Voltage shows you every public charger nearby, scores each one out of 100 for your exact car, and tells you plainly whether it is worth the drive. WHAT THE SCORE MEANS ChargerScore is out of 100 and weighs speed, number of stalls, whether the site is reported working, access, and how far away it is. Set your car once — battery size, maximum charging speed and plug type — and every score is recalculated for it. A 350 kW site your car cannot plug into is not a good charger, and Voltage will not pretend otherwise. FIND ONE FAST Filter to fast, free, working, or sites with plenty of stalls. Tap any pin for speed in kW, stall count, access, connector types and a Look Around view of the entrance, so you know what you are driving into. PLAN THE WHOLE DRIVE Type where you are going and Voltage draws your route with every charger along it, plus drive time and distance. No more guessing where the gap is. HONEST ABOUT WHAT IT DOES NOT KNOW Stall counts are the total a site has, never how many are free right now. Voltage does not report live availability or prices it has not been given, and it shows when a site was last verified so you can judge for yourself. ASK IN PLAIN LANGUAGE A built-in assistant answers questions about the chargers around you in a sentence or two, using only the facts on file. Charger data comes from OpenChargeMap, the open community database. Looking up chargers sends your coordinates to OpenChargeMap to fetch what is nearby. You sign in with Apple to get started. VOLTAGE PRO Finding and scoring chargers is free, along with three trip plans a week and live trip tracking on your Lock Screen. Voltage Pro plans unlimited trips, connects your Tesla through TeslaFi to show battery, range, charging and alerts at a glance, and unlocks the built-in assistant, which can also explain a photo of your car's screen and answer through Siri. The assistant needs an iPhone with Apple Intelligence. Voltage Pro is $4.99 per month or $39.99 per year, or $99.99 once for lifetime access. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase.
