Started off good but now it's generally useless. What's the point of an estimate, when you're trying to work on saving energy/money? Half the info is completely wrong, showing your is be $25 and then the bill is actually $100. Graphs run together, can't change views anymore. Graph shows a surge in usage, when no one is home and appliances are shut down. Basically an app for DTE to track you and for them to say they're spending your increased bill fees on "new technology to better serve you"

Lately the app crashes/stops anytime I manually turn off a plug or light. This is very disappointing. And tells me frequently that the costs it reports are estimates. It would be nice if the app would reflect actual costs or closer at keast, since that is data DTE should have, or at least not remind me constantly, interrupting me from using the smart controls. I am starting to think I should use a different smart controller app or ecosystem.

Can control by heating and cooling from anywhere inside/outside the house which is nice. It still has difficulty connecting to the box that is supposed to tell me my daily usage. It also is picky and disconnects from the internet often leaving you unable to control any part of the thermostat.
