Unbelievably bad app. I find it hard to believe this was written by professionals—and I understand now why Xcel keeps starting wildfires and burning down peoples’ houses. They are clearly incompetent.

Poor app Privacy issue
Main concern I have for using the app is that you have to share and Xcel collects and retains your wifi and password in order to connect to your smart meter. You have to accept this privacy policy and terms of use before I can even login and see if app is even worth it. Really??? Who gives out their secure wifi and password to anyone randomly that you don’t trust. Xcel needs to figure better way or ensure primary as I never trust a company to secure my data. It’s fool’s errand. In theory, it’s an amazing concept as I would love to really get real time data. Xcel has other app where you can get some daily and by varying timelines. It’s helpful but not the best. I was really hoping to be able to use this app without encroaching my privacy.
