The Best EV Charging Apps

If you drive an EV around Evesham Township or Cherry Hill, we highly recommend downloading a charging app so that you can get the most out of your vehicle. Charging apps help EV owners find public charging stations on the go as well as indicate the charging level of these stations so you can plan your trip accordingly. Charging apps can also tell you if a specific charging station is out of service or currently in use. 

A common question we hear at MINI of Mount Laurel is, “Which electric car charging app should I use?” We discuss some of the most popular EV charging apps below so you can find a favorite. 

Which Electric Car Charging App Should I Use?

Have you been wondering, “Which electric car charging app should I use?” You’re certainly not alone. Here, we’ll take a look at the most popular EV charging apps and what sets them apart.

ChargePoint

The ChargePoint network has over 31,900 charging stations across the country, and the app even helps you locate charging stations from other providers as you travel. It will give you updates on your charging status, and having an account can help you charge at FLO, EVgo, and other stations.

Electrify America

Electrify America is another one of the best EV charging apps. This app focuses on nearly 1,000 Level 3 DC fast chargers with more than 4,000 ports. The network is growing rapidly, and the company is working on luxury charging stations. The Electrify America app sends notifications when chargers open up, and you can track your charging status. Keep in mind that if you drive a Tesla, you will need an adapter to charge with Electrify America.

PlugShare

PlugShare is one of the most popular EV charging apps because it features hundreds of thousands of EV charging stations across many networks, including ChargePoint, Electrify America, FLO, EVgo, EV Connect, Volta, and more. Enjoy real-time information about charger availability and filter your options by charging type.

EVgo

EVgo is one of the best EV charging apps because you can book a charging station in advance. You also have the ability to monitor your session and see other real-time charging details on the app. What’s more, you can even earn rewards for your activity in Hamilton Township and beyond.

Volta

Volta has the largest network of free EV chargers in America. You can also check the availability of chargers as you travel or run errands. In most cases, Volta charging stations give you two hours of free charging, but you can pay to charge your vehicle longer. Most Volta stations work from 6:00 a.m. to midnight but this can vary.
