Leave a Review Volta Charging
Great support, but lacking features
Volta responses to concerns about charging stations in Hawaii super fast. The representatives are super nice and comprehensive. The one thing that we don’t like at the chargers is that we never know when one is not working. If we get to a charger early to avoid lots of lines, we can sit in our car up to an hour before the unit turns on and not even know that the station is broken. So, we wish to know if the station is broken but there’s no way to tell. Anyway, thank you so much for the free energy!Show lessKianaf808
Bizarre, broken, do not trust: zero stars
Until today, this seem like a fairly ordinary electric vehicle charger finding app. Then it went berserk. At a charging station with six chargers available the app oscillates between telling me that there are 40 available and that one is out of service and telling me that there are 24 available. The eyes in my head can only find six. I am about to delete this app. Perhaps they will fix it.Show lessautnagrag
Overall pretty reliable free charging
The mobile status of the chargers are pretty consistent but once in a while you’ll show up thinking it’s free but someone is still plugged in there. It can be pretty frustrating but I’ve noticed this has improved a lot over time. It’s free, so I love what they’re doing but there room for improvement.Show lessJake Taylor 1984
Great service 👍🏽
Love the concept of free charging..
There should be a more control.. people leaver their car in Parkin stall for more than 2 Hours.. i know the power source cuts it self after them time allowed .. but cars aren’t moving..
🤔 A $10/hr Parking fee could solve this problem.Urbie87
Volta is 100% FREE.
As an EV driver (Tesla), I can tell you that I prefer Volta over any of the other level 2 charging stations. Why? First and foremost, Chargepoint, Blink, EVGo costs $$$$ to the consumer (most of the time, sometimes Blink is free). Volta is 100% FREE. It makes it free by charging for the advertisements on the electric billboards. Second, the charging stations are physically located closest to the entrance of whatever store/mall/etc it is located. So you get a prime parking/charging location.
So I was ecstatic when they announced their IPO this year. Can’t wait for the future!Show lessPicklesaucegaming
New app works great and I can vote
Loving the new update. It works like a charm on iOS 14 and I even was able to register to vote right from the station. They’re even running a message supporting the USPS - what’s not to like!?
I even used the app in a garage and only had 1 bar LTE.JayTova
Won’t load with cellular data!
I love the idea of Volta, but recently, the app won’t load with my data. It works perfectly fine on WiFi, but when I switch it over to data, it doesn’t load. I’ve checked that data is turned on for the app, and I can load other pages, so it’s not a problem with the data.suzzzieee's
Lost timers on stations
Recent update removed the timers on charging stations. This was useful to have an idea when a station might be free. The developer response that they rolled back based on learnings is ridiculous. What did you learn? That people are abusing the 2 hour limit and you don’t want to be accountable? Lots of non EV cars parking at the District in Tustin locations and no one seems to care. Pretty irritating when it shows several spots open only.Show lessrageena
What a great thing!
ad-supported and business sponsored charging! Love it. And the simplicity is the best, so far no need to register for an account etc etc, just plug in and it charges. Thanks guys!
One request - the Mario is a shopping center location recently stopped working after midnight, but it’s in front of a 24hr Safeway....would be great if it worked till at least 2 am for those of us who aren’t able to shop till later.Show lessFoolio
Unhelpful
The point of the app should be that it tells you if a charging station is available. It does not do that. It only tells you if a car is actively charging. In other words, a car could be plugged in, taking up the station, but not charging. The app tells you that the station is available, when in reality it is not. They need a system to notify users when the station is actually free and available for use. It should be simple to do that.Show lessFMD31
