  1. 2/5New version is a UX headache

    The old app was pretty great. Easy to see your charging status, easy to get to it. Overall a nice experience. This new version’s design is horrendous. Garish, much less legible, and a very clunky navigation. And there are two major UX issues: 1) the “stop charge” is at the very bottom of the screen…where you swipe…to view your phone. Point being it’s very easy to stop your charging accidentally, and no way to restart remotely. 2) if you close the charging status screen, there’s no way to get back to it…at least no obvious way that I can find. PLEASE fix this UX mess! Old app: 5 stars. New app: 2 stars.

  2. 1/5Even signing is impossible

    The app kept changing my phone number to my email address, then telling me to enter a correct phone number, then requiring that I go back a page and enter the phone number, then taking me back to the information entry page and requiring that I enter all of my information again, then changing my phone number to my email address …

  3. 5/5from USA, works great

    with just cell coverage in the middle of a national park; got the app installed, setup and was charging in a couple of minutes, and I’m from the US.

  4. 1/5Very Unreliable

    App kept failing to find charger, start charging, use payment, and gave no error messages

  5. 1/5Absolute garbage

    Worst app I’ve ever used. Everything is so slow. The app literally takes a minute to start up with no loading indicator. I setup auto payment only to be told that that feature is not working. I tap the start charging button and literally nothing happens. Fortunately my girlfriend was very patient and she waited enough for the app to finally start working
