### 3/5 — App crashes

*2023-09-30, version 8.5.7*

Crashes every time I try and take a photo with my phone camera. Upload from library is fine

### 5/5 — I love this app

*2021-10-29*

I think I’m the only one that uses the app though. Today it’s not working and that makes me sad. ☹️

### 4/5 — Good app but ....

*2020-02-15*

Good app seem to be complete . But there is a bug when you push the navigate button . It open map then nothing! No pushpin no route from the current position.

### 2/5 — Good app but few bugs could easily be fixed

*2020-01-26*

Power power slider has several problems:
1. Difficult to slide to a specific number
2. Doesn’t show the range as number, and when you tap to check it, you can change the setting 
3. The set minimum setting is >, not >= which is what it should be.  It’s is NOT setting the minimum power!   Rather, it’s minimum-1.  If I set it to 10kW, it shows stations of 11kW or higher. 
4. Finally, if a station has multiple available power options, it is sorted by it’s lowest power.  As a result, a station with 3kW and 50kW options won’t show if I set the bar to 5kW minimum

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review. Work has begun to fix these specific issues and they will be addressed in the next update!

### 2/5 — Too many bugs and external interface is

*2019-01-26*

Cannot except iPhone 6 X pictures, cannot open/integrate with iPhone camera for taking pictures. Good suggestion would be to document free versus paid services by some color scheme

### 3/5 — Good, but...

*2016-05-18, version 5.2.5*

Good comprehensive list of chargepoints, but app crashes a lot and hangs on welcome screen.

### 1/5 — locks up on iPhone 6

*2016-04-24*

Too buggy to use; after touching the center on my location button, it locked up and became unresponsive. I deleted the app.

### 1/5 — Confusing

*2015-06-27, version 5.2.5*

I tried this app for a few minutes then I couldn't search for ev points in the UK as it kept searching all over the world randomly, very confusing and difficult to use

### 1/5 — Not a functional app

*2015-05-30*

Partial data and buggy interface. Needs a rewrite.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2015-05-27*

The filters don't work at all. Don't waste your time.
