Fantastic App

I used Chargemap (and a Chargemap pass) for a 1,500 mile journey from the UK into (and around) France and back again. Having one card that worked on a plethora of different charging networks was a massive benefit (Bye bye range anxiety!!) I would highly recommend.

Frustrating app, passable service

This app is not user friendly and it will not stay logged in. It is filled with glitches and will essentially erase my search. Frankly, 2 stars is generous. Regardless, the network isn't that bad (assuming I can find a charger). I hope they put effort into this or I will stop using it.

Frustrating app

I used this in Corsica for my rental EV.

The good - probably the most popular app for EV charging points. Did let me find various on-street or parking options.

The bad - didn’t let me provide feedback on chargers for some reason, despite having created an account. Lots of little niggles, like resolving to an address that takes you a different location in the satnav, and allowing feedback for some but not others.

The feedback issue particularly makes me wonder how reliable the customer feedback is - if it’s just too hard for people to provide accurate updates.

It’s okay….gotten worse

Does it generally help map out charge points yes.
Main issues are charge card stopped working everywhere. Only works at 70% of chargers I’d like to charge at.
Using the app is more of a chore, constant adverts for their premium service.
Getting harder to find charging rates for some chargers. They appear on the map but no rate stated. Overall not fluid to use and it’s easy to get stuck somewhere in the app.
I’ve found better designed apps, with more clear charge rates that work at more chargers I use.

Does not work

Não em dolphin mini

Não tem opção de escolha de carro dolphin mini.

Intermittent

Often the route will just go on hold & it says trying to find the best route. But it goes round & round and the route does not appear.

Potential is there

App seems quite good, but as I can’t see an option to change the currency to GBP for UK chargers it’s currently not of much use to me right now compared to other apps that are available. I’m also having some issues with deleting my account which is far from ideal.

Very easy with RFID card!

Pretty useless (still) in Australia.

Two years later, and still hundreds of locations missing. This app is useless in Australia. Deleted.

Un petit quelque chose en plus…

Utilisateur occasionnel depuis 3 ans j’apprécie la dynamique positive de Chargemap et ses nombreuses fonctionnalités et améliorations. Bravo👏 aux techs développeurs !
Une suggestion, ajouter un simple picto dans la bulle signalant les bornes sur autoroute par ex flèche gauche sens « montant » par rapport à la carte et à droite « descendant ». On trouve l’info dans la partie détails de la description de la borne mais avoir un visu direct sur la carte serait sympa! 😊 merci à vous et continuez à nous faciliter la vie électrique ⚡️ !!!

L’app non è flessibile

L’app non è molto intelligente. Dovè il pulsante “prossimo punto di ricarimento piu vicino” quando sono esatamente vicino a uno che non funziona???
Ci sono troppi distrazioni nell’app. No fa bene ciò che deve fare

Doesn’t work with iPhone SE

Tried several times to contact the company for help but nothing happened. Very disappointed as I wanted to set up a fairly long trip and needed to know where to charge.

Charging rates 2x 3x higher than other apps

Honestly don’t know how anyone could think that is correct to double or sometimes even triple the charging rates via this app.
Have a look at the alternative charging apps and you will see the massive difference in the price

Poor

Incomplete map of chargers in UK. Some wrong information. Expensive prices.

Good coverage, but...

Can't disable marketing notifications without turning off all notifications

Pretty picture

Downloaded app. Very efficient on iPhone battery use - nada - inert - ? - won’t open

Application très bien mais tarif reste cher

On peut trouver une borne facilement mais le tarif reste trop cher exemple dans ma commune la même borne chargemap vaut 0,621€ le kw alors que le prix est de 0,47€ du kw par l’opérateur local ou il suffit juste de prendre 5 min pour s’inscrire soit pour une recharge complète une différence de +3,322
Ou il y a 1,24€ pour le service pour chargemap ce que je comprends ce qui fait 2,082€ de différence sur le prix reel de la charge soit 4,43 kw de payé pour rien donc exactement 30% plus cher que de passer par l’opérateur local.
Sachant que la borne n’est pas une dépense de chargemap mais bien de l’opérateur local qui est bien financé par nos impôts car dans mon cas c’est une collectivité locale donc un syndicat mixte le sdem50.
Pourriez-vous vous justifier cette augmentation aussi conséquente ?
Merci

Surprisingly pedestrian

Sorry but this just didn’t seem intuitive to me. It only showed “estimated” charging prices in Euros, which wasn’t useful for British user and despite looking for where to change this particular currency use, I couldn’t find how or where to do this. It’s odd as elsewhere in the app it uses GBP£! Also while I salute the pricing transparency, to see the equivalent of 10% of my charging price being paid on to Chargemap - that’s rich. It’s not like they’ve saved me a bunch of money off the charging price being paid
