Which option is right for me?

The app and the Bridge solve two different problems.

📱

Just the Premium App

The app fetches live data from your solar system over your home Wi-Fi whenever you open it. A quick check every few days is enough to see your recent trends and know things are running as expected.

Best for: people who want a simple health check — is my system still producing normally? Occasional check-ins are plenty.

🌐

App + Sunflower Bridge

The Bridge logs a snapshot every 30 minutes, around the clock — building the dense history that makes real analysis possible. Production trends, seasonal comparisons, panel-level patterns over months: that's what continuous data unlocks.

Best for: people who want to understand their power usage and dig into how their system is actually performing — not just whether it's running.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need the Bridge to use the app?

No. The app works great on its own — it connects directly to your solar system over your home Wi-Fi and shows live data, panel detail, insights, and alerts. The Bridge is an optional add-on that adds remote access and always-on monitoring.

Can I cancel my app subscription at any time?

Yes. Subscriptions are managed entirely through the App Store (iPhone) or Google Play (Android). Cancel anytime in your device's subscription settings — no hoops, no retention flows, no emails required.

How difficult is the Bridge hardware setup?

Very simple. Plug the Bridge into any wall outlet (USB powered), open the Sunflower app, and follow the one-screen setup flow. Most people are up and running in under a minute — no tools, no wiring, no installer needed.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. The app includes a 3-day free trial of Premium, managed through the App Store (iPhone) or Google Play (Android) — no payment until the trial ends. After the trial, a subscription is needed to keep full access to history, insights, and alerts.

Which solar systems does Sunflower support?

Sunflower supports SunPower / SunStrong systems with a PVS5 or PVS6 monitoring device. Not sure if your system is compatible? Download the free app and check — setup takes about a minute.

Sunflower can't discover my PVS — what should I do?
  1. Check if your PVS is active. PVS units go into a low-power sleep mode during periods of little or no sunlight. Try again during daylight hours when your system is actively generating power.
  2. Confirm your PVS is online. Make sure it's connected to your home network — either via Wi-Fi or Ethernet. A quick check: if you can see live data in the SunStrong app or portal, your PVS is online.
  3. Avoid isolated network segments. Your phone and PVS must be on the same network. Guest Wi-Fi networks are typically isolated from other devices, which prevents discovery. Use your main home Wi-Fi instead.
  4. Enter the IP address manually. Find your PVS's local IP in your router app or admin console (look for a device named "PVS5" or "PVS6"), or use a network scanner like Fing. Then enter it directly in Sunflower instead of using auto-discovery.

We also recommend setting a DHCP reservation (sometimes called a "static IP") so the address doesn't change. Here's how to find the IP and set a reservation in the most common router apps:

Router brand App Find PVS IP Set static IP (DHCP reservation)
Amazon eero eero In the device list, find your PVS (look for a device named "PVS5", "PVS6", or similar) and tap it to see its IP Settings → Advanced networking → Reservations & port forwarding
Google Nest Google Home Wi-Fi → Devices → find your PVS ("PVS5", "PVS6", or similar) and tap it to see its IP Network settings → Advanced Networking → DHCP IP reservations (or tap "Pin" next to the IP)
TP-Link Archer / Deco TP-Link Tether (Archer) or TP-Link Deco Client list → find your PVS ("PVS5", "PVS6", or similar) and tap it to see its IP Deco: Advanced → Address Reservation. Tether/Archer: IP visible in app, but DHCP reservation requires the web admin console.
ASUS ASUS Router Devices tab → find your PVS ("PVS5", "PVS6", or similar) and tap it to see its IP Select device → Advanced Settings → IP Reservation / Bind
