Great app, super useful and connected with the Ev community.

It's the go-to app for finding chargers, at least in the USA. Community updated and speedy. I only wish it would drop pins at an exact address search location, that way you could see chargers and exactly where they are in relation to your destination. I asked Plugshare about this once but I was blown off. I don't think they understood the feature request, since it's simple and makes so much sense. It might also be nice to filter chargers by quality, for example, options to hide chargers that have ratings less than 6 or whatever, or flag chargers that have had x number of unsuccessful check-ins I'm the past week, etc. Just please don't do something awful like add Facebook integration. The world needs less bloated software.

It's the best ev app so far. The most complete map, most up to date, because it's maintained by the user. It has chargers information across eu

It's great for finding EV chargers. Has the best up to date locations. I've added in the comments nearby restaurant and bathroom reviews.

R70%
by R####:

I enjoy the fact that it is the users that make this app grow. Therefore, when you see a charging station, it has already been verified by another driver who already used it. Really cool app

Not as good as ios version

Great assistance

N70%
by N####:

This app is great for sourcing all the available plugs into one place. Or well most of them. Giving low review because Everytime you click on a plug to get more info it does a stupid zoom in. I can't just have an area view and get info. It zooms and then you have to zoom out and start again. Drop this. It's so stupid.

N70%
by N####:

Would rate it a 5 however, it's for auto dealer ships and other stations need real time updating and would be nice to see a MSG board and or an ability to shout or talk to folks around or near you.or anybody who has app in the EV VERSE!

N70%
by N####:

Would be great to filter for new charging stations within a selectable distance from my location. At the moment, it's either "Near" or the entire planet.

Have been using this app for the past 2 years and its been my go-to app for all my trips!

L70%

This app is awesome for finding all the car charge stations, also let's you tell people you are using it so they know. And it can plan a trip too.

Gas's buddy for EVs. Except better. Pictures, and exact locations of charging stations. I used this app to take long road trips in my 238mile EV

N70%
by N####:

Best app for finding a power outlet.. or rather one you may use legally. AT&T poles make good outlets too :p

N70%
by N####:

This app would be more useful if one could search by location address as one can do with the Chargepoint app

N70%
by N####:

Great community resource - but only as good as the inputs, so everyone needs to contribute!

N70%
by N####:

Works perfect for what I need - ready access to all charging stations! Helps plan out a lot of my day.

It's a amazing app as it's up to date. With our Kia Soul EV we have to update the map every year.
