The tab bar
Tired of sore thumbs from stretching your hand to the corner menu button? Then you’ll like this update. We got rid of the “hamburger menu” and replaced with an always-open tab bar at the bottom of the screen. You can now enjoy effortless navigation around the Sense app, making it easier to check out the new features we’re continually rolling out.
From Usage to Trends
We’ve also renamed the Usage screen to Trends. We feel it better reflects the data that you’re looking at. Within Trends, we’ve renamed the Trends card to Usage.
Getting started process
Most of you won’t ever see this since you’ve already installed and set up your Sense monitor, but we’ve also updated the getting started process for new users, making some changes that should help clarify what exactly is happening as Sense learns about your home for the first time.
Other changes
- On the Now screen, tapping either your live usage or the plug icon will direct you to the current day in Usage, just as you can already do with with solar production and the solar icon.
- On the Device Details screen, when you’re linked from the Power Meter card in Device Details to the full Power Meter, time will now automatically scale to the last 24 hours. This was another feature request that will hopefully make it a little easier to identify usage patterns with new devices without having to pinch and zoom out first.
- You can now find a link to the Community Forum under Settings > Help.
Bug fixes
- Fixed an issue with the Usage screen crashing
