## What is I?

I‑Charj — EV charging and everyday essentials, in one app.

I‑Charj is the smart way to charge your electric vehicle across the Philippines — plus the everyday top‑ups you already use, all in one place.

EV CHARGING, DONE RIGHT
• Find chargers near you and see connector types and live status
• Check it fits — confirm a charger works with your car before you drive over
• Start and stop charging with a single tap, right from your phone
• Track your session live: real‑time kWh, power, and running cost
• Your sessions follow you, not the charger — pick up on any device
• Full charging history and receipts, anytime

ONE WALLET FOR EVERYTHING
• Top up your I‑Charj Credit with GCash, Maya, QR Ph, or card
• Pay for charging straight from your balance — no fumbling at the station
• Tap to pay with your I‑Charj value card

MORE THAN CHARGING
• Buy WiFi hotspot access on the go
• Load any mobile number (e‑load) in seconds

WHY I‑CHARJ
Built for EV drivers in the Philippines, I‑Charj brings charging, payments, and daily top‑ups together — so you spend less time managing and more time driving. With live session tracking and a prepaid wallet, there are no surprises: plug in, tap, and go.

Power up wherever you are. Download I‑Charj today.


## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.3.5 — 2026-08-28

Finalize all Service Offers

### 1.3.0 — 2026-08-25

Newer Improved UIUX

### 1.0.96 — 2026-07-28

- Notifications — now go to the current phone only, and opening the app on a phone reclaims delivery (paired with today's backend single-active-device change).
- Security hardening — secure token storage, Firebase App Check, and removal of an insecure OAuth deep-link path (from the pentest follow-ups).
- QR / camera reliability — graceful recovery when the camera permission was denied, an overlap-UI fix, and a better Android settings deep-link.
- Wallet & EV UX — auto-refreshing balance after top-up, and a clearer cable-reseat prompt on failed charges.

### 1.0.88 — 2026-07-20

Credit & Wallet

- Balance now updates automatically after a top-up — no more manual refresh/restart (the fix shipping in 1.0.88).
- Top-up acknowledgement receipt — a proper AR card you can view and share, with company letterhead and payer name.

EV & Mobile Charging

- "Add time" extends a running session in place (same session, no restart).
- Free WiFi included with charging packages is now advertised at purchase.
- Admin-managed charging packages show in the plan picker (removed duplicate built-in plans).
- Balance-short → top-up shortcut that brings you back to the same bay + package afterward.
- Live charger online/offline handling: status pill on the plan screen, offline gate on start, 10-second polling during a session, a soft "connection lost" banner, and mid-session power-loss detection.
- "Bay didn't open?" escape hatch: crisp 5-second no-response failure ("Couldn't open bay N") with a void + full-refund action; and an "End session & get refund" button on the connection-lost card.
- Smarter session-end reasons: REBOOT and USER_END are treated as "ended early," and a transient "Finishing" before any power no longer wrongly completes a session (fixes scan→start→home).
- Home banner now surfaces active EV sessions and charger-offline state.
- Kiosk-offline → auto-return home instead of getting stuck in reconnecting limbo.

UI / UX polish

- App-wide floating toasts + rounded, brand-themed dialogs (dark/light); animated Yes/No confirms; all snackbars/dialogs unified through shared helpers.
- Home screen: uniform fixed-height service tiles; shorter "Mobile Charging" label.

### 1.0.71 — 2026-07-16

No more getting stuck on the charging screen — you now go straight to your receipt the moment a session ends, whether it finishes on its own, you tap Stop, or the charger cuts out.

Clearer "starting up" — a loading indicator and a friendly note while your car and the charger connect (this handshake can take up to a minute — totally normal).

Plug-in help — if charging doesn't begin because the nozzle isn't fully seated, we'll now prompt you to plug it in and try again.

Low balance made simple — a clean "top up" prompt now appears instead of an error banner you couldn't dismiss.

Clearer battery info — on chargers that don't report your car's battery level, we now explain why there's no percentage shown, plus a tidier charging screen.
