I’ve yet to bother.

Electric meter is smart but only works reliably because Octopus supplies an additional widget that connects via wifi. It enhances app performance but also makes smart reporting back to Octopus more resilient. The supplied IHD is useless and spends as much time ‘awaiting information’ as actually telling me anything.
Get a Home Mini free from Octopus then unplug the IHD.
