Ivie ivie Bud | in-Home Display Your Smart Meter

Product Information

For me, the biggest annoyance is the lack of an internal battery, especially since the ivie Bud is based on the Chameleon IHD7 and all previous models like the IHD1, IHD2, IHD3 and IHD6 have always featured one. I use some pretty fancy Ubiquiti UniFi kit for my home network and while most Wi-Fi enabled gadgets see all of my four access points as broadcasting a single network, the ivie Bud detected each one individually, meaning I had a total of 16 of my own Wi-Fi Networks listed when I actually only have four. We hope this clarification provides insight into the situation, ensuring a more accurate representation of the service we have provided. A lack of constant Wi-Fi access will be an instant showstopper and you’ll never get the device running, while a lack of a smartphone and/or paperless billing will make the setup process a lot more difficult. Any attempt to use the optical port in the field might will likely trigger a tamper alarm with the supplier and these do get investigated.

The only workaround is to use an IHD that comes from your energy supplier as these can be paired without internet access. We would like to address your concerns and provide you with a detailed explanation of the situation.I also found the locate address tool unreliable and there was no locate by MPAN this time - I actually had to use the account creation via the Samsung SmartThings integration to get the account created at all, since only that side has the locate by MPAN option. This information will allow us to review all previous correspondence and investigate the issue thoroughly. Originally planned for a theatrical release by Sony (with the much-worse title Connected), the studio sold this off to Netflix during the pandemic…and probably regretted that decision. Using your smart meter data, the ivie Bud display, the ivie app and ivie smart EV charging together make home energy management smarter, simpler, greener and more personal.

We provided a detailed response to answer your initial question and any potential follow-up queries about the activation process. As a community team, our main role here is keeping things ticking over, everyone safe and getting involved in some great conversations!

A key pro for me personally is the app has the ability to drill down on the data even to the point of showing you what appliances are using what energy and how much they are costing you to run.

We are able to verify remotely if a smart meter is functioning correctly and if so, we work to reconnect an in-home display to avoid the need to replace a device which is capable of functioning correctly. Crazy to think that this service is recommended by E-on yet I’ve not had a complete monthly report on energy usage since November. I’m seriously trying to reduce my energy consumption but this app is frustrating rather than helping.I've absolutely loved using my ivie Bud and the app to help me save money on our bills this year, especially now that the weather is getting cooler. The other “DCC/SMETS” port seems more complicated than a simple read-only port, so I’m not sure we’re talking the same kind of port.

Therefore, any discrepancies in the information would be due to an incorrect tariff being set on your meters. Still annoying I have to do that which means nobody else in the house can see the current balance unless they look at my phone. Monitors aren’t updated with their latest tariff information; they frequently lose connection with the smart meter, or they just don't work at all. But these in-home display (IHD) devices were responsible for 40% of the problems with smart meters reported to us by Which? I do have the bud IHD as well and they work brilliantly together but even the app on its own is far superior to others I’ve used.We genuinely appreciate your patience and feedback, and we're committed to resolving this matter to your satisfaction. We know many of you will have specific queries about your accounts and we want to keep your personal details safe so please don't post them here.
