Flux EV is a fast, simple map of public EV chargers. Open the app and it shows chargers around you. Move the map and it loads chargers for the new area. Tap a pin to see what that station offers, then tap Directions to drive there with Apple Maps, Google Maps or Waze. What you can see • Every charger near you, colored at a glance: lime for fast charging, black for standard, red for stations reported down. • Connector types for each station: CCS, CHAdeMO, NACS/Tesla, J1772 and more. • Charging power in kW, number of connectors, operator network, cost information and when the station was last verified. • A Fast only filter that hides everything except DC fast chargers, for road trips. Private by design • No account, no sign-in. • No ads, no tracking, no analytics. • Your location is only used to show chargers near you. Station data comes from Open Charge Map, the global open registry of charging locations, so coverage includes the US, Canada, Mexico, Europe and beyond. Details can change, so check on site before you rely on a charger.
