They don’t bother answering phone either. Just buy a Tesla and use super chargers! ### 1/5 — Useless *2023-03-23, version 2.4.0* Doesn’t recognise my car which is an I4 (not on the list). Couldn’t approve email address and app just doesn’t work. Frustrating as this is based at my place of work. Had to phone their help desk to get the car charged! ### 1/5 — Time out on charger location *2023-01-24, version 2.4.0* Used this app three times and twice it hasn’t let me assign the charger it just times out. Rubbish ### 1/5 — Awful *2022-10-30, version 2.4.0* Awful awful awful. Like most other things related to British electric car infrastructure, this is a shamble. ### 1/5 — Bad but it works *2022-05-28, version 2.2.7* It works but is a terrible app. With a bad interface and a horrible sign up process. It eventually charges the car but needs work ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2022-02-12, version 2.2.7* Can’t even create an account as it keeps saying my password is not complex enough. Utter rubbish. Would give zero stars if I could. ### 1/5 — Close to useless *2021-06-16, version 2.1.3* M_ash hit most of the important points here - an app written to not use any of the modern features of iOS. No assistance filling forms. No strong password suggestion. No Apple Pay. Add to that the app telling me I’m offline when I wasn’t, it isn’t reporting device status correctly (2x 2 port machines where it claims each has one working and one broken port, when in reality only one working port total). Generally a mess. Companies think setting up chargers is trivial but time and again they show what a pigs ear they make of it. I imagine within six months the chargers will be abandoned or rebranded by another cowboy outfit. ### 1/5 — Way too complex sign up process *2021-05-02, version 2.1.0* Sign up process is way too complex and cumbersome. For some reason there is no support for auto fill on all the registration forms, so slow manual input only. No support for iOS strong password suggestion/auto fill. Then you need to register a payment method. No support for Apple Pay, or scanning a credit card. Slow manual input only. Simply not worth the effort. Other major problem is that the app lists CCS charge point as available but according to help line it cannot be used at same time as a/c so charge won’t start ### 1/5 — Won’t register *2021-01-05, version 2.0.3* Fill out the form, doesn’t send email, tried on the web, doesn’t send email. And yes I checked spam ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2020-08-29, version 2.0.0* Pile of rubbish, trying to register but won’t go past the sign up page after saying country not specified. Gave up ### 1/5 — Awful *2020-07-25, version 1.0* What a hash. Don’t bother. Car didn’t charge and customer services is a joke ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Pretty useless *2025-04-05, version 2.7.9* Just a pretty useless app. Went to plug in. Doesn’t say if connector is 1 or 2. Doesn’t use Apple Pay which means you have to type in details. Encouraging people to have an RFID card is not the way. ### 1/5 — Too hard *2024-11-10, version 2.7.9* 1. Pasting from a password manager does not satisfy complexity requirements 2. Which charging port is connector 1 or connector 2? 3. No Apple Pay ### 1/5 — Shame *2024-07-30* It’s a shame for a 1. world country to have this chargers and apps in 2024! Better buy petrol cars! EV is dead with this infrastructure ### 1/5 — Bad app *2024-07-11, version 2.4.0* I have to reinstall app every time I need to use - unfortunately many of chargers around here are ev dot!! ### 1/5 — Useless thing! *2024-05-27, version 2.4.0* This is absolutely as useless as a rubbish. The app cannot event open properly, not even mention to use! Does the company event exist? ### 1/5 — Terrible App *2024-03-31, version 2.4.0* Doesn’t take advantage of any Apple Pay etc. sign up was such an awful process too. And it’s also so slow. Selecting a charger on the map takes an age to load. And topping up an account? Why can’t you PAYG. Hire some decent developers, work on the user flow and start again ### 1/5 — Terrible *2024-03-28, version 2.4.0* Giving one star as zero not an option! Cumbersome to sign up and chargers not even displaying on location map, although they are lit and look as if they should work. Appalling service. ### 1/5 — Shame the app has to many flaws *2024-02-02, version 2.4.0* The app is so unstable , I discovered after long long suffering that I have to launch the app twice to make it work because first time you launch it you get a ghost of an app you cant log in and you can’t do anything and believe me it aint a coincidence because apparently lots of people know this. I am surprised they can’t come up with a fix for such a simple yet annoying problem. Last time they updated the app was 1 years ago !!! ### 1/5 — Awful but essential *2023-10-15, version 2.4.0* I recently bought an EV. The car is amazing and I love all the gadgets but this app makes using the EVDot chargers a complete nightmare. I have to charge regularly using an EVDot charger on my road and WOW, this is probably the worst app I’ve ever used. I try to pay using my bank card, the app crashes. I try scanning the QR code on the charger, the app crashes. I try topping up, the app crashes. It takes me 10 minutes just to get this stupid app working so I can charge the car. FIX this app!! You’re making this way more painful than it needs to be. ### 1/5 — Absolute Rubbish *2023-08-31, version 2.4.0* Whitstable- charger has no indication of which is no 1 or No 2 connector. Installed the app plus bank details only to be constantly asked to input bank details again and again…called customer service. Operative failed to work out why it wasn’t charging then cut me off. Called back 5x but no one had the decency to reply. Gave up and went elsewhere. The only thing that worked was taking £30 prepayment from my bank account. Surprise surprise….DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR AND AVOID EV Dot… ## Most praised reviews (4 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Easy to use *2020-09-25, version 2.0.3* Does exactly what it says ### 5/5 — Decent app *2020-09-11, version 2.0.2* Downloaded app and scanned QR code to start charge. Easy to navigate and worked so all good. Nice that you can register your own RFID card 👍 ### 5/5 — Works fine *2020-08-02, version 1.0* First time user today at Whitstable. Charger worked fine, topped up account with £10 but I wish you were pay as u go. Small points; App offers you to select “charger 1” or “charger 2” but the physical charger isn’t labelled 1 or 2. I’m in Whitstable Kent and in your app some of the charge points have the wrong postcode for Cardiff Wales!!!! Not that I needed to call but can you make calling the helpline click to dial? Change the number to e.164 or use Call Kit in iOS. Not a bad effort for a new company and the charge is working fine as I type this. ### 4/5 — Main functions work *2023-04-10, version 2.4.0* A lot of reviews focus on the lack of auto fill on the forms which is annoying but a one-off exercise. On its main function of charging my car it worked fine. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
