Octopus Watch is the easiest tool to manage the (smart) tariffs provided by Octopus Energy in the UK. Octopus Watch is a paymium app for iOS offering both a standard version as a one-time purchase, and an optional subscription with additional features.

Ready to supercharge your savings?

Save significantly on your electricity bill, regardless of whether you're on Agile, Go, Cosy, Flux, Tracker, or any fixed tariffs (basic or eco 7). Thinking of joining Agile? Log into the app with just your postcode and check out local rates. If you want to see your consumption history, you'll need an Octopus Energy account and an active smart meter. Please note that support for Intelligent and Intelligent Go is currently limited, with only default off-peak times available. For the latest status on tariff support check out the wiki: https://wiki.smarthound.uk/octopus-watch/tariffs/ .
