Hi all - we’re taking delivery many months before scheduled so I’m scrambling to get ready.

What are the “must have” charging apps for mobile devises? I’ve seen some videos where Rivian navigation will show where the charger is, but not if there are any available/working and it seems you have to cross check an app.

so far I have downloaded: PlugShare, electrify America.

any insights would be appreciated along with best practices, if any (I’m a first time EV soon to be owner)

PlugShare, ABRP, EA, EVGo, Chargepoint, Google Maps, Apple Maps. That's all I've needed to use, from what I can recall.

petro Canada one as well. Flo chargers are far more common than electrify canada, which pretty much doesn’t exist outside of southern Ontario and Vancouver area.

I used Electrify Canada in Golden, Revelstoke, Kelowna, Merritt and Hope on my way back stateside. I guess that is in BC but pretty far from Vancouver.

Most of those were not in existence when I drove west last. looks like one can drive Calgary to Vancouver on electrify canada now., which is handy.

I have Evgo and ChargePoint. Those two plus EA have covered me for all charging in CA so far.
