Manage + Monitor + Control
The Simpson & Partners App is the one stop place to view and control your energy. It seamlessly connects to all your Simpson & Partners devices. Unlike other EV charging apps, it connects to your charger with or without internet. This gives you more reliability and convenience, especially if you can’t rely on a strong wi-fi signal at the location of your EV charger. Set up is quick and secure. We don’t even ask you to set up an account.

Let’s talk about security
There’s an incredible amount of personal data and information exchanging between your phone, EV charger and home network. Protecting this is important. Using our internet banking know-how, we provide robust security for your home network and personal data in a number of ways.
PRIVACY
When you connect to use your EV charger, we don’t ask you for any personal details. The data gathered can never be linked to you because all this data is anonymized. This makes us different to everyone else.
SECURE DATA
Charge history data is stored safely on high security AWS servers, all located in the UK. If you are considering other EV Charger manufacturers, try just asking them what data they collect and where this data is being stored.
ENCRYPTION
The data flowing between your charger and internet is encrypted. For example, network and Bluetooth settings are encrypted. We secure the data connection to the internet and the home Wi-Fi network remains secure.
