Hello,
I've been browsing around both iOS and Android app stores recently looking for the best universal charge apps, there are lots of great applications out there individual providers like ChargeYourCar amongst others, however the most universal charge map (OpenChargeMap) that I know of has an almost useless mobile app but has a vast amount of data about charge points.
I am a final year Software Engineering student and I thought maybe I should take a shot at it. This would be my first full Android application outside of university study. I've popped a couple of hours into this so far and I just wanted to gauge opinions and see if you, as EV drivers, had anything you would like from a charge map application.
I've attached some early screen shots of the application which currently grabs data from the OpenChargeMap API and breaking it down into a viewable form (currently all chargers show as the Green Fast Charge icon however this will be changed to reflect the type of charge and status further down the line.
