User comments

Great! There's always room for improvement but not overburdened with annoying nonsense at all. The crowdsourced information is especially useful. It allows me to see either deteriorating maintenance or good maintenance and expense per kW thereby making future choices for charging providers. Far more complete and reliable than G what's their name.

easy to navigate, so far accurate locations. The only thing that I would add to complete the information would be the name of the app used for chargers so you can install them ahead and not waste time at the charger.

Basically GasBuddy for EV drivers. Although it doesn't have a rate feature, only locations and availability (and other obvious things like reviews and photos). I especially love the check-in feature, which is how you get availability of stations. But it's only as accurate as the people using the app, so if you have an EV get out there and use it!

Summarize
