Ratings and reviews

Used the app to charge with a non-tesla EV. The app clearly knew I was charging a non-NACS car, but the instructions for disconnecting the plug with the magic dock connector were wrong. It did not mention I had to hold the connector button, it just told me to push up and pull down. It's also just laggy and never gets my location accurately. I don't know what's going on with this app.

The app doesn't maintain a proper connection to the car. When I attempt to open the doors it doesn't recognize my phone. I have to turn off Bluetooth and turn it back on for it to detect my phone. I have looked at location settings, I see that the option for the permission "Allow Always" doesn't exist. It still doesn't work and I complained about this here for months. OnePlus 12 on Android 15. I have reinstalled the app etc. Still not working.

Still using Samsung Note 10+ and some of these comments with newer phones, I don't get as many issues. Yeah, it sometimes takes a while for clips to load, and cameras don't activate or pixelated at times. It works most of the time. Sometimes, I have to awaken my device in order to unlock the door when I pull on the handle. Other than that, a great app works like the BMW App, with more features and services. So much information at your fingertips.
