Not for Canadians

This app has gotten a lot of press and it says that Canadian and Americans now can use this app to charge. Except, only Americans can use it. Canada is still not an option, and currencies are in US amounts. Why even have it on the Canadian App store? Also activating charges is still considered in Beta in the app, which considering the entire point of the app is to charge your car, well, that’s dumb.

I was asked to change my review since reviews are important, but the app doesn’t do anything yet. I’ll give you 3 stars until the end of Sept, but go back to 1 if there’s no actual functionality by the end of the month.

Response from developer

We share your excitement and would love to bring Electroverse to Canada! We can’t promise a timeline just yet, but we’re working towards a Canadian launch and hope to be landing on your shores very soon. Because ratings make such a difference for apps like ours, we’d really appreciate it if you’d consider revisiting your review as we work towards bringing Electroverse to Canada. Thanks so much for your support!

Great App!

Love the UI, seamless fun and easy to charge my EV

Beta but brilliant

Thank god for this app! Was able to do a roadtrip NY to Florida and didn’t have to download 5 extra random apps!

Solid charge app

Been using the app for months now, and find it does a good job of finding chargers both around town and on roadtrips. Availability of chargers, etc always accurate.

KZ

Love this! It shows live availability, charger speed, connector compatibility, pricing, and nearby amenities. I really like how there is no markup on energy costs and can find, star and pay all in one app.

No more app juggling

I switched to an EV last year and had five different apps that I was switching back and forth between. Also love that I can see which chargers run on renewables

Great Visibility!

Easy to use and to see all types of chargers across the country. There are way more chargers than I expected.

Lacks stations and info

More than half the stations in my area don’t appear. Those that do lack info on the stations like availability and accurate charge speeds.

It is also WAY off on cost - listing some as costing $1/KWH! (I’ve used them and they run about $.49.

I’ll continue using the app I’ve come to trust through experience.

Promising

Still in development but preliminary search does aggregate multiple charging networks with filtering by speed and plug type.

Lacks basic functionality

Offers no advantage over apps currently in the App Store. Cannot filter by free charging stations.
