About this app

Ready for better EV charging?

This is Octopus Electroverse. Europe’s largest EV charging network.
It will change how you charge on the go.

——

Access over 850,000 global chargers with the all-powerful and award-winning Electroverse app and Electrocard. The Electrocard (RFID) is free to order & you can do this through the Electroverse app whenever you like.

‘But I’m not an Octopus customer!’ we hear you cry - well, good news! You don’t need to be with Octopus Energy to use Electroverse - it’s open to all!

What’s more, paywalls and hidden fees aren’t our thing - we’re more ‘discounts and inclusivity’. So, once you’ve signed up, you’ll have access to every feature immediately.

You’ll also only ever get clear and transparent pricing from us. We never mark up charging rates, passing through the rate we receive from the relevant network. This also means we’re able to wrangle some discounted deals - and you can wave goodbye to pre-authorisation fees, as we absorb those too.

Sound good? Then we’ll see you in the Electroverse soon.

——

One app. One card. One place for your charging needs.
This is public EV charging made simple.

——

App features include:

- Plunge Pricing discounts = On top of our standard discounts, we’ve rolled out Plunge Pricing: discounts when energy prices drop. Green energy = greener discounts.
- Electroverse map toggle = Switches map visibility between all chargers and those compatible with Electroverse. This means you have all the information when selecting a charger.
- Map filters = Search and find charging stations via charging speeds, socket types and preferred networks.
- Detailed Charger Information = Shows live charger availability, a renewable energy icon to help you charge with 100% green energy, and important location details (such as charging costs and other parking restrictions).
- In-app charging = Charge your vehicle via the app! Simply plug in and tap 'start charge' on your phone.
- Route planner = Energise your drive with plotted charging stops along any route! Makes driving long distances a piece of cake.
- Pay, your way = Debit card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal & more. It’s all your choice.

I find this app a bit frustrating, it keeps losing the route you've asked for, and it doesn't offer the same routes as Google maps. So a preferred route (say for familiarity) might not be on this app. My recent journeys had 3 routes and electroverse only showed 2. It's also very hard to see where along the route your suggested charges are. End up having to use this, maps, and my cars native nav. Let me set a route and save it as a favourite. :o)

Ideal companion if you have an Octopus account. My biggest gripe though is when displaying favourites it does not sort them by distance from your current location. Additionally I would like to be able to add a charge stop as a waypoint, currently it does not treat it as a charging possibility. Does not link to my preferred navigation app (Magic Earth)

Hey Rick, Thanks for your feedback! Quick update: we've enabled access for Magic Earth, though due to a technical limitation on their side, the route planner isn’t working at the moment. We’ve also added sorting favorites by distance to our to-do list. If you have any more comments, the best way to reach us is by email at [email protected]

No, this map app is absolutely useless for route planning. The only way to use this app is to find your own chargers, then see if they are connected to electroverse. Otherwise you will.be taken well off your route that will result in an up to an hour of delays. Again I say bonkers!
