### 5/5 — Awesome EV Home Charger

*2026-08-08, version 3.0.3*

The app and EVHC are awesome. Very clever. I can schedule a charge. Plug it in and away it goes later, starts, and stops at the right time. I can lock the EVHC remotely and I can charge my EV remotely.
I had some teething issues with the original set up but I called Indra and they emailed me instructions to fix it.

### 3/5 — Glitchy

*2026-05-13, version 3.0.3*

Works when it wants to, often have to manually boost directly from the charger.

Pretty poor app really

### 2/5 — Good when it works but it rarely does

*2026-04-26, version 3.0.3*

We got this installed 2 weeks ago. The historic charges have random hours of charge. Like 4pm to 8am. But I have schedule from 12am to 5 am. I can see on the graph that the card charged but the data below is 0 for all. Cant change wifi from app. Goes offline often. 
I would not recommend and I’m looking for alternatives.

### 3/5 — Apps ok

*2026-04-19, version 3.0.3*

while the app is good I can’t say the same about the charger..

### 1/5 — Keeps crashing

*2026-04-05, version 3.0.2*

Has been crashing for months now. Every time I click on the charge report button it crashes. The developers know about the issue, tell me they are aware and working on a fix. It never gets fixed.

### 1/5 — Not reliable

*2026-03-28, version 3.0.2*

Charger intermittently throws the trip switches so charge stops. As the app does not tell you this has occurred you have to monitor the app all the while the  car is charging. App just says charger is off line. Have to unplug car, reset trip switch, wait 5 mins and the plug car back in and hope. Sometimes trip will throw three or four times in a single charge

### 1/5 — Awful. Constant faults and offline

*2026-02-17, version 3.0.2*

I would do anything now to get rid of this charger. It’s awful. Was told issue was with old mobile connection. Had engineer out to add WiFi. Still no better. Avoid.

### 4/5 — Works ok

*2026-02-08, version 3.0.2*

We have been using this Indra unit and app for only a short time. One problem has been getting the unit to connect physically. Shaking or knocking the housing seems to engage the connection so we believe the locking mechanism is sticking. You hear the’ click’ when it engages. Further the app is inconsistent in recording the charging. For example we charged the car last night (Saturday) but today, Sunday 2:00pm, the app history still only shows last Tuesday  as last charge. 
Overall it works but not smoothly so far.
Update:-
We left the car plugged in. Apparently it needs unplugging for the app to accept the data from the last charge.

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-02-06, version 3.0.2*

Easy to use and looks great

### 1/5 — App downgrade

*2026-02-01, version 3.0.0*

I used to enjoy the historical data this app gave me but since the function for the app to give me cost data has been removed, the usefulness of the data is significant reduced. Why the downgrade?!!
