If you made the choice to go green and bought an EV for daily driving, it’s vital to know where you can recharge its batteries.

“Drivers asked and we listened. We’ve redesigned the ChargePoint app from the ground up with tons of new features and ways to personalize and enhance your ChargePoint experience.” said the app’s developer developer. “The all-new interface is optimized for quick access to the things you need most. Now, drivers can use one app to easily find stations and start charging.”

Apart from optimizing the app to run smoother on a hand-held device, the developers introduced real-time data of any charge point, so that you won’t navigate to one that’s being in use by somebody else.

Navigation to a charging point can now be done by getting turn-by-turn direction and there is a new filtering feature so you’ll find only chargers compatible with your car. A “My Spots” option has been also implemented so you can easily access recently visited stations and the map will offer a satellite view to better locate the charger’s location.

Speaking about the map, this will be able to display over 33,000 charging points. Now, judging that the ChargePoint network has around 18,500, you can tell the app will show you spots belonging to other major companies. Sharing is caring!

The new app is currently available to download for Android and iOS devices.
