PRO version of the Fronius App is free again, unknown for how long.
Appcrawl suggests it was $2.99, now free.
Also appears to be pretty old, last update was May 2017, but get it now in case they update and the price goes up again.

  You'd think this would be free always

    Especially after paying top dollars for their Inverter. But Fronius tech is old, they haven't updated their inverter for 5 years. No surprise the app last update was 2017

      What's wrong with old? The inverters are a great design, and so easy to install.
      If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

        Technology evolves every time mate. Its nothing about fixing broken stuff its about keeping up with new technology and offering the best for your customers.

        OLD-tech solid Fuel-Rod based Nuclear Reactors
        may still work… but they:

        • use MUCH more Fuel
        • produce MUCH more Waste
        • Waste needs secure storage for ~300,000 years
        • water has to be kept under pressure (~140 Atm)
        • VERY costly to build (due to cooling-towers & enclosure)

        Compare to Liquid-Fuel, Molten Salt Reactors (MSR):

        • YouTube "Pedersen TEDxCopenhagen"

        Still like Old tech?

          @IVI: That TED Talk was in 2016, in 2018 they received some seed funding … but from what I can tell it's all a theory so far with not even test reactors built.

          If I wanted to use for electricity today … yes give me the Old Tech please.

            @Wolfy: CNL is inviting Start-Ups to build their prototypes, from 2026; IMSR is due Next Decade (worst case ~2030)

            At least, it's Not like Fusion's:

            1. Ready in 20 years
            2. Repeat

            China's got 100's working on New Nukes

            India is sluggish… but I hope they surprise us

            NSW's 4-6 years of drought, which links in
            Clim.Chng.)

            Kugelmass has been going all over the world

            @Wolfy: CNL is Canada's Nuclear Lab

            It has available lotsa
            secure / approved site space,
            suitable for new builds

            Also, CNSC (their NRC c'part)
            is more flexible for MSRs,
            than NRC is

            (So, UK's SSR might get built
            in .CA, for 2 reasons)

            Some start-ups have 1 or 2 MWe
            systems in mind, that may prove
            popular in remote sites (commun-
            ities & industry), & in dev'g
            world app'ns, saving the shlep-
            ping of liquid fossil fuel,
            to feed generators that pollute
            noise & air 24x7, today.

            Don't forget Military app'ns…
            In USA, they've got the $$'s
            to gobble-up all the MSRs they
            can find. I think IMSR could
            go in that direction. I hope
            they can build enough to kill
            Fracking, rather than reduce
            its need for Diesel…

            Fracking's very wasteful of
            Carbon-Positive fossils.

            Lastly, don't forget: New Nukes
            may "only" make Electricity
            when the price-at-the-moment
            is high enough to make business
            sense.

            More interest in heat as product, etc.

            @Wolfy: I think Kugelmass (later ones) &
            Kutsch talks are ~2019

            @Wolfy: Fact Check this: "ORNL's MSRE" it ran for years

            Better: Find some of Gordon McDowell's docu's

  Did they start charging again for it?

  I actually prefer this one now when I'm home (it connects directly to the datalogger, not via solarweb).
  If I need to check on it when I'm not home for some reason, I just use solarweb.com

  Does the pro version show me what I'm putting back into the grid ?? If so where coz im struggling to find it ??

    On the left it shows, so long as you have the additional meter installed.

      Thanks Steptoe …. I dont have the additional 'smart' meter so turns out I can't see this :-(
