Ford continues to innovate with the Ford F-150 Lighting and the Ford Mustang Mach-E electric vehicles. When you purchase a Ford EV, we highly recommend downloading the best EV charging apps to help you plan your route along Moorestown when you need charging in a pinch. Say goodbye to range anxiety!
When you’re heading out of town on summer vacation, these apps can help you find the closest public EV charging stations so you never run out of battery power on your excursions.

We’ll discuss the best EV charging apps to use on your phone to give you the top EV ownership experience. Feel free to connect the app to your Ford’s infotainment system to use it in your vehicle. We’ll also give you the answer to, “Which electric car charging app should I use?”
When examining the most popular EV charging apps, they should be comprehensive and deliver a one-stop app for your EV ownership needs. We recommend using more than one app because your needs might change with local charging versus on-the-go charging when driving long distances.
Look for these features among the most popular EV charging apps:
Which electric car charging app you should use? Start with one that plans routes when you leave Pensaukken and chart a course to an unfamiliar territory. Luckily, there are plenty of public charging stations. There are more than 60,000 public charging stations in the United States, with more than 8,500 as DC Fast chargers. You’ll find them in urban centers and along major highways to make travel easier.
Electrify America has more than 1,000 DC Fast Charging Stations across the country with a total of 4,000 charging ports. As Electrify America expands, it will build charging stations similar to convenience stores. If you join the Pass+ plan, you could get discounts on future charging sessions.
Many public charging stations cost money. Volta’s network gives you access to free public charging stations across America. They’re commonly found at malls, retail outlets, and grocery stores. Free charging, usually at Level 2, is allowed for up to two hours at a time. Make sure the Volta charging stations are compatible with your vehicle.
The ChargePoint network boasts 31,900 charging stations and growing. The ChargePoint app also connects you with charging stations from other networks. You can pay directly through the app, which is handy. ChargePoint lets you schedule charging at stations and track your electrical usage.
You can reserve a charger ahead of time based on your current location with EVgo. It also gives you real-time charging updates as your vehicle’s battery gets more juice. You’ll also earn rewards the more you use this network, making future charging more cost-effective. Filter your search by location, charging type, and connector.
PlugShare is one of the best EV charging apps because it searches all of the most popular EV charging stations, no matter the network, to give you the ideal choices along your route. So, it’s very easy to use when you are in an area with unfamiliar options.
The Google Maps app can find the nearest EV charging stations to your location, regardless of the network. It can also plan a route for the best results, to go along with other handy features like road closures and road conditions that Google Maps can do.
Make sure to use a real-time traffic monitoring app to see where you need to avoid rush hour jams, accidents, construction, weather, and more. You don’t want to run out of juice in the middle of a traffic jam!
We recommend using multiple charging apps to get the most out of your EV driving experience. They’re all free to use, so get charging today!
