About

Smart Solar brings the key metrics of your solar power system right to your Garmin watch. Whether you’re on the go, working in the garden, or exercising—a quick glance at your wrist is all it takes to keep track of generation, consumption, and storage status in real time. Do you like the app? A small donation will help me cover server costs and add new features. https://www.paypal.com/donate?business=DUKJP25LKTX62&currency_code=EUR +++++ Features at a Glance +++++ • Energy Flow Diagram – Dynamic visualization of the energy flow between the PV system, household, grid, and battery in the familiar style of the FusionSolar app. • 24-Hour History – Detailed 5-minute graph showing PV generation, self-consumption, and grid draw, including current daily values (yield, consumption, total yield). • PV Forecast – Reliable forecast for today and tomorrow. • Daily Summary – Clear donut charts for energy yield (self-consumption vs. grid feed-in) and consumption (PV share vs. grid draw). • Battery Management – Dedicated details page with a visually rendered storage tower, state of charge (SoC), current charge/discharge power, and daily capacities. • Glance View – A compact quick view of current yield directly in your Garmin widget carousel. • Custom Alarms – Configurable thresholds for PV power, consumption, battery power, and SoC—with vibration and sound notifications when values exceed or fall below the thresholds. +++++ Requirements & Compatibility +++++ ⓘ System: Currently, the app is compatible only with Huawei photovoltaic systems. ⓘ Access: An active Northbound API account is required to use the app. ⓘ You can find setup instructions in the Huawei documentation: https://support.huawei.com/enterprise/de/doc/EDOC1100489440/7fd7bf28 ⓘ After creating a Northbound account, it must still be approved by the system owner. ⓘ To do this, open the smartphone app and, on the system's home screen, select :: → Basic Info → Set Permissions → API Access +++++ Website and Support +++++ https://www.facebook.com/SmartSolarApp/ The app is currently available in its full version, completely free of charge. Please note that the app will become a paid service in the near future. Since each use incurs ongoing server and maintenance costs, the project will transition to a paid model after the testing phase to ensure its long-term operation and continued development. Thank you for being with us from the very beginning!
