  • Short sighted

    This app sounds good in principle its weakness is the ability to see further then a mile from you intended path to see faster or more reliable charging stations. Case in point Portland to Boise has on i84 it skips a fast charger in Hermiston, Oregon at a Walmart that is only slightly out of route, for a level two charger that will take 7 hours and 45 minutes to complete a charge to 90%

  • Won’t load

    I downloaded the app, paid for a year subscription and when it came time to plan my trip it wouldn’t load. The app froze. Deleted and reinstalled it twice. I am done. Moving on to another app.

  • Why try

    I avoid any app that makes you sign up and give them a credit card to find out how it works. From the description I get nothing. If I could try it free for a day then signup I might try it.

  • Frustrating App

    By pyelor
    So, you immediately get prompted for a subscription. That’s annoying right off the bat. Then, you can get access to the free features after subscribing and canceling. All of this so the developer can hang onto your money, and draw interest, for the months it will take for a refund? If features are free, just provide them. I understand that premium features require a subscription, and I’m fine with that. Just don’t charge me to get access to the free stuff when I can’t even tell if the app is any good in the first place. Totally stupid model.

  • Can’t use it without subscribing

    If there’s a free version, I should be able to use it from the start. The forced subscription garbage has to stop. I can’t believe Apple even approved this.

  • Can’t cancel SUBSCRIPTION

    By Not-reviewing
    I downloaded this app by mistake, but I didn’t notice it until I’d already paid for a subscription. There appears to be no way to cancel it. Their terms say go to the phones settings, but there’s no option there.

  • Nice app for EV drivers

    The infrastructure of charging stations in the U.S. is insane. You need dozens of apps to deal with all the manufacturers of public stations out there, made even worse for us non-Tesla owners. Plugshare is most popular, but I’ve had many false hits saying a charger was down when it wasn’t or vice versa, and the UI leaves much to be desired. This app brings me much needed sanity by aggregating the different public charger networks together in one very well done user interface. It’s a subscription app, but they seem dedicated to keeping it up to date with the latest EVs and charger networks, and the data on charger availability so far has been good. Worth the subscription price.

  • Didn’t work with Electrify America

    By anaimation
    The App didn’t work for me while trying to use it with the Electrify America chargers. The basic function of “charging” was not easily available. I desperation to make the connection with the car work, I accepted the trial and was charged for a full year ($60). Their contact page only has a contact form, no customer service number, no chat. I hope their new version has an upgrade and that they improve their customer service.

  • Lures you into yearly subscription- not much use

    By AAA06483
    Just bought an EV and got a bunch of apps to try out for finding chargers. This is the only one that lures you into a yearly subscription for 59 bucks. What for? No idea. Plenty of apps out there to give you info on public chargers for free. Just glad I managed to cancel right at the last day of my one week trial.

  • No Way to Start Charge

    I’ve had 3 electric cars in the last 12 years, so I’ve had to download many apps for many charging stations. Some are dead simple to use, some are broken, some are complicated and you have to actually call someone on the phone to setup an account. This one seemed to only show your location and how to map to other charging station. The charging station had a QR code that only sent the numbers for the stationID to my phone. The app had no place for entering an ID and no means of scanning that QR code. So, I was unable to charge my car. And just to top off an annoying experience, I was forced to get an annual subscription with a free trial in order to open the app. I know people don’t read these before being forced to download them while frantically trying to charge their car so they can move on with their day, so this feels pointless, but I definitely will not use a station that requires this app again. I’m glad we have more options now.
