What are the Best Apps for EV Owners?

EVGo

EVGo has been rapidly growing its network of charging stations. Their mobile app nicely supplements their system, helping EV owners find charging stations close by, and providing turn-by-turn directions to the selected locations. The app also gives customers the ability to pay for the electricity on their phones, creating a complete all-in-one experience.

Chargeway

Chargeway is a great resource that helps EV owners plan trips and set detailed specifications for their charging station search. The app finds stations that match the user's vehicle and preferred charging level. It also provides information for activities nearby these stations for users to take advantage of while waiting. You can also use this app to plan road trips. Chargeway can create the most efficient route, and provide estimates on how long you will spend at each charging station.
