Taking a trip when there are no supercharger would be impossible without this app. We use it to find the chademo adapters when going outside of SC areas.

Great app helps me lot with a Nissan Leaf
I wish the activity feature had a filter that allowed new location searches by charger types. I like to track the new DCFC locations but I have to weed through all the new low voltage and home locations to find the DCFC locations. Its pretty time consuming trying to find the new DCFC locations. I use the app very much. The app was extremely useful on my recent trip from Texas to Colorado and back in my 2013 FFE. The biggest complaint I have with Plugshare is their censorship of user post. Many of my post have been deleted by Plugshare. I understand the need to moderate posts but I feel that what Plugshare does is more like censorship than moderation. It appears that Plugshare only wants happy posts. If you have any complaints about the charging services Plugshare will delete your posts. Plugshare is a major communication avenue to service providers and other users. Users should be able to freely express their concerns and frustrations. The Plugshare censorship is only hurting the electrification of America and the world. Plugshare should be more tolerant of users posts. There are also a lot of problems with the search engines. There is no way to do things like find out where the latest CHAdeMO chargers are without having to weed through all the other charger listings. There should be away to select just what charger type you want to look for in the new activity screen. Also the provider filters dont work very well on map. For example, when you select only the evGO filter a bunch on non-network charging stations show up.
Not much to say other than its indispensable if you have any type of EV. Continuously updated and perfected!
Every EV driver needs this app
This one is the most up to date, most active reviews and updates. Much better than the native charge network apps.
Very useful for finding chargers. Database is always current.
I really love that you can select from within this app the map specific app (eg Goggle Maps) you want to run driving directions. Lots of great user supplied pictures and insights. Filtering interface could be a little more refined, but it does the job well.
Always lets me know where the nearest charging station is.
I use Plug Share every time I plan a trip now. Even though I drive a plug-in hybrid, I like to plug in when I can. On my last trip, I located a 5MW solar array with EV charging! Clean energy!
Plugshare has been the most comprehensive and useful charging station app for the United States for quite some time. Sure, the ChargePoint app may have more authoritative information about the fees for their stations, but I always go to PlugShare first to see what stations are available in my area of interest. Look for recent check-ins to see if the station has any problems.
The app is quite good, but about one week ago, the option/icon for "Pay with PlugShare" has been eliminated from NRG EVgo stations in the app. This was quite useful, and now I have to call NRG every time to initiate a charge, and then get hit with a sales pitch for their charging plans (which arent good for my situation). When will this feature be put back in? Thanks.
While not perfect, PlugShare seems to have the most accurate charger terms/locations. Im in the Houston area, so your mileage may vary. Nice layout. I like that NRG has representatives posting updates on the locations.
No problems with the app nor customer service.
As far as I know THE source for charging locations. Genuinely critical for the future of transportation. I hope you guys can keep it up.
This app is extremely helpful when you drive an EV. Find any charging station anywhere. Detailed info for each location. Directions to a selected station. Read comments and photos from other users. Definitely a must have app as an EV driver
A must-have for any plug-in electric car owner.
Very easy to use, my go to app to find EV charging stations. The list of stations keeps growing. Useful info about the stations too.
Great app! I rely on this app whenever I have a longer trip than usual and its gotten so much better over the years!
One of the best
