With the EV-Manager app, you'll enjoy total convenience. If you own an electric car and want to have charging management at your fingertips, our EV-Manager app will make it possible. With it, you can manage charging according to your requirements and needs. You can control a wide range of functions in the EV-Manager mobile app. Set Boost Mode and its timings, download advanced charging history where you can define the price and currency for electricity. There's also a Schedule function (charge timer), which lets you set the time to start charging (for example, during a low tariff period) and the time to end it. Charging can also be stopped when a certain amount of kWh is reached. If you are one of our offline product owners, you can use the mobile app as long as you are within Bluetooth range. This will allow you to access all the features, just like with premium connectivity. Another option is to connect via Wi-Fi. As long as your portable charger is connected to the internet, you can conveniently control it from anywhere via our cloud. And if you want even more freedom, we recommend the version with 4G connectivity, which allows you to be online truly anywhere. Our app also offers basic functions such as changing the charging current after 1 A, stopping and restarting charging. You can share the app with your entire household, so every member of the family can use the portable Wallbox according to their needs. If you own a photovoltaic power plant and want to charge your surplus energy, our app allows you to do so. Set the parameters for the power meter and connect it to the charger. You get a complete overview of the charging and the ability to control it according to your preferences. For example, you can charge only from surplus, monitor the total household consumption, and prevent overloading the main circuit breaker. We are constantly working to improve the app and regularly add new features. Join our large community of satisfied users and get countless benefits with our EV-Manager app.
