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.

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]

It's a nice-looking app that crashes often. I like that you can add multiple EVs to your profile to find compatible charging points (especially useful for car club users). What needs to be improved is the back button functionality. The app closes if you go back when looking at a station's info on the map screen (the expected behaviour is to close the small info card about the station). The app also closes if you use the back button on the route planner. For a better UX, check Zapmap.

I love this app. I would really like to add one additional feature that would make this app flawless in my opinion. When calculating the route, it selects 2 stops, one being a 5 minute charge and then the next stop being only 30 miles down the road being the longer charge. My additional feature would be to have the ability to amend how long i charge for at a certain charge stop when planning the route. Then let the app re calculate the rest of the route based on my amendment. Hope it makes sense
