Ratings and Reviews
Very cool! One suggestion...
I think this app is so cool as an everyday energy nerd and day job campus energy manager who’s interested in system demand. One functionality I’d like to see is a graph where you can see today’s demand & net demand compared to this day last year, or the past week’s average, or both, or some other similar historical comparison. I like the “yesterdays renewables report” but it would be nice to have that data available more than just one day (ie through what I mentioned before).
Correctable errors, otherwise great
Basically the general functions of the app seem excellent, with the alerts directly useful to consumers, the other data interesting and educational.
Bugs:
* On a smaller-screen iPhone (e.g., 6s) the items below Calendar on the Home Screen are difficult-to-impossible to reach. “Daily Briefing” is only half-visible, and can be tapped with care, but “Twitter” and “About Flex Alert” can only be seen while holding a swipe-up but cannot be tapped. * “Calendar” crashes instantly and reproducibly.
Fix these bugs and my rating would be 4+. Otherwise it seems like a great app. I like the plotting options and all the informative “(i)”-button help screens.
Feature request:
* Add an ability to see multi-day and seasonal trends.
Support previous commenter’s request for a home-screen widget! Show the current alert status, maybe with time remaining before the alert ends, and perhaps the current demand.
The future of consumers understanding their electricity use
I’ve been consuming CAISO’s online reports for sometime now and I’m quite pleased the app has my most often consumer reports easily displayed in the alongside a few new ones. I encourage them to continue their great work. This is the future of consumers understanding how their time of use can have a large impact on emissions, prices and stability of the grid. Keep it up!
