Ratings and reviews

This app has become the app I use most for charging in Germany. It very reliably activates very reliable stations. That said, it is a bit buggy. it often hangs or reports lack of network, but luckily that usually happens after the signal has been sent to the station to start. Since it doesn't affect the enable function I'll go ahead and rate five stars for now, assuming it'll be corrected. In the areas I've used it, some stations charge 0.39 eu/kwh, some are free.

They don't write in the app that the charging point is BROKEN. It showed available. But it worked enough to start and reserve 85 euro on my card. Nice experience, thanks for wasting my time on trying to make it work and then waiting on the phone for help.

From a customer point of view, what you're likely after, is electricity, kWhours, to your car. This app is dependent, at least at the only place I've used it at, on Zephyre's charge station. If the station is not up to date or does not work, it's not a problem for eCharge, and app may work just great! BUT you will not get any electricity to your car...
