Can't lie: this is a really well-made app. The integration with Open Charge Map is amazing. The app is crazy smooth, and everything opens up indtsntly. I like how it gives you a choice between Google Maps & OpenStreetMap. I also appreciate the option to add a new charger (via OCM), as well as the ability to log in to your Tesla account. You can even change the small stuff, like currency! Overall, I love this app, and I hope the design migrates to Material You soon, it will look too sexy!!

On Android mobile, the app works. Trying to configure the car under settings results in app crashing. I'm sure this will be fixed shortly. Looks like the best EV charging app I've come across. Once done and with more experience, rating may be adjusted. Update 22/5: Thanks for the update. Prompt developer feedback is a good sign!!

Hi - yes, unfortunately the "Vehicle Data" section of the app is currently broken on many Polestar and Volvo vehicles. This is due to a bug on Google's side, and I'm still waiting for them to release the stable version of the corresponding bugfix. But all the other sections (including configuring the car under "price comparison") should work.

Decided to try this. On looking at the privacy policy, I was offered an English translation, along with the statement that only the German version is legally binding... FFS, what kind of trickery is that? The policy I might agree to isn't binding on you? You can do what you want with it? I knew I wouldn't be keeping the app only an idiot who didn't value their data or policy would, but I accepted to give it a try. Conclusion? Chargers in my area are not listed, so very little value. Uninstalled.

The statement in the English privacy policy is now removed. It had been added as some translations are contributed by users and thus can't be thoroughly verified.
The data about charging stations is community-maintained, you can help add chargers in your area at openchargemap.org and goingelectric.de (depending on which data source you selected).
