## Review summary

ERCOT’s iOS app is praised for real-time energy data visualization and refreshed UI including dark mode, but users repeatedly report stability and data issues: frequent crashes and loading problems, questionable data accuracy (demand vs. capacity), readability/accessibility barriers, and problematic notifications. Reviewers also want historical data and data sources. Overall, improvements exist, but stability, data integrity, and accessibility are the main pain points.

### Pros

- Real-time energy data visualization (MW usage, wind/solar/fuel mix).
- Recent UI improvements including dark mode.
- Accessible display of supply-demand graphs (easier to view in the app than in a browser).

### Cons

- Frequent crashes and load failures (launch crashes, spinning, 403 errors).
- Data reliability concerns (demand vs. capacity not aligning; transparency issues).
- UI readability/accessibility problems (confusing onboarding, ghost text, small font).
- Notification reliability issues (missing alerts; disruptive emergency test behavior).
