Great app!

Easy access. As a new electric vehicle owner, I initially found it challenging to connect to my charging station. However, once connected, the charging process is quick and the easy access is impressive. The app also offers many helpful features, making it an essential tool for all EV users. It's a great app!

The smart scheduling features are fantastic, allowing me to charge my car during off-peak hours and save a lot on energy costs. Plus, the app's interface is user-friendly and easy to navigate. Highly recommend it!

Fantastic!!!

Electric Miles has made my life so much easier! I love how it tracks my energy usage and sends me notifications when my car is fully charged. It's great to see real-time data on my charging sessions. The app has definitely helped me optimize my charging habits and reduce my carbon footprint.

Great features

The Electric Miles app has some great features, especially the cost-saving smart charging schedules. However, I've had some issues with the app not connecting to my charger occasionally, which can be frustrating. When it works, it's fantastic, but there are still some bugs that need to be fixed.

Fantastic!!!

As a busy professional with a packed schedule, I was initially skeptical about relying on an app for managing my EV charging needs. However, Electric Miles has truly impressed me with its comprehensive features and user-centric design. What sets this app apart is its ability to integrate seamlessly with various EV chargers, allowing for easy customization of charging schedules based on my unique needs.

I appreciate how the app provides real-time updates and notifications, ensuring that I'm always aware of my charging status. The cost-saving benefits are significant, with smart charging schedules that take advantage of off-peak hours. This has resulted in noticeable savings on my energy bills.

Moreover, the app's environmental impact feature is a thoughtful addition. It tracks my energy consumption and provides insights into how I'm contributing to a greener planet. This aligns perfectly with my commitment to sustainability.

Software Problems….

I Have a Project EV. Charger, EM has updated their software which hasn’t been good at all.
After a number of emails backwards and forwards I finally got help.
A lady from the help desk rang and we went through all the settings and found some how a strange email address had landed in the section where my email should have been.
The big problem was my changer was showing OFFLINE. And there was no way to Bring it back on line.
It all turns out that this strange email address was the big problem.
Anyway all is sorted and I got my car fully changed last night
The lady who rang was great she new the App inside out .
Well done EM

All style but no substance

Whilst in the face of it the app looks good, fairly intuitive too that’s as far as it goes for me. So the biggest thing is the whole smart charging setup- I want to just schedule a 4 hour charge for the same time every night but no, it doesn’t have that option. I either need to fiddle about with smart charge settings every day to ensure I don’t charge over peak times or I need to schedule a charge every day. And to add to the annoyance, the schedule has been moved into the boost option, meaning more clicks to do this every single day. Can we please have an option to just leave the set scheduled charge that stays on daily?!

Response from developer

We understand that the current smart charging setup may not be intuitive for users who want to charge during off-peak hours consistently. We'd like to clarify that the smart charge option can be set to recur every day, allowing users on off-peak tariffs to charge during the night by simply selecting smart charge for off-peak hours. The app will automatically recreate the schedule every day based on the selected off-peak times. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to ensure a more seamless charging experience for our users. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to us.

Utterly Useless

So unreliable as to be completely worthless. I set up manual charging for 4 hours overnight but it charged for 29 mins despite car battery having capacity for at least 4 hours’ charging. Switched to smart charging for the same period and it stopped after 30 mins. Boost works after a fashion but only drawing 15 amps when it should have been 30. This is the second time I have used the app, the first in 2022. Layout is intuitive and clear but reliability is simply not there.
It scores 10/10 for unreliability, so at least that is a positive.

Updated review

Was having loads of problems with this app. Then they did an update and now it works really well and never has any problems. Feels like they released the app early, but have now had time to fix everything. I would now highly recommend this app. And well done to them for listening to feedback and responding.

Still has issues

This ap is ok and the best solution to use with a Projext EV charger but is still is not up to the job.
I have two cars and other charge one after the other at off peak. When I unplug one car 1hrs 15 mins into cheap rate and use the charge now function it only always me to pick 1 hour intervals meaning I will run over or below the off peak rate.
Also the cost function just doesn’t calculate properly
Regretting purchasing a project EV charger due to the poor app solutions offered.
