Energy Consumption Analyzer (v. 2.3.10) Разработано Christoph Zens |
This application keeps track of your energy consumption. Add your meters for gas, electricity, or water to the database and record the current meter readings from time to time. Readings can be color-coded and comments may be added to remember special situations which may explain unusual energy usage. A regular reading interval is not required, take a reading whenever it is convenient.
From the entered data, the application calculates the average normalized rate of consumption per hour, day, week, or month (bewteen two readings) and draws a graph showing the consumption rate over time. The total amount of actually used energy during each day, week, month, or quarter is displayed as a bar graph or table. If the average cost per unit is provided, the graphs can also show the amount of money instead of energy.
Meter exchange or reset is detected automatically and consumption data is recorded seamlessly across the reset.
Pinch zoom can be used on the trend and bar graph pages. In landscape orientation, comments are displayed in the list view.
Indirect metering is supoorted. In this case, the meter value is multiplied with a certain factor to convert it to the final energy value. Two separate unit texts can be entered, one for the meter and one for the actual energy value.
Meters can be marked to count backwards, which can happen with prepaid meters, showing the amount of remaining prepaid energy instead of used energy.
Virtual meters can be used to display the sum of individual meters and do simple unit conversion, for example from m3 to kWh. Please note that you should read your physical meters which are part of a virtual meter all around the same time for best results.
Meter data can be imported from and exported to CSV files from the context menu of each meter (long-press on the meter entry). Meters can also be edited and deleted via this context menu.
In addition to meter readings, sensor data like temperature or wind speed can be recorded. At the moment, this data is shown separately, but may be shown in combination with meter data in future releases.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The trend graph does NOT show total amount of energy used. The bar graph is used for this information. The trend graph shows usage values normalized to a certain time period (hour/day/week/month or year). If your meter records a usage of 10kWh within one hour (10kW power), the trend will show a usage rate of 240kWh per day for that measurement point (10kWh/h = 10kW power rating, normalized to one day -> 10kW * 24h = 240kWh). This is by design.
In case of questions or bug reports, please check the website (FAQ section) or send me an email. It is technically not possible for the developer to reply to a comment in the market or otherwise contact someone who left a comment.

[2013-08-12] A Google User: Very good but not complete Excellent app, but can you also fix an energy calculator inside statistics or graphs? For example to compute energy to heat up water you need to multiply water volume with delta T. To add a virtual meter that can be any combination of the other meters would be ok. Now the virtual meter can only be a linear combination of other meters. Also, add the posibility to see 2-3 curves in a plot and be able to export the picture in jpg format. Thanks a lot! |

[2013-08-06] A Google User: Great app to monitor electricity consumption Does what it's supposed to do with minimum fuss. |
|
[2013-08-06] A Google User: Ok. |
|
[2013-06-20] A Google User: Was ok I have been using this for about a year without putting in the price of the units. I decided to do this and it dumped all the readings that I had put in. Oops not so good. |
|
[2013-06-05] A Google User: Great Like it |
|
[2013-05-11] A Google User: Great app Great app for free. Would be 5 star for me if it had a button to turn on the phone flashlight when reading the meter. |
|
[2013-05-07] A Google User: As it looks app is dead ... ... at least author web page no longer exist. Also no easy backup to any of cloud systems - imo, mandatory nowadays. Have to csv, but have then manually search and export to cloud. Otherwise have been using to enter various meter for at least 2 years and was happy with. Have tried many, but this one beats all. But no future development and no easy cloud export for up I'm using regularly, can not give more then 3 stars. |
|
[2013-05-02] A Google User: Great app. One improvement would be to be able to add all your daily energy costs together. For instance if the costs of gas usage fall, it may be that electricity costs are rising. Total energy cost is really what matters. |
|
[2013-04-28] A Google User: Very user friendly analyzer It helps to reduce my electricity bill. Thank you very much. I suggest that if you can modify the app to change the unit price with respective to the unit range then the usability of the app may increase further. ex: form 0~30 - 5$ , 30~60 - 7$ etc + total price*xx.x% (Taxes) + fixed charges |
|
[2013-04-27] A Google User: Wish it had power company interface This looks like a great little app and I was hoping it would be among those that utilize "Green Button" technology (an interface to your power provider), but unless I'm missing something it requires that you manually input your meter readings. Checking all our meters everyday seems like extra work to me. We live on a ranch and have solar net metering, plus separate meters for the barn, home, etc. I'll keep looking for a Green Button compatible app. |
|
[2013-03-27] A Google User: Very useful This app did exactly what I want. Thanks so much. |
|
[2013-03-24] A Google User: Useful tool Best what i find in this kind of apps. I will appreciate to have automatic backup to cloud or even store all data on cloud, to have my data available everywhere and with any device. |
|
[2013-03-09] A Google User: Perfect! This app provides a great platform for keeping track of consumption of all kinds. Even used it for petrol and mobile data usage. Great app. Easy to back up your data too. |
|
[2013-03-08] A Google User: Best app for power metering Best app for power metering in Play Store |
|
[2013-02-16] A Google User: Useful tool User friendly, compact tool. Auto backup to cloud (GDrive, Dropbox) would be cool, tho |
|
[2013-02-13] A Google User: Limited options? I have a high&low rate electricity Meter with a stepped tariff. Now I am all for being corrected but this (common in the UK) configuration seems to be beyond this app. Shame. |
|
[2013-02-09] A Google User: Motorola Droid Razor Maxx Seems like a great job so far. Been using it about a week. There is one thing that would be nice to add. The ability to link this app to a local weather app and chart the temperature along with your power used. I think this would provide some good information especially for someone using a heat pump or electric space heaters or even air-conditioning. Thanks |

[2012-12-29] A Google User: Excelente Excelente |
|
[2012-11-26] A Google User: Great Needs backup to cloud/cloud sync |
|
[2012-11-11] A Google User: Superb! Very useful app |
|
[2012-10-12] A Google User: Great App I am unable to edit reading though on my GS3. |
|
[2012-10-10] A Google User: SGS2 Thanks for the great work here, it would be also nice if you add the possibility to export as Excel. |
|
[2012-09-12] A Google User: Excellent Great little app, flexible and does what you need it to. Developer responded to bug report almost immediately and resolved within 24 hrs! |
|
[2012-08-01] A Google User: Data entry can be improved Nice app, but needs improvement to data-entry. Now i have to select each meter in the menu and enter the readings with the keyboard. It would be much easier if all the meters were shown in one data-entry-screen. Also, using a scrollwheel instead of the keyboard would be nice. |
|
[2012-08-01] A Google User: Great App Perfect for tracking trends of your power usage, and determining what changes most effect your power consumption. |
|
[2012-07-23] A Google User: HTC Evo Works perfect! |
|
[2012-07-22] A Google User: Energy consumption analyzer Very very clever ....... First class |
|
[2012-07-20] A Google User: Really Useful! I use this to keep an eye on my energy supplier - very useful app. Thank you!! (Samsung Galaxy W) |
|
[2012-07-18] A Google User: Great app! |
|
[2012-07-15] A Google User: Great Great, lots of options too. Would be nice to get a graph just of total units used over time, rather than the current graphs which just show the units/day etc. |
|
[2012-07-08] A Google User: Samsung charge Working great. Lots of options. Tracking accurately. |
|
[2012-07-08] A Google User: Nice app Please add an option change unit cost at an entry screen - otherwise it's impossible to track readings and their cost when unit price changes |
|
[2012-07-06] A Google User: ok very usefull |
|
[2012-07-05] A Google User: DroidX2 ¿ The Best Utility Recorder on the Market. Record's information to SDCard. Tried others but didn't do as much. No problems. Use it every week to figure out utility bills. Give it 100% |
|
[2012-06-02] A Google User: Galaxy tab Installed it but can't add a meter and so can't do anything else. It says 'use menu to install meter' , but there isn't a visible menu. Pity seems like a good app |
|
[2012-06-01] A Google User: Good work |
|
[2012-05-07] A Google User: Great App |
|
[2012-05-06] A Google User: Great job! Thank you for adding the two-way meter option in your latest upgrade.It now fits my solar setup perfectly.Great work and thanks for your feedback to my request. |

[2012-04-02] A Google User: Best on market. Really well made app considering it's free and no ads. Interesting doing experiments and finding out e.g. how bloody much my electric shower costs each time! If I can request a feature it would be to improve the already excellent stats bar graph to include hour bars so I can see better the results of my experiments during the day. Highly recommended and straight forward permissions. |
