The Great Electric Vehicle topic: apps and experiences with electric driving

Interesting.

I think this is the only native app that shows locations of EV chargers.

Do you plan to make it available on Chum or Openrepos?

Yes, I have used it and charged succesfully. It indeed crashes quite easily but if you search the charger by number it doesn’t crash.

If @cypherpunks releases I’ll try to find the time to package it for chum and possibly build on github …

If there is demand then I will publish it to OpenRepos.
@poetaster was always kind enough to push my apps to Chum because I still have no idea how that works.

It’s building at GitHub - sailfishos-chum/harbour-electrocosm: Electrocosm - Your EV Cosmic Horror Ā· GitHub which appears to work though I’m not sure if 22kW will cut it :slight_smile: … I’m not sure it’s worth pushing to chum, but if enough ask for it, I will. A note, you can not live test if from the sdk for some reason I’ve yet to determine (sailjail probably) but it does work.

I couldn’t get renault app working for my Megane etech. Instead of that open source (android) app Kelec seems to be fully functional.

This is great news! Hope it works with my Renault Scenic E-tech. Can’t even make the car app work on my Android phone :sob:

Yes indeed :slight_smile: That’s why I mention about open source :wink: Hopefully someone with coding skills accept challenge.

Today I wondered would it be hard to make SFOS application for https://latauskartta.fi/

Might make sense to integrate that into the same app as Evmap since they’re basically the same thing. I use latauskartta myself in the rare cases when I need a public charger, so that would make sense for me to make.

I was happy to notice that MyDS app (v1.55.9 (2552)) works with Jolla Phone 2026 (Sailfish 5.2). It connects perfectly with DS n8 car and I can control the cars functions by Jolla Phone. It started to work after latest update (both phone and app). Basically same app (with different car name, MyJeep etc) is used all newest Stellantis cars. I have noticed that the latest app update connected to servers differently than previous version, so they have made some nice changes there.

Edit: version numbers added
