With electricity prices soaring, many are looking for ways to change their habits and save money. Several mobile apps can help you create frugal and sustainable habits – these tools on your phone will not only make it easier to track energy consumption, but also ensure greater efficiency.
According to “Tele2” experts, one of the best ways to reduce consumption and costs is to monitor the amount of energy consumed, which is much easier to do with smart apps on your phone.
For economical lighting – “Bulb Saving”
The choice of bulbs is extremely large, so choosing the best and cheapest can be extremely difficult. This is where the smart “Light Bulb Saving” app will help you, which allows you to reduce the amount of energy used for lighting and at the same time provide the light that meets your needs. The app helps you calculate how much money you can save by replacing your current lamps with energy-saving alternatives. The app also provides tips to help you create efficient and effective lighting solutions for every room in your home.
For savings tips – JouleBug

In the app you can communicate with other users, encourage friends or family to participate in challenges and compete with each other. The app will allow you not only to save, but also to have fun and promote sustainability.
For the price calculation – “Energy cost calculator”
The free electricity monitoring app calculates daily, weekly, monthly and yearly energy consumption and costs. The app shows you exactly how much it costs to leave the TV on standby all night or how much energy you waste by not turning off the light in the bathroom. Here you will have to enter data on home electronics, energy consumption, period of use and the price of energy. The calculated results can be shared on social networks and in other ways.
For monitoring indicators – “Meter readings”
In this application it is possible to monitor the readings of even more meters – water, electricity or other – and create a detailed data report. In the application, all information will be displayed in easy to understand graphs, indicating the exact costs by week, month or year. The application’s tools allow you to collect old data as well, so you can compare the latest information and changes in prices or energy consumption. You will always know how much water, gas or electricity you use and what your daily average is. Using meter readings, you can also compare your consumption and costs with other consumers who use the services of different energy suppliers.
Lietotne “Energy consumption analyzer”
This app is also very useful for monitoring energy consumption. It allows Android users to mark readings in one color and add their own comments. The application will not only calculate the average level of energy consumption by hour, day, week or month, but it will also create a graph showing the level of consumption over a certain period of time.
