### 3/5 — BYD Atto 3 2026

*2026-06-01, version 5.0.2*

The app needs urgent attention!! Charging doesn’t start, I had to call the customer care and they remotely started charging!! The app doesn’t show me a stop option, again call the customer care and they remotely stopped charging!!

### 1/5 — Register, re register

*2026-05-26, version 5.0.2*

The instructions in the station say scan this QR code and download the app. First off it gives you the wrong app. Then once I got into said wrong app then there’s the bp pulse app so download this. But first register in the bp me app, then re register in the Bp pulse app. Same details but oh no can’t communicate that. Then register a payment method just don’t select PayPal cause Tis requires you to login and verify and re verify and then it won’t accept it anyway. Do then you go with credit card…. Rinse and repeat registration and verification. So now I’m 15 minutes into my stop and still not charging. So now I’m registered and verified step two select your station but hey let’s not put in a way to scam the QR code from earlier no just zoom in on a map and get the closest one. More make sure you’ve selected the correct charger correct connection and paid for it before you even take the charger out of the damn socket otherwise get ready to do it all again. Not put it in the car charger and wait for it to think about it a hot minute before actually chargers. 
Yeah it was a terrible experience.

### 4/5 — More super fast charges needed

*2026-05-21, version 5.0.2*

I’m at Murulan. Only one Tesla and one non-Tesla charger at 75 kw.
I had just recharged in Sydney at 350 kw in 11 minutes. Please install more super fast chargers especially on the highways.

### 1/5 — Not very good

*2026-03-08, version 5.0.2*

App constantly signs you out for “security” if you don’t use it frequently enough.

App barely has any models of car listed and is terrible out of date.

I still have a pending $40 charge to my credit card days after I charged even though they’ve already debited the total amount of the charge which was a quarter of that. It also did not mention this hold at any point which is questionable.

### 1/5 — There’s an error registering you’re account

*2026-03-07, version 5.0.2*

Why does it need a new account anyway, don’t you have bp me app already? A brand new app that doesn’t work. What’s the point

### 1/5 — Only works in Australia

*2026-01-13, version 5.0.2*

Despite BP and BP Pulse being a world wide brand, be warned that this app only works In Australia. Of you travel overseas there is no way to pay other than using the app, and the app doesn’t work. This is a great way to get stranded thanks to terrible app design choices.

### 1/5 — Most difficult chargers to operate

*2026-01-11, version 5.0.2*

Trying to charge with these is so difficult there are no QR codes on the machines. When trying to insert your card nothing happens and if you try to tap and pay it doesn’t recognise your card at all so you have to download the app and then go through the multiple of button pressing on the screen. You think this mature technology would be easy to use by now but obviously not.

### 1/5 — Dark mode icon

*2025-12-21, version 5.0.2*

Dark mode icon please!!!

### 3/5 — Need to automate tax invoice

*2025-11-28, version 5.0.2*

The charging experience is fine, along with off peak charging rates, though need to automatically send a tax invoice rather than email a request each time.

### 1/5 — Avoid if less than $50

*2025-10-08, version 4.1.2*

My wife and kids tried to use this app to put $10 charge in the car to get home. The app refused to accept the card because the balance was too low, it wanted to reserve $50. My wife and kids were stranded in a highway at night with not enough charge to get to another charge point. Contacted their emergency number and the message was basically “too bad, so sad, next time have more money in the account” utterly disgusted by this response!
