" when buying an EV & how to charge an EV anywhere. Just give me an app that works instead of trying to change peoples habits & what car they drive.

It's great as far as it goes. It would be more useful to have an option to add standing charges and vat to the current balance. It would help users keep their account in the black!
