### 1/5 — App login does not work

*2025-06-16, version 3.0.0*

I registered for mobile browser, it works well , however same login does not work via app , app is buggy

### 3/5 — Screenshot verboten

*2025-06-10, version 3.0.0*

Hi,
Warum habt Ihr jetzt mit dem Update Screenshots verboten? Welchen Hintergrund hat das? Ich kann keinen sinnvollen erkennen, dass ich meine eigenen Daten nicht screenshotten kann.

### 1/5 — App startet nicht

*2024-07-08, version 2.0.15*

App hat problemlos funktioniert, bis sie seit ein paar Tagen nicht mehr startet.

### 4/5 — Gute Ladeapp

*2023-11-13, version 2.0.13*

Die App funktioniert, QR Tagscan und Ladevorgang starten relativ flott. In der App sollte jedoch der Ton ausgeschaltet werden können. Des Weiteren springt die App aus dem Ladevorgang zurück in das Konto. Dann muss man den aktiven Ladevorgang verschachtelt suchen. Eine einfache Anzeige auf der Startseite wäre da ausreichenden, um eine Indikation zu gegen, dass etwas läuft. MfG

### 5/5 — Laden funktioniert

*2023-09-23, version 2.0.12*

Ich lade meinen 2021-er Hyundai Ioniq 5 problemlos mit der App

### 2/5 — 2 Sterne für die Optik

*2021-06-28, version 1.5.2*

Da ich aus vielfältigsten Gründen mindestens einmal je Woche mein Fahrzeug nicht laden kann, ist leider nicht mehr drin. Wenn sie funktioniert, ist die App völlig ok. Bei: „Charging point error“, „Waiting for car connected“ halt leider nicht.
