PRICES, FREE PLUGS AND THE FEES OTHER APPS HIDE — ON ONE MAP
Fernweh Charge shows the ad-hoc per-kWh price at every charging station in Germany, how many plugs are free right now, and the session and blocking fees that decide what a charge actually costs. No account, no sign-in, no tracking.
WHERE THE DATA COMES FROM:
Under the European AFIR rules, German charging-point operators must publish their kWh prices through the DATEX II standard on Mobilithek — the federal open-data portal. Fernweh Charge aggregates this open data and puts it on a map so you can compare before you plug in.
WHAT YOU GET:
• Ad-hoc €/kWh prices across more than 1,500 operators and 40,000 charging stations
• Free-plug counts where operators publish live status — "3 of 5 free", shown per connector so you know whether the free ones fit your car
• Session, blocking and time fees beneath the price, because €0.59/kWh plus a €5 blocking fee is not €0.59/kWh
• Nearby list sorted by distance, with price, power and free plugs at a glance
• Filter by charging power, maximum price, connector type and operator
• Driving distance and ETA to any station, then navigate with Apple Maps, Google Maps or Waze
• State-by-state price overviews when you zoom out
ABOUT LIVE AVAILABILITY:
Free-plug counts come from the AFIR live feed, which reports changes rather than a constant picture. Roughly half of all stations currently publish it, so some chargers show "Live status not available" — and the app says exactly that rather than guessing or showing a misleading zero.
PRIVACY-FIRST:
• No account, no sign-in
• No analytics, no tracking
• Location is used only to centre the map; nothing is sent off your device
• Open-data attribution shown in the app (Bundesanstalt für Straßenwesen, Mobilithek)
