As we undertook a major overhaul of the app for version 5.0, the Amenities feature that many users enjoyed during their road trips had to be temporarily removed. During this time, we have refined and enhanced it to make it even better.
While we are still working toward the final release version, you can try out the updated Amenities feature today by joining our beta program on Android or iOS! Read more below on how to join the beta and try the new features on iOS, Android and web.
To add an amenity stop simply tap 'Add stop' and select the preferred category;
Restaurant
Café
Mall (Shopping)
Hotel
ABRP will then plan a charge stop with the selected amenity nearby.
By editing the details of the stop, you can tell ABRP when to stop and for how long.
We're hopeful this will make it even easier to plan comfortable EV road trips with ABRP.
Happy holidays!
