Mediocre interface. Shows blue available chargers in map that turn yellow after selecting. Sometimes shows aggregation like blue 4 but expand and only 1 available. Shows available locations with cables plugged into cars. Map very slow to update may only update on restart. No notification when chargers in geobox becomes available. Requires $10 deposit for free chargers. Only positive is some chargers are free other than deposit.

Awful app. Please tell me why I need to add money to an account to use a "free" station. This was so much better when it was managed by Volta. Broken stations that Shell won't fix. Don't bother. I called them and they said yes you need to add money to the account to use it for free. Then I can't get my money back when I'm done. Pretty sure that's theft but ok Shell Their customer support is rude and they have no answers why a station hasn't been fixed in over 6 months. TERRIBLE!

The Volta app was able to show if a station was working and available. Not anymore. All stations show as 'offline' in the app. You just have to show up at the station and roll the dice to see if 1) it's working and 2) if it's not being used by someone else.
