Tariff Support
Octopus Energy offers a variety of tariffs, and most of them are fully supported by Octopus Watch. Tariffs including the word Intelligent are not fully supported due to Octopus Energy not making all the required information available.

Economy 7 tariffs do not communicate through the Octopus Energy API when peak and off-peak prices start. To accommodate for this the app follows the guidelines set out by Octopus Energy on Economy 7 times for smart meters. During BST this means the app will report your off-peak times as 01:30–08:30 instead of the usual 00:30–07:30.
Tariffs marked with Partial Support1 work in the app, yet may not show non-standard off-peak hours. The Octopus Energy API does not adequately share this information. You will not see upcoming off-peak hours that deviate from the normal times. The history will not correctly account for off-peak hours that occurred outside of the normal times.
