### 2/5 — Experience was good

*2026-08-14, version 6.1.4*

Price was too expensive. $25 to charge from 60% to 85% is robbery. Won’t be using ev connect if I can avoid it.

### 2/5 — No Joy

*2026-08-09, version 6.1.4*

I tried this app. I was disappointed that it did not find the 16 charging stations that I know exist at a nearby restaurant that has been open for over a year.

### 1/5 — Extremely poor service

*2026-07-28, version 6.1.4*

I have not been to access my account in over a year, tech support say they are escalating my issue, no one ever responds back to me.

### 1/5 — Useless so far

*2026-07-22, version 6.1.4*

I downloaded the app just to browse around and find out whether there are EV connect stations in the areas where I’m likely to travel. If you try to use the app as a guest, you are blocked from pretty much the entire app as far as I can tell.

### 1/5 — Never Operational

*2026-07-18, version 6.1.4*

These chargers are always offline. There are a total of 4 connections and they are offline 90% of the time at Turkey Lake on the Florida Turnpike.

### 5/5 — BEST CHARGING APP EVER

*2026-07-08, version 6.1.4*

after spending weeks searching for an app that will allow older iphone users to access i finally found EV Connect and i love it!

### 1/5 — Inadequate interface

*2026-07-06, version 6.1.4*

I downloaded this because I tend to collect charger apps. It doesn’t seem to have very much information about the charging stations. Perhaps they will improve it overtime but right now compared to charge hub and plug share. It’s pretty basic looking.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with Tesla

*2026-06-20, version 6.1.2*

I tried to charge my Tesla four different times. It did not work at all. Instead, I just got charged $1.62 each time with no charge, and then I walk away and it just suddenly stops working. I'm then told I'll be charged a $25 per hour idle fee. It literally doesn't work, and the user interface is terrible. I do not recommend at all.

### 1/5 — Not useful for multiple chargers

*2026-06-20, version 6.1.2*

I ended up downloading the app because I tried to charge my car at a Ford dealership. The app would not tell me which of the chargers I was authorizing. I ended up having to go elsewhere to charge.

### 1/5 — Horrible Service

*2026-06-14, version 6.1.2*

I suggest avoiding this company. I spent 20 minutes trying to activate a charge with no luck. When you call support, they will blame your vehicle when their software system seems to be the issue. I suggest avoiding any ev connect chargers since you will have to deal with this company running the back end.
