User Reviews

Users praise Power Failure Monitor for reliable outage alerts and easy setup, with alarms that wake them during outages and practical uses. Repeated complaints focus on missing data logging, issues with SMS alerts on certain devices, and timestamp handling that hampers tracking multiple events. Overall, the app delivers essential outage notifications but lacks key logging and messaging features noted by multiple users.

Pros

Reliable outage alerts including restoration information
Easy to set up and has a simple, no-frills UI
Alarms that wake you up during outages
Useful in real-world scenarios (e.g., electricians, incubators)
Lightweight and generally works as advertised

Cons

No data log/history to review past outages or events
SMS alerts are missing or not working on some devices (e.g., Pixel/Amazon store)
Outage timestamps are not stored or reset correctly, making it hard to track multiple events

I have used this app for a few years to be alerted to start generator to prevent a flooded basement. I recently reinstalled on a new phone and it keeps shutting itself off during the night. uninstalled! New phone is a Google pixel 8. Having the same issue on my husband's galaxy A13. It worked great for years on my LG G7 thin Q.
