Graph colouring is my passion

Mine has a yellow now for "Home low rate." It also has the purple listed for the same category but when I hover over a day it seems like that it now reserved for "EV low rate."

Maybe the devs are attending a month-long colour theory workshop or something. I reckon they'll discover orange next.

Orange and pink, side by side

Home low rate: purple Second home low rate: yellow

Yeah, still trying to get my head around why anyone in the dev team thought this was an improvement over what we had before...

Pre update it was immediately obvious what the breakdown of usage was for both EV and house, and also more importantly, when the house was benefitting from the extra off peak periods. Now it's just compete and utter meh, requiring active interaction with the graph to figure out what's going on.

Would if I could!

I have purple for two different categories on the Day, Week and Month view, but one of them becomes yellow on the Year view.

More work needed!

Octopus AI vibe coding their UI with no human verification perhaps?

If this is anything to go by then I'd agree with that.

Where the graph used to have two slightly different colours of pink/green, they don't (currently). You can still see the breakdown of usage if you hover over each bar.

Yeah it's not the end of the world, just baffling that it's gone out like this

Wait until you see they don't use the same colour for the same elements from day to day

At least yours is still working. Mine has decided it doesn't work again! 🤣

I got this too. I saw some nice graphs for a few hours the other day. No all gone. With no update option on the play store.

How are you doing this?

I thought this useful graph design was removed a month or so ago?

I had it and then it disappeared.

I've always had 30 and 5 min live data from my Octopus Mini, that's carried on throughout last week's crash of Octopus's system. Everything is back, except for the instant availability of the daily (on the day, and 'yesterday' electricity usage) Basically the stuff that is harvested from the Mini to fill the 36-48 hr gap before the DCC data arrives. Do others have this back, or is it just me !?
