My point is, I still need some app. I can't just go up to a Tesla charger and choose to pay with one credit card or the other without involving an app.
In this case, the Tesla charging network is the only one that allows use without a cell phone app. The other charging networks are a mess, I have several apps installed for them.
You literally have to access some app to use it. Like, no matter what, you have to use an app whether that be on your phone or on a website. It is impossible to walk up to a Tesla charger and start charging with just a credit card.
Meanwhile I've had several CCS charging sessions which were just tap a credit card or insert a chipped card and it starts charging, no app or website needed at all.
So saying Tesla doesn't require an app is 100% a lie, and saying it's the only one like it is also 100% a lie. Two complete fabrications in one, nice work!
Even if one argues plug and charge doesn't need an app (even though it did ahead of time to configure it), Tesla isn't the only one with that. I've had plug and charge work at most CCS charging sessions I've done. Tesla isn't the only one.
Which begs the question; do Tesla superchargers have the ability of using only a credit card or cash? Is there any plan to?
