Using the Enphase App
Many common questions and alerts can be reviewed directly in the Enphase Enlighten app. The app allows you to see system status, current production, and recent performance trends.
You should have received an email from Enphase at the time of installation with instructions to set up your account and log in to the Enlighten app. This email includes a unique link required to activate your system. Please use this link rather than creating a new account. Allow 1-2 days for delivery and check your spam folder if needed.
If your system includes batteries, the same Enlighten app is used for both solar and battery monitoring.
