Ratings and reviews

The app does the job. The share button spits out only apple map links which is a minor annoyance. The chargers still decline to work if your car has plug-and-charge enabled. That is a major annoyance. Apparently, it's supported, but only with a manufacturer charging plan (ex. Charge myHyuindai). If don't have one but plug-and-charge is enabled on the car, Ionnity chargers panic and stop the session. Minus points for that one.

The QR code scanning feature is now back, which is great. However, when a code is scanned, it's not immediately clearly visible which station is selected (or even at which location). Not critical, but would be nice to have such assurance that I'm doing exactly what I want to do. Another minor issue remaining since the big update is it's impossible to know how long each charging session took.

As much as I like Ionity and the fast charging, I still can't activate the chargers with this app. it worked for a few months and then it quit on November 10, 2022. I've been reporting the issue but as of February 2023, there is still no fix. I'm paying the monthly service, but in order to charge, I have to call my wife who activates the chargers remotely from her iPhone. It's outrageous.
