    • View settings for the current location (charge limit, charge mode, etc.).
    • View charging notifications and alerts (e.g., plug-in reminder, charge interrupted).

EV Features in the mobile app

Tap the MAP icon on the app’s home screen to view your range on a map, search for charging stations, see your vehicle’s location and more. For the best experience, set up your home/work locations during the initial walk-through or through the screen search.

  • Explore range:
    • Tap the EXPLORE RANGE icon to see how far you can travel and return back based on your current state of charge, represented by a dotted line.
    • You’ll see an alert if you’re outside the range of your home charging location.
  • Nearby charging stations: 
    • From the Map screen, tap the Places or Stations tab beneath the search bar or use the SEARCH icon to view charging stations at a different destination (e.g., if you’re traveling to another city).
    • Tap the FILTER icon (a funnel) to customize the search results (e.g., charging provider, type of charging station, charging station power, plug and charge capability).

    • If your vehicle supports Apple CarPlay or Android Auto and you’re connected, you can tap Start Driving to monitor your route. 
  • Plug and Charge: 
    • Lets you pull up to a compatible DC fast-charging station, click in the charging cable and have charging immediately start to flow to the vehicle.
