EV Navigation is a turn-by-turn navigation and route planner system, created for electric car users all around the world. EV Navigation does not only provide users with a reliable navigation system, including charging stations, but it is also capable of calculating the range the users can cover with their individually selected electric car. The range calculation takes a wide variety of parameters into consideration (driving habits, tire pressure, weight, wind, temperature, etc.), so that users have the opportunity to plan their trip precisely, anticipating the waiting time needed at charging stations. We support each type of charger (Supercharger, CCS, CHADEMO, Type 2, and all others). Charging times and the planned routes are synchronized and calculated in parallel, so that the users can spend the minimum time in waiting, while being granted a safe and the fastest possible route to their destination.

Road trips rarely go exactly as planned. You take a detour. Mobile signal disappears. A charger is busy, broken or simply not the best choice anymore. RoadToaster keeps you moving. Built for electric vehicle road trips, everyday charging and off-grid adventures, RoadToaster continues to work when other apps cannot. You can still search chargers, plan routes and navigate even without a mobile signal, helping you find your way home from remote roads, mountains and unexpected situations. Prefer regular breaks? RoadToaster plans charging around your preferred driving time, then automatically adds backup stations along the route. If one charger is unavailable, another option is already waiting. See all charging operators in one app, with access to 400,000+ charging stations in 122 countries. Before you drive somewhere, check for chargers near the shop, café, gym or place you are already visiting, and turn normal stops into charging stops. Use RoadToaster for longer road trips when charging gets sparse and backup options matter. While driving, RoadToaster shows your estimated battery at arrival. If plans change, you can route to the nearest fast charger with one tap or switch to another backup station along your route. Works with iPhone, iPad and CarPlay. You can also open routes in Apple Maps or Google Maps when needed. Adventure Ready, Driver Controlled RoadToaster stays simple when the trip is simple, but gives you control when the route matters. Set your departure battery, minimum battery while driving and desired arrival reserve. Use overnight charging, leave with a full battery, hide stations you do not want to use, and rebuild the route around your choices in seconds.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: RoadToaster at 3.7 against EV Navigation's 2.6. RoadToaster also leads on review sentiment (67% vs 33%) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 3 months). EV Navigation's advantage is ratings volume (17 vs 3) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 26.1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
