Find a Charger That Works

Public chargers and home hosts across Pakistan on one map, with the price per kWh, the connectors, the power and what the last driver found.

Load-Shedding? Call Ahead

A charger goes dark when the grid does. Every public charger with a phone number has a Call button in the app, so you can check before you drive there.

What Drivers Report

Only reports made at the charger count.
  • Working

    A driver charged here. The map says how many drivers and how long ago.

  • Queue

    Cars are waiting. Drivers say how many, so you can plan around it.

  • Not Working

    No power, or it won’t charge. No Power is usually load-shedding, so it clears after an hour.
