Sibber - more Tibber alarms

Sibber shows your current electricity price plus the rest of today and, once they're published, tomorrow's prices. A colour-coded gauge tells you at a glance whether power is cheap, average, or expensive right now.

Yes. In Settings you can switch the display between hourly and 15-minute intervals, depending on how your prices are billed and how much detail you want to see.

Tibber publishes the next day's prices in the early afternoon (typically around 13:00). Until then Sibber shows the prices that are already known; the rest fill in automatically once Tibber releases them.

Sibber needs an internet connection to fetch fresh prices from Tibber. Prices it has already downloaded stay visible offline, but it can't pull in new ones until you're back online.

Create an activity for something like the washing machine or dishwasher, tell Sibber roughly how long it runs and by when it should be done, and Sibber finds the cheapest block of hours in that window and reminds you when to start.

Yes. For EV charging you can enter your battery level and capacity, and Sibber works out how long the charge will take and which hours are cheapest — so the car is ready when you need it without paying peak prices.

Yes. When Sibber finds the best window for an activity, it shows how much cheaper that is than starting right now, as a percentage, and how it compares with the most expensive window of the day. For EV charging it also uses your battery size and charge levels to estimate the cost of the charge and the amount you save.

Yes. You can ask Sibber to nudge you a few minutes before the cheapest window begins, so you can press start on the appliance at the right moment.

No. Smart scheduling works with any appliance just by telling Sibber how long it runs. If you happen to have a supported V2C charger you can also let Sibber start and stop charging for you, and lock or unlock the charger from a Control Center switch — but that's optional.

Yes. Sibber adds a control to Control Center that sets or removes a price alarm for the cheapest upcoming slot. Flip it on and Sibber schedules a notification for that slot; flip it off to remove it again. The same control works from the Lock Screen buttons and the Action Button.

Open Control Center, tap the plus in the top-left corner to edit, choose Add a Control, and look for Sibber. You'll find two controls: Cheapest slot alarm, and Charger lock for V2C owners. Tap either to add it to your Control Center layout.

The bell under the price in the Home Screen widget stands for the cheapest slot that still has to start. It's grey while no alarm is set and turns green as soon as there is one — set from Control Center or inside Sibber. The medium and large widgets also show the time of that slot next to the bell. Tapping the widget opens Sibber.

Yes, if you've connected a V2C charger in Sibber. The Charger lock control locks or unlocks the charger in one tap, just like the button inside the app. If the control says the charger isn't configured, connect it in Sibber first.

Yes. An alarm set from Control Center appears under Notifications the next time you open Sibber, and alarms you create in Sibber show up in the widget bell. They're the same alarms, kept in sync both ways.

The control relies on the prices Sibber has already downloaded. Open Sibber once so it fetches the latest prices from Tibber, and the control will work again. You'll also see this when there's no upcoming slot left for today and tomorrow's prices aren't in yet.

Pro is the whole of Sibber: price alerts, smart scheduling with savings estimates, Control Center controls, Siri, notifying housemates, and the detailed price views. Without a subscription you can connect your Tibber account, after which the subscription screen appears and shows exactly what's included.

Your Pro subscription is handled by Apple, not by Sibber. To change or cancel it, open the iPhone Settings app, tap your name at the top, then Subscriptions, and choose Sibber. Any active period stays available until it ends.

Your Tibber token is stored on your device and used to fetch your prices from Tibber. There's no separate Sibber account, and your activities and settings stay in your own iCloud. If you connect a V2C charger, its API key is kept on your device as well so the Control Center control can reach the charger. Sibber talks to Tibber to get your prices — that's the only place your home's data comes from.
