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.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Chargemap at 4.2 against EV Navigation's 2.6. Chargemap also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs every 3 months) and review sentiment (56% vs 33%). EV Navigation's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
