Ratings and reviews

Ok, so in a dark car park, read the name of the charger, read which port you're socketed into, and remember them while you find the way out - there's no phone signal. Then enter them into the app, which gives no feedback on whether it's working. Then , come back hours later to find you've done no charging. This app should not exist! I don't want your nonsense account, just swipe my damn card! I will avoid podpoint whenever possible.

Historical iterations of the app used to show charging progress on our home solo 2, but now it seems like I can't check the amount of energy added until I unplug. The former was useful because the car doesn't have an internet connection and therefore I can't check the state of charge that way. Any chance of re-establishing the earlier capability? Oh, and integration with octopus intelligent go asap please.
