Intelligent Octopus Issues with My Kia EV6!

[ChrisCSanDeigo7]

So I got some issues with my Intelligent Octopus (IO) setup. Initially, things were smooth sailing, but now my car's charging randomly during the day and the app keeps saying it's waiting to plug in, even though it's already connected at home. Tried reconnecting, but now my car's totally ghosted from the supported vehicle list. What gives? Anyone else dealing with this? Also, curious about how this thing's gonna play nice with Zappi. Any thoughts? Honestly, this is pretty frustrating!

IOs has a lot of problems with Kia EVs, so they rely on chargers to do the job. I switched to Go, and it worked much better for me.

IOs has had its share of issues with Kia EVs, and switching to Go definitely made a difference for me too. The reliability is much better man

I’ve had some issues with my IO setup too. It’s annoying when the app acts up and your car gets ghosted from the list. I’m curious about how it’ll work with Zappi.

Honestly, I have no idea what's causing the issue. The Jag app no longer works with my Octopus smart charger, and I'm not expecting an easy fix.

I've heard that other people have had similar problems with third-party charging apps like Octopus. It seems some manufacturers have changed their terms and conditions, blocking third-party access.

If you're only replacing the wall box itself, it should be much cheaper than what you're quoted. I paid around $650 for the full installation of my Ohme Home Pro. You can find wall boxes for around $650 on their own.
