Log every charging session โ date, mileage, battery percentage, energy delivered, cost, and currency โ for one or more vehicles, and let the app do the math for you. FEATURES โข Track charging sessions with car- and station-side energy readings โข Automatic average consumption (kWh/100km), charging losses, and cost-per-km โข Monthly and yearly spending & energy statistics, broken down by currency โข Support for day/night electricity tariffs โข Works fully offline in guest mode, or sign in to sync across devices โข Light, dark, and additional visual themes EV Route Log Pro (optional, auto-renewing subscription) removes ads and unlocks tracking more than one vehicle.
