Review summary

ChargePoint's Android app is widely criticized for reliability and billing problems. The most mentioned issues are unexpected charges, auto-reload and card rejections, plus frequent bugs and slow performance that prevent charging. Users also report poor customer support with long holds and little help. Location data is inconsistent—GPS mislocations and outdated station maps cause chargers to be misidentified. In Canada, pay-as-you-go is unavailable and payment practices feel restrictive. A minority of reviews praise the app as user-friendly or mechanically functional, but overall experience is negative due to these issues.
Pros
  • user friendly, practical, & useful
  • This was a pretty good app
  • The app itself is great
  • Mechanically, the app works flawlessly
Cons
  • Payment issues and billing concerns, including unexpected charges, auto-reload, and card rejections.
  • Frequent bugs, glitches, and unreliable performance, including slow loading and failing to initiate charging.
  • Poor customer support with long hold times and unresponsive responses.
  • GPS/location inaccuracies and outdated station data, causing chargers to be misidentified or not recognized.
  • Regional payment limitations (e.g., lack of Pay-as-you-go in Canada) and rigid payment practices.

mostly good, can't report a broken charger because it requires a photo for some reason and it won't accept one where the screen is washed out by the sun.

A recent update now forces me to login almost every other time I open the app (several times a week). Especially bad if you're in a parking garage and have to leave the garage to get a data connection, log in, then hurry back into the garage to the charger, hooking someone else hasn't taken it already. Bad experience.

It's okay but keeps asking me to review it. the pop-ups to review and rate the app keep getting in the way when I'm trying to use the app. when I've got the app open to use it I don't want to have to click out of messages about rating it etc, I just want to use the stupid thing. honestly if the chargers at work accepted contactless payment I'd uninstall it as it adds minimal value.

I see a charging station available while at my desk working. But as soon as I walk towards the company parking lot to charge my car, someone else gets it. This issue happens almost every day. Solution: I should be able to reserve it for 5 minutes under my name so it gives me enough time to move my car. Otherwise, three different drivers will be chasing/competing for the same available spot, but only one gets it. Not to mention the safety of driving within the parking lot, worried and in a hurry,

It's ok but not great. the recent update has me logging in much too frequently and the login screen isn't something the Android OS can detect as a pw input so I need to copy and paste my pw now. Also doesn't seem to support passkey login at the moment.

At a gas station, I can just tap my CC and fuel up. In this app, I need to create an account, then have the app freeze. Clear cache, restart. Works finally. Select charger, begin charging session, and.... it can't communicate... with what I don't know. I have 5 bars of cell service. So, so, so painful. I just want to charge.
