I've charged my batteries up on ehu after installing a second battery.

The Fogstar app on voltage page shows, 13.5v, 4 cells which show 3.385v each, only the top two show temperature , 15.7c and 14.3c, and 3 cells are orange and 1 blue.
now my eyesight is not good enough to read these small coloured bits, so could someone explain please.

I have said i'm fitting a shunt but not got it yet.
 
only the top two show temperature , 15.7c and 14.3c,
Temperature is not per cell. There is only 2 temp probes per pack, placed in 2 different locations, one may be higher near a terminal or midd cells. The bms will work with the highest reading for high voltage protection, and lowest reading for low voltage protection.
and 3 cells are orange and 1 blue.
When all colours match, all cells have same voltage. Different colour points to different voltage, even 0.001V and is dynamic as you charge-discharge, voltage will change.
Nothing to worry about, unless the diference is upwards on 0.05V , 50mV.
 
In the new app temperature reading seem haywire mine is showing 14°C but in advanced its showing 112 to 312°C
