Ratings and reviews

THIEVES! Latest update doesn't work on my partner's iPhone. My partner had money loaded on their account and you've now STOLEN our money! I have to go with her, or start the machine remotely for the only person who can drive our car! Revert to the last version that worked fine on older iphones. And fire your clearly overpaid, moronic lead dev!! If this doesn't work on ALL phones, don't update it. It worked fine! Leave it alone!

With recent update, Charging Speed Filter is not working at all. When I select DC Ultra Fast Chargers my map is filled with 50kW chargers! They are not Ultra chargers which is indicated by 3 bolts on the app design. What I need is 150-180 kw chargers listed. Otherwise great app.

App is very clean and laid out well enough. Fairly easy to use but the need to "reload your wallet" with fixed money is annoying. Just bill the card on file for the energy used. You're now charging enough to cover the transaction fees without question. Also, you can order an RFID card but I can't use my phone as the RFID? What the heck hydro? That seems obvious and means I wouldn't need to carry another card. I do at least appreciate that the stations are in good repair.
