About Load Shedding SA

Be prepared. Know when load shedding is going to happen in your area. No more downloading the schedule and then trying to make sense of it. Set your regions and the rest is done for you.

When the Load Shedding Stage (1/2/3 or Not Load Shedding) changes you'll get a notification, and the app tell you what your black out slots are so you can plan your day.

Now supporting all ESKOM regions as well as Ethekwini (Durban), City of Tshwane (Pretoria) and Gauteng City Power schedules. More towns and cities to follow. (Cape Town returning once schedules have been updated)

Someone please make a decent loads shedding app -Happy to pay!

D70%
by D####:

Out of all the load shedding apps here, this app has never let me down once. Always advance notice and immediately when stage increases or ends. Well done

I70%
by I####:

but Is no longer up to date since City Power moved areas around about two weeks ago. So completely useless.

D70%
by D####:

Great app. U need a bells

D70%
by D####:

Lots of the time when you open the app it says the page won't load. When it does load it never shows you what areas you want to follow

S70%
by S####:

Would be better if you could actually access the entire month's schedule for your area. Other than that it has bee pretty spot on.

A70%
by A####:

Its limited to a certain few areas. But works well and does what it promises. Thanks for the app. Ignore the ID10T's. I cannot change settings on an S5 running lollipop. The buttons appear, but touch doesn't open the menu.

U70%
by U####:

Please update ......and add Cape Town municipality, otherwise its personaly useless, original app had more. Cities/towns

E70%
by E####:

All I see is an ADVERT and the current stage. Side menu doesn't open, nor can I check any schedules.

K70%
by K####:

This app is the real deal. Very accurate about the situation on the ground. I highly recommend it!!

W70%
by W####:

I've tried all the others and this one still works best despite neither Eskom or the municipalities sticking to their schedules... Idiots.

M70%
by M####:

My area is on and sometimes I get reminders (mostly of when we are NOT loadshedding) Today for example the power went off and my reminder came 20 minutes later. I check this app every hour by clicking on it, but accuracy is so-so

S70%
by S####:

The program seems to work very well but I just don't know which area I fall under as I don't recognize all the name in the msunduzi area. Can someone help me select the correct one?

K70%
by K####:

Please update Tshwane ''s new schedules!!

K70%

It only has 4 municipality cities

Useless app. Loadshedding times are wrong

K70%
by K####:

Tshwane schedules are incorrect.

K70%

It is limited in the number of cities but it is extremely accurate for the ones it does cover

A70%
by A####:

Gives wrong times 80% of the time

K70%
by K####:

Where is Emfuleni Municipality?

P70%
by P####:

Just like Eskom and the municipalities....

G70%
by G####:

Never thought at my age I would learn something new that is so basic. Turns out SA only has 4 cities. Oh well, nice to have an app that is as useless as Eskom.

K70%
by K####:

Can see how it would be useful if the schedules were correct! Please update to new ones. City of Cape Town. Thanks.

K70%
by K####:

Is spot on when load shedding begins. Would be great if the new City of Cape Town schedule can be loaded on.

J70%
by J####:

There are more regions. Only have 4 to choose from. No Mogale city. Would be great if you catered for everyone.

K70%
by K####:

The latest schedules are not loaded so info is incorrect.

K70%
by K####:

Really a nice app. Does what I want it to do, but it's still based on the old loadshedding schedule, so the info it gives about when to expect outages is rather useless (until it gets update to the new schedule)

K70%
by K####:

..but now only lists the times for the old (pre Feb 2015) schedules per area for Cape Town

Y70%
by Y####:

The area North West South Africa isn't on the region list to select. What a waste of time to install.

K70%
by K####:

Schedules seem to be updated and time bug fixed. Don't get left in the dark!

V70%
by V####:
