Ratings and reviews

Absolutely terrible. The most unoptimized app I have ever used in the history of Android. Menus for selecting your state in the registration process lag, stutter, and completely freeze. A populated menu of states hard coded into the app take over a minute to load or even crash the app. The location search function (even using the exact location name) doesn't work - first by taking several minutes to load, then by not interacting or freezing when the location name does pop up. Skip it.

Unusable. Every click takes 10+ seconds to complete even just focusing in a text box. Besides that it's incredibly complicated. You need to register to add a credit card. You are then required to get a "Blink code". To do this you must put $20 into your account whether you opted for the auto-refill or not. Why not use phone tap & NFC? You can request a physical Blink card in the mail - again, why not use a phone? Cost of charging is more than double Tesla Supercharger rates. Don't bother.

So sluggish, it makes you select buttons multiple times and you end up misclicking. The QR reader on the charging station can't be read on the app and there's no station number. Took forever for it to see the nearest charger based on my location. Also no way to tell which charging plug you have. Requires you to prepay at $20 increments. Awful.
