This is a huge step forward to make the charging network more accessible, though we’re surprised it’s taken Electrify America this long to offer Android Auto and Apple CarPlay support since the network was established in 2016. By allowing drivers to access the Electrify America mobile app through the infotainment system in electric cars like the Volkswagen ID.4, finding your nearest EV charging station just got a lot easier.
“Electrify America is constantly striving to meet customers where they are and make the transition to EV driving as seamless as possible,” said Brenna Corrigan, manager of the brand and digital marketing at Electrify America. “With this expanded functionality, we are integrating essential charging station navigation information right into customers’ vehicles, helping them feel confident on the road.”
