Reviews of BMW ChargeForward

  • This App Has ONE Job...

    Ditto on all of the comments re: departure times being overwritten & uncertainty introduced as to whether car will actually be charged when I need it. My biggest gripe is that the app was sold claiming to avoid charging during my utility's peak period which it clearly does NOT. We are on a time-of-day plan with our utility which sets the highest rates during the peak demand window 5:00pm to 9:00pm on weekdays, yet the app would regularly start charging within this window...DUMB!!! I guess not so surprising since the app never bothered to ask which power utility/ plan we were actually using. It's so much easier just to set the charging start time in our iX to 9:00pm every night using the car or My BMW app (which thankfully, works much better)...
  • Do not use

    Nearly impossible (or actually impossible) to go back to normal. This app randomly charges and overwrites everything on the car charging and departure schedule - even after you try to cancel and delete the app. Stay away!
  • Great concept, horrible execution

    Want to add to what others have said on departure times. I keep setting up my weekly morning departure schedule and the next time I log into the app it’s been erased with some random evening departure time taking its place. One morning woke to find car hadn’t charged at all overnight. I don’t really care about the incentives… love the concept of timing charging to optimize grid, so gave it 2 stars just for the initiative and effort, but right now it doesn’t work.
