Perfect to compare prices. This app shows you the difference in pricing of charge stations. It's not perfect (yet?), but it is, as far as I know, the only app which does this. Some improvements wait to be developed, like better filtering (e.g. "show only available stations with prices below xxx or show only DC stations above 150 kW chargers).

Do not charge with Tap. Every charging session with Tap ends on it's own after a short amount of time, after which they start charging "Idle time". I paid €7,00 for 4.34kWh for an overnight charging session because of this. This has happened every single session since I started using Tap, which has never happened with other MSP's.

Hi M, you've used Qwello and Allego chargers - they use idle fees indeed. Those tariffs are not ours, we're just ultra transparent about it. The app can help you find cheaper chargers as well! ^Nico

Edit: Since the support line answered and forwarded the suggestion, rating increased While I can agree that fees are lowest among the apps, it is inferrior in search. If you are in a big city it is hard searching fast chatging among the same color blobs. I would suggest color-coding those blobs based on charging speeds

Hi Daniil, thanks for the feedback – It's been great chatting more about your map experience on the support line :) We've been super focused on price-based search improvements lately, but we've passed on your detailed use cases to our product team for consideration in future developments. We appreciate you helping us make the app work better! ^KT
