EV Connect Reviews

by Felix Mendeldog

I tried to use EVConnect at a local Ev Connect plug—each time the machine reported ‘an error has occurred’ but without any detail about the error. I fiddled with EVConnect for a while: I reentered my credit card info (even though the plug was free) and that all other login info etc. etc. was correct. Reentered. Confirmed. ‘An error has occurred.’

I remembered that I had a tiny EV Connect key fob for which I had paid $7.50. I scanned it at the plug: ‘an error has occurred.’

I opened EVConnect again, found the setting where fobs are linked, deleted it, then relinked to through EVConnect . Just for kicks, tried EVConnect again: ‘…error…’ Tried the re-linked fob: actually worked.

In short: EVConnect doesn’t work; but relinking my fob did actually work. Frustrating, useless error messages.

Our station here has been great to have. However it’s been really frustrating to know of many many people calling in the second (defective) port and nothing ever happens to get it fixed.
These two ports are the only ones in a large area of increasing numbers of EVs (and annoying Tesla drivers who prefer to hog this one to the 15 (!) dedicated Tesla only stations a few miles up the road).
When can we see results here? It’s been MONTHS!

I’ve been to a variety of charging stations and this is one of the most difficult machines to “get to the final step” as in charging the car. I would recommend removing the START button on the machine. ChargeHub I can plug in my car and using EVConnect , start charging my vehicle. I’ll still use your charging stations. Thank you

Sometimes this station connects without issue with EVConnect . Sometimes I have to start it at the actual machine. Overall good experiences the last three times I used it.

Easy to use app and charging stations that seem very reliable. But lacks key text notifications, like when an occupied station becomes available. But overall, easy to use and reliable.

This is a great app! It doesn’t only show you whether there are chargers available at your favorite ChargePoint stations, it tells you EVERYTHING you need to know between EVConnect (which lets you know the length, amount, and cost of your charge) and it’s communications (via text) that confirm your charge has started, and when it has finished. 5 stars from me!

New to using public chargers. Been driving electric for years but always charged at home. This made it very frictionless but wish the rates were slightly better…but that’s not the apps fault

So far so good, never had an issue locating EV charge stations. Also never had a problem getting my EV charge started.

Out of all the electric vehicle charging apps this is definitely the best! Very quick, easy to use and incredibly responsive :)

Works like a charm! I had problems earlier this year and I read others did as well. But this visit everything works great and it’s FREE! Thanks Westin. Also please be courteous when occupying the space. There’s another charging station on the property that has a non-charging vehicle in one space. Not plugged in. For days. Not good.

I am really enjoying the new mobile app experience. I appreciate your team taking to consideration driver feedback. I look forward to seeing this company doing well in this space.

Simple to use. Open EVConnect , select available Charger and begin charging. $.32 charge is minimal or a destination charger and customer support is excellent if you have trouble connecting.

I try not to use the quick charge too often, I heard it degrades the battery faster. But when I need more range and don’t have all day to charge, this is really helpful.

by LoveNicki

Haven’t had any issues & the location is very convenient! If you don’t have a home charger this is a good place to go. If you have a Tesla this is a great alternative because you don’t want to supercharge so often!

I like the new design, basic functions are easy to use. I’m an active user, I noticed a few hiccups when it first launched, but they were able to address all concerns quickly and things seem stable now. Nice work, guys, thanks for listening to your users.

This weekend has been my first of public charging. EV connect has been the easiest interface that I’ve come across. Thank you for making this easy for all of us who care about electric vehicles and the environment.

by EvanElevenRoden

One of the best charging apps on the market. Excellent interface and easy to use map. Overall, this is a must-have, even if only a few chargers in your area work with it.

The old EV Connect app was on par with Greenlots and ChargePoint (which is to say passable, but not great). The new release of the EV Connect app is a huge leap forward updating the UI and the charge station interactions. It looks like someone has finally built a real mobile app for the EV driver that behaves like the best iOS apps out there. Great job EV Connect! PS: Now can you give us facial recognition?

Charge station is great and convenient for non-Tesla brand ev. Just make sure u turn off you start stop notifications in EVConnect or you’ll receive about 100 text and emails…this site starts and stops charging frequently…so lot of notifications 😕

by Convenient Location

This charging station is convenient bough to get my grocery shopping done at Trader Joe’s amd it’s right across from Westfield Fashion Square. It’s kind of hidden since the plug hangs off of the electric pole and lowers itself when you are ready to charge.

Takes EVConnect too long to start your charging session! The price for the charging is high as well but when u have to charge your car u gotta do what u gotta do. Seems not to charge car fast but once charging is done the charge lasts a pretty good while. Need to do some bug fixes with EVConnect .

Great evening charging app. Easy to use, especially with the q-code on each station.
Would be great if the station could be marked and would send a notification when available

by Shorti317

This spot is so convenient for me. Charge it while I’m working and it’s done before I’m off. The workers in the business nearby are very friendly.

It shows charging information that help us to make time.
