VictronConnect bugs reports (Android)

In Victron Connect on Android (latest version available on Google Play, but bugs are present for a while), I'm reporting 3 a little bit anoying bugs affecting usability:

  1. Once the third tab of an MPPT RS is selected (to view curves), then when coming back into second tab (History), left and right swipes don't allow to see history anymore, but swipe to the first or third tab. Same when going back to third tab, no swipes inside the graph possible anymore.

  2. On MPPT 100/20, when going from first tab to second tab, then to third tab, selecting parameters to draw, coming back to second tab, sometimes only last 2 days are displayed. To get 30 days history display back, the Victron Connect App needs to be closed and removed from last apps, disconnecting from unit and reconnecting is not enough.

  3. (Btw this one might be a bug or a missing feature of MPPT RS 450/100): When opening the Victron Connect app, the data collection and drawing in the third tab only starts at the point when connecting on the unit. This is not the case on the much smaller MPPT 100/20, where the history of voltages and currents seems memorized in the MPPT 100/20 and the previous curves of the day are visible, even when there was no connection with Victron Connect. This feature seems surprisingly missing from the bigger and more powerful MPPT RS 450/100.

Hi @beat

Thank for reporting these issues. We will look into them.

Regarding the third item: The MPPT RS does not support the trends feature, so this is indeed expected behavior.

Kind regards,
