## Review summary

Users praise EG4 Monitor for strong real-time visibility of solar, grid, and battery data and find setup generally straightforward across multiple components. However, recurring issues limit satisfaction: data accuracy concerns, login problems, missing grid import metrics, incomplete in-app settings, and readability challenges. Proactive requests include dark mode, larger fonts, and configurable notifications. There are signs of active development and ongoing updates, but parity gaps with the web monitor and reliability concerns are frequently noted across reviews.

### Pros

- Comprehensive real-time monitoring with clear energy-flow diagrams showing solar, grid, and battery status.
- Relatively easy initial setup that works across multiple components (batteries, inverters, etc.).
- Active development and frequent updates that add features and improve reliability.

### Cons

- No dark mode; the UI is bright and hard to read for some users.
- Missing grid import metrics in the app and graphs; lack of parity with the web monitor for grid data.
- In-app settings are incomplete or inaccessible (AC Charge mode, time ranges, etc.).
- Readability issues due to small or hard-to-read numbers; requests for larger, bolder text.
- Data accuracy concerns and login problems reported by multiple users (e.g., 'failed to analyze response').
