Constant app glitches, scheduling failures, and connectivity issues
I am incredibly frustrated with my Sync EV charger. While the physical hardware seems fine, the software integration and cloud connectivity have been an absolute nightmare to deal with.
The app is completely unreliable and riddled with glitches. Options constantly switch themselves back on without my permission, and the interface frequently freezes up with conflicting messages such as simultaneously trying to enforce a local schedule while throwing error pop-ups claiming "Solar cannot be enabled" due to load balancing configuration issues.
Worst of all, the communication between the Sync EV server cloud and the grid completely breaks down. The charger regularly fails to report its true status to external apps. I am constantly hit with "Not plugged in at home" errors on my energy app because the wallbox refuses to acknowledge that a vehicle is physically plugged into the socket.

I have spent an exhausting amount of time trying to troubleshoot this system myself—manually power-cycling the unit at the main fuse board at least 10 times and completely disconnecting and reconnecting the app links 6 times. Nothing works, and the user experience is incredibly frustrating. The software should seamlessly manage smart charging, but instead, it requires constant babysitting and endless manual resets just to get the apps to talk to each other.
