What to Expect From Numbers and Displays

FAQ
Why should I use mySunrun on my computer instead of just the phone app?
A full computer display makes production charts and account details easier to read during longer sessions, and it runs the app open alongside your email or browser without draining your phone battery. Many users prefer to check production data while already working at their desk.
What if I see a blank screen or error message in mySunrun?
Connection issues and account synchronization problems can cause blank screens or 'try again later' errors. Sign out, close the app completely, and sign back in. If problems persist, use the chat support feature within the app or contact Sunrun directly: agents can often resolve display issues quickly.
Can I see yesterday's production data right away?
mySunrun typically shows the previous day's production after 9 a.m., though it may appear later depending on when your equipment transmits data. Real-time current production is always available once you're signed in.
How does the referral program work in the app?
Navigate to the referral section and share your unique link with friends and family. When they sign up for Sunrun using your referral, you earn rewards. The app tracks your active referrals and any rewards you've earned.
Why might my app numbers differ from my local system display?
mySunrun pulls data from Sunrun's servers, while your on-site equipment display reads directly from the inverter. Small timing gaps between uploads and account syncs can cause discrepancies, and these may grow larger over time if equipment logging drifts. Support can investigate persistent mismatches.
Is mySunrun for computer available for Mac as well as Windows?
The app is primarily available for Windows PC through emulation or desktop versions. Check the Sunrun support page or app store for current Mac compatibility and installation options for your system.
