Original Bluetooth Guide
APP Introduction
This application is independently developed and designed by Shenzhen Wattcycle Power Co., Ltd. lt specializes in monitoring lithium batteries, providing real-time status readings such as the voltage of each battery series charging and discharging current, alarm prompts, protection status, etc. This allows users to clearly understand the health status of lithium batteries and ensure their safe use.
APP Running Environment
This application can be installed on Android 4.3 or above, supports Bluetooth 4.0 devices, and requires GPS usage permissions for Bluetooth functionality.
APP Download and Install
Users can scan the code to download and install the APP in the following ways:
Users can download and install the APP in the following ways:
iOS: search "BMS Meta" on Apple appstore.
Android: search "BMS Meta' on Google play.
For Android Users：You can click this link to download the Previous version (Green version) Bluetooth APP.
WattCycle is developing and updating a new version of the Bluetooth APP. Recently, many users have reported problems with the new version of the APP "BMS Meta”. Android users please click the link to download the Previous version (V1.1.5) of the APP. Thank you for your support!
APP Usage Examples
Android / iOS
Search for the download page and click the [Install] button to install, as shown in Figure 1.
- After installation is completed, open the device name interface, select the name of the battery pack that needs to be connected, and click on it, as shown in Figure 2

- Note: When connecting Bluetooth, please confirm that the Bluetooth and GPS switches on your phone are turned on first, otherwise you will not be able to connect.
Following a successful Bluetooth connection, you can click the [Status Display] button at the bottom left of the main interface to switch between diverse display interfaces and learn about the detailed data of the battery pack. The following data can be viewed, as depicted in Figure 4.
- Display the battery level and percentage, enabling users to better grasp the real-time battery level.
- Present the charging and discharging switches.
- Exhibit the total voltage of the battery.
- Reveal the magnitude of the charging and discharging current.
- Display the power size.
- Present the number of battery pack cycles.
- Display battery status, ambient temperature, MOS temperature, first group cell temperature, and second group cell temperature.
- Display the voltage details in multiple series of battery cells, encompassing voltage difference, average voltage, minimum voltage, maximum voltage, and voltage difference for each series of battery cells.
- Present alarm information and set parameters
- Set parameters.
* Unauthorized alteration of the parameters of the BMS board may cause abnormal operation of the battery and affect the product warranty, lf necessary, please contact the customer service to obtain the password.

BMS app for 2x 314ah displays the devices bit gives device connection time out. So no connection. How to solve?
Just received 2x 314amp however wattcycle app is very basic. Do I need to install the BMS version?
Need clarification – I read that Wattcycle App doesn’t provide cell-level data on an iPhone for 280 AH mini. Is that true or has the app been updated?
Please update manual for new app. What does standby mean? Are there notifications as the other user asked? Do I need to update the settings for my battery?
The instructions provided on the site do not match the app and it would be nice to have instructions that would actually show you what each selection means.
So basically, there is no effective app available as promoted.
All of the questions are relevant to all users. Can answers be put in an FAQ please to be respectful to users.
I like the app, but the instruction manual in the app doesn’t match the software. The manual refers to “BMS Meta” – it looks like it has features not present in Wattcycle.
I like the idea of an app, but it’s hard to get the most out of it when I don’t know how it’s supposed to work.
For a quality product like this, a little improvement in the app is necessary.
1. I can’t understand why it’s not possible to indicate the time remaining until the discharge limit specified by the user, not the BMS’s.
2. And if I had to ask, an notification when the user-set limit is reached. It would be almost perfect.
Thanks a lot
What does the charge and discharge button do on the app for the 314 amp hour smart 12 volt battery?
When spending five or $600 on batteries it would be nice to have better documentation and explain what each of the buttons do and why doesn’t all of the data work on the app like amount of cycles.
Where can I find the error code explainations?
Like others, I bought a newer 100ah Smart Mini. Received it today, and finding out that these newer ones won’t work with the older Bluetooth BMS Meta app. Downloaded the newer version and it does work on my iPhone 5S, but unfortunately, the view of the monitoring information on the screen is all jumbled together. This was NOT the case with the older BMS Meta version. I was able to download the new app onto my iMac, and it works fine on that and the viewing is OK. But like others, I am not a fan of this newer version. I’ll just put this one into my 4-pack of parallel batteries (1 of which is a Smart version) for an emergency inverter and use one of my older ones for traveling in my car to plug my electric 12-volt cooler into it.
What is the password or where can I get the password
I like the feature of the older “BMS Meta” where it displays the voltage of each individual cell. Is there a way to get the new “Wattcycle” bluetooth app to display each individual cell’s voltage??? Right now, it can only display the total system voltage.
Bought 2 12 volt 100 amp batteries. Can’t connect with Bluetooth. Both apps not working. Please advise. Thanks.
Need password for my Mini 100 BT to access basic info in the BMS meta app that is missing from the Wattcycle app. The password “888888” from this article doesn’t work.
Hello,
I tried both “META” programs, the old one with the link (V1.1.5) and the one available on the Android Play Store. I had a password issue with both. The code “888888” didn’t work, making them unusable. So, I installed the Wattcycle V25.3.32 app instead.
It’s true that it works without a password, but I find it a bit lacking. You can’t choose the temperature unit in the settings, as it’s forced to Fahrenheit, and on the main display, both (F and C) are always shown, making it less clear to read.
More concerning is the lack of diagnostics for each cell (temperature and, most importantly, voltage), which is essential for checking the balancing. The battery cycle count is also missing, which is important for assessing wear. Yet, all these parameters are available in competitor apps.
On the plus side, the settings do include useful options like warranty registration and the support URL.
I really hope that Wattcycle will improve this app.
