As well as software execution. You can see queue times for superchargers, how many stalls are out of order etc, all on the map in each Tesla which is very convenient when on a roadtrip

Zapmap and carplay/android auto at least in the UK covers this.

Currently, the best chargers in the UK (for convenience, and as much as my limited experience has been) are Instavolt: contactless payment, no app.

Not quite as convenient, but familiar for most people. Parking meters are worse!

I hope other OEMs are competent enough to integrate that functionality.
