A Better Routeplanner (ABRP)

The app is so woefully broken that the logout button doesn’t even work. I just installed the latest update which claims “bug fixes and improvements” but fails to fix the issue that prevents the app from functioning at all. Trying to plan a route to anywhere fails instantly. I personally don’t use this app for navigation, but I do like to use it for planning trips since it lets you set many starting parameters and such that Apple Maps doesn’t allow. I’ve used the website, which does still work, so it is indeed the app that is the problem. Please fix the bugs that actually affect users.

The app is great and works very well with the OBD reader. I wish the app and subscription could be shared with family so we didn’t need multiple subscriptions when sharing a vehicle.

The app always says, “We could not calculate your plan,” regardless of the start and end points. The Find Chargers feature works well, but I already have another app for that. I don’t see the point of a route planner that can’t plan routes.

The idea for the app is awesome. The execution leaves something to be desired. The mapping interface blows, and loses its place easily. It tried to route me the wrong way onto the interstate. Interfacing with the car is problematic. It’s connected and can see the right charge level, but it does its calculations with some other number. It should focus on finding chargers on your route and then handover navigation to a better app. I’m sorry I paid for it.

Bought a premium subscription, continues to ask me to buy a subscription to unlock features. Can’t select my car to create a plan, and - having relied on the website to get to my current location, says there is no route back. Paid $49.95 for uselessness.

I’ve tried this app a few times over the years. Decided to fully trust it on a drive from SLC to Seattle. Started fine outside of a few UI bugs in the CarPlay nav for the app. But in the final stretch to Seattle it kept trying to get me to take a crazy detour that added 2 additional hours to the drive… a detour with even worse charging selection than the ideal path. I tried to give the app a gentle nudge by driving the ideal route, and even after rerouting the app it wanted me to get off the freeway and double back. While the routing is absolutely terrible, the one thing it excels at is range estimates via OBD II port. What a mixed bag. It’s a shame… I’ll try again someday, but it’s not ideal for me yet.

Incredibly frustrating app for planning multi-stop EV road trips. Stops insert unpredictably, can’t be reordered, and there’s no drag-and-drop like the desktop version. Wasted over an hour trying to build a simple loop. Planning should be this app’s strength — but on iOS, it’s barely usable. Stick to the desktop version. Or better yet, fix it developers!

They’re happy to take $50 a year in subscription fees, but they won’t update the map in a timely fashion to show new Superchargers even when people repeatedly write them repeatedly to tell them. Cortez Co has had a Supercharger 6 weeks now. It’s the first one in the area so would be very important to use in trip planning through this remote area. Yet you won’t update it to your system despite multiple posts in your forum. Major fail… Subscription canceled.

Unresponsive, incomplete. Planned routes have you driving till you have only 10-20% power. Impossible to close route once you’ve started.

This used to be a helpful app but it no longer works reliably. I can't reinstall the app every time I want to plan a trip
