APEX EV

Charger connected up to the app fine, however, can only be charged manually, scheduled charging doesn’t work nor actually connecting it to WiFi either, it just times out.

This app is clearly translated from a different language (and not accurately). The network setting tab is far from intuitive; clicking “setting” is actually a confirm button which times out after 60 secs. There’s no factory reset option and the cached settings are conflicting with the device. As far as controlling charging, the plug and play is awful. If the car pauses the draw, the device hangs in standby. It then times out at around 30 mins, preventing a further charge request without app intervention. You can’t leave your car plugged in to top itself up or to precondition if a charging session has ended more than 30 mins prior. Simple enough to disable plug/play timeout but there’s no option in the app.

One of the worst EV apps I’ve had the misfortune of using. Suspect most of my trouble is down to how janky the project EV charger is but the app doesn’t help. Consistently loses connection to the charger. Unable to connect to WiFi for some reason so I have to stand out in the rain waiting for connection to disconnect the lead. Charging records disappearing. Don’t appear to be able to set a KWH rate from my supplier to generate a bill / cost of charging. Really not enjoying this at all.

Had couple of issues setting up the timer for off peak charging I rang the helpline these ppl are happy to help and resolved my issues with no problem at all

Recent updates have improved the app and functionality, it no longer logs you out all the time and with the correct firmware on the charger all the functions work as required. ProjectEV support where very helpful to resolve issues, so worth checking with there support if functions in the app aren’t working as expected.

Rubbish for setting off-peak charging. You can’t set schedules and if you work off your car’s schedule and set this app to charge, the app recognises the car schedule but then after 30 mins the charger stops the hold and stops the car from then taking the charge at the desired time. Another cheap Chinese failure where developers have zero thought for the customer experience for what is a major requirement when trying to charge off-peak.

This app has 0 use. It doesn’t start my car charging, won’t allow you to schedule as charge. I don’t use it at all for my EV charger. Useless!

Just can’t get the app to highlight days and times so remote timed charging not possible

The app performs like it was written as part of a GCSE assignment by someone who is learning English from a podcast. Project EV should apply some pressure as the uk distributor and get this fixed. I’d happily pay £20 for an app that works.

Very bad application. Cloud connection not working. Off peak cycle not working. I never recommend use Project EV charging stations!!!!
