Thank you for raising the issue regarding the ESB Ecars mobile app, Ecar Connect. In relation to the distance to chargers being expressed in miles instead of km, to fix this, you can either change the language setting on your device from ‘English (UK)’ to ‘English (Ireland)’, or change the ‘distance unit’ to ‘kilometres’ in your navigation app (Google Maps for example).

The app is very handy at ESB chargers, as it allows you to control the full charging experience with a few click and 2 swipes. You don't need a card or anything. Sometimes the app (or charger, not sure) can get confused and stuck when the swipe on the app and plugging of the cable are not made in the right order. What it needs now is a notification for overstay: When the time limit is close, the app should send a reminder because it is easy to forget about the 45 minutes.

It does exactly what you need it to do. Tells you where chargers are, if they're being used, if they're in use then when the person started using it, you can connect and pay through the app and can even connect with Google maps to bring you to the nearest charger and if you've got any problems theres a char function and a number to call. The only thing I'd change are a few tweaks in the UI but otherwise it does exactly what it's meant to and does it reliably.
