Review summary

EVNotify is appreciated for its user-friendly design, free usage, and compatibility with several EVs and OBD2 dongles. However, many users face connectivity problems with various vehicles and dongles, and the mandatory account registration hinders offline use and privacy. Additional feature requests include dark mode, imperial units, and better logging. Some technical issues like unstable logging, lack of auto reconnect, and limited support for specific vehicles are commonly mentioned.

Pros

User-friendly and easy to operate interface.
Good compatibility and functionality with certain EV models, especially with Kona and E-Golf.
App works well with some OBD2 dongles, especially Vgate iCar Pro.
Free app providing useful EV data and integration with services like ABRP.
Lightweight app without excessive permissions.

Cons

Connection issues with many vehicles or OBD2 dongles, particularly with Chevrolet Bolt, Peugeot e-2008, and some Bluetooth adapters.
Mandatory account creation and online registration prevents offline use and raises privacy concerns.
Lack of advanced features like dark theme, imperial units, min/max cell voltage display, and total kWh consumption.
Inconsistent logging behavior, such as logs not saving properly when exiting, and interrupted charging session recordings.
App sometimes fails to auto reconnect, requiring manual navigation to settings to reconnect.

2023-07-25	Na*****	Very good app, I use it on my 2019 E Golf, if possible a dark theme would be handy for night driving. But apart from that app is top notch and easy to operate.

2022-06-07	H *****	Great app! Is it possible to show total kWh left in the battery and total kWh consumed on a trip. This was the greatest feature of LeafSpy.

2022-04-01	Pe*****	All other apps works great with ODBLink LX, but this app has issues and impossible to connect. Somehow this worked before.. but no more. Reinstalling app not solving problem.

2021-12-14	Gr*****	This is great app and I've been using it successfully for years with ABRP. However, since upgrading my phone to a Pixel 6 Pro and using Android gestures, I've been unable to get it to save logs before existing. On my old phone I'd hit the "back" button to save the log and exit. Now it just exists without saving. Hoping that the developer can fix that.

2021-12-02	Tm*****	Can't proceed without an account, though I just want to read some values offline. After having created an account using Wifi I can use EVnotify offline to read some values (e.g. SoC or SoH), except of changing configurations (saving always fails with an error). I miss the display of the min/max cell voltages.

2021-04-04	Yi*****	Great free app, must have for every EV. Would be great if it had imperial units for range and consumption.

2021-04-01	Cl*****	Doesn't really work, i got a good quality obd2 dongle, canioniq connects straight away, this one says initialization error and try's to reconnect but doesn't. Very frustrating !

2021-03-07	Al*****	Connects fine to my Bolt EV, shows battery SoC but nothing else. The Chevy Bolt PIDS are well known now, you should improve support there. I'm willing to test!

2021-03-02	Eo*****	I like the idea of this app very much. A dedicated app for EVs. However, I could not really try it out since I could not get it working. It says vehicle connection must be established but there is no way to do it as the bluetooth button on the top right corner and the refresh button next to it don't respond at all. The OBD II bluetooth dongle works with other apps, so I do not think it is the dongle's problem..
