Needs CarPlay/watchOS Support
I honestly don’t why the many of the reviews here are complaining about Chargefox - granted, I’ve only ever used Chargefox EV chargers at one particular location… But I’ve never had a problem with them, and they have always worked well for me, even if the interface (the way the application looks and works) is a little clunky.
It would be great to see Chargefox updated / upgraded to include widget, CarPlay and / or Apple Watch (watchOS) support, as these would allow users to more easily find a nearby EV charger, identify when said EV charger is available, monitor the status of charging and be notified when charging is complete.
When you consider the purpose of this application, it actually seems a little bizarre that widget, CarPlay and / or Apple Watch (watchOS) are not supported.

Thanks for your review Gregory. I will pass on your requests to our development team for consideration in future updates.
For payment needs more options
Biggest drawback I have seen is recently I lost my bank card and I couldn’t charge publicly cos of lack of payment options
Kindly add PayPal or Apple and Google pay on the app as method of payment so in case due to unforeseen circumstances people can pay as they go or atleast let people add some balance in the app directly through bank or some creative solution
rfid is good but still never thought I would ever need it so never really cared untill I needed one

Thanks for the feedback Rick! We've introduced 80 150kW+ chargers in 2024. We want to ensure the most possible charging options are available to as many drivers as possible.
Only one user per car
App only allows one user per car - VIN can only be used once -so families can’t have separate accounts and payments, and you can’t have separate business and personal charging records. Have confirmed this by calling support.
