Description
Charge your electric car in a smart way and pay less for your electricity bill.
Why you should use tado° Smart Charging?
• Charge during off-peak hours and save money on your electricity bill
• Save the planet and charge your vehicle using sustainable energy sources
• No additional hardware required: tado° Smart Charging connects to most electric cars. *Just download the app and connect it via your car’s user account (e. g. Tesla, Volkswagen, BMW, Audi, and many more)
To save money during off-peak hours, you need a dynamic time-of-use tariff, like the aWATTar HOURLY tariff (available in Germany and Austria - find more information under www.awattar.com)
With tado° Smart Charging, you can specify your charging preferences, such as the time by which you want your electric car to be fully charged. The charging process is then automatically scheduled to maximize the amount of renewable energy used and minimize the cost of charging, all while ensuring your vehicle is ready to go when you need it! Now you can start saving on your energy bill while balancing the grid and charging with more sustainable energy!
* Electric vehicles from following brands can be connected directly: BMW, Audi, Jaguar, Land Rover, Mini, SEAT, Skoda, Tesla, Volkswagen. For some brands (e. g. Mercedes, Peugeot, Citroën, Porsche, Ford, CUPRA, Opel or Kia) a smart wallbox must also be installed and connected. Smart wallboxes from Zaptec, Wallbox or Easee are compatible with the app.

Ratings and Reviews
Ford drivers, DO NOT USE!! Works for a while then Ford blocks you!
Have tried this a few times as it’s a great idea if you are on an agile tariff that follows the half hourly wholesale rate.
Ford is listed in the approved vehicles, however it works for a few weeks then you get an email from Ford saying they have blocked your FordPass access due to unauthorised connection! This stops you from accessing the Ford app and renders the Tado app also useless.
Then you have to go through the pain of phoning Ford and getting them to unblock your account.
When I spoke to Ford they confirmed that they don not support this or any other 3rd party app.
So, if you have a Ford, DO NOT USE THIS APP!
Do not use - turns charging off without you knowing
Downloaded this and it seemed to work fine … but then out Tesla suddenly stopped charging for no apparent reason. I could start it again in the Tesla app, but after a few minutes it stopped again. No other changes, so pretty sure it was this app that was doing it.
Very bad.
Developer Response ,
Hi Pixel-666, thank you for the feedback. It's a shame to hear that the app hasn't met your expectations so far. We are aware that the app needed improvement and have made significant progress over the past few months. We would be delighted if you would give the app another chance. Best regards, your tado° team
Can see the potential but..
Connected to my Kia no problem but their list of cars have the wrong battery capacities. Also 70% battery is a lot more range than the car display shows. Lets see how quick they are fixing this. Their home app works well so I am hopeful and expecting to revise the star rating soon
