Recently had a smart meter installed and want to see how much energy you’ve been using? As well as your In-Home Display you can also view this important info on the OVO app (download for Android or iOS).

Here’s a little guide to getting the most out of your smart meter usage information.

Step 1

From the homepage, click on the ‘Usage’ section at the bottom of the page

You should see tabs at the top of the usage page, where you can choose to view usage graphs in Year, Month, Week or Day view.

Year view

Here you’ll be greeted with a graph displaying how much has been used this year, separated in to months,

Month view

Similar to the yearly usage, this option shows you a graph with every day of the month, and how much you’ve used on each

You can also choose to view your monthly usage as either kWh or £s by using the slider as highlighted in the below picture.

Day view

You can also view daily usage, which will show how much you’ve used each half-hour if you’ve got half-hourly meter readings scheduled.

You also have the option to use the ‘Compare’ slider on the right of the screen to compare usage to previous days, weeks and months etc:

For the purposes of this tutorial, I’ve only shown the totals for an account with both gas and electricity. It all functions exactly the same, so if you want to view the breakdown per fuel, just select from the top which one you’d like to access.
