FaraDison

FaraDison is the electric vehicle charging point map for Colombia, created and maintained by the people who use them every day.

Open the app and see, on the map, where there's charging available near you or in the city you're searching for. Each pin tells you two things at a glance: the color indicates the status of the charging point, and the lightning bolts inside indicate its charging speed.

THE MAP
• Pin color: available, reported, or out of service.

• Lightning bolts inside: fast (100 kW or more), medium (23-99 kW), slow (up to 22 kW), or unconfirmed power.

• Search for the city you're going to, or center the map on your location.

• When you zoom out, nearby charging points are grouped in a ring that summarizes the status of those below.

• A legend within the app explains each color and lightning bolt, so you don't have to guess.

THE DETAILS OF EACH CHARGING POINT
• Network or operator, power output, connectors, access type, hours of operation, and rates (when known).

• Photos of the location, so you know what to expect before driving there.

• Reports submitted by the community and when they were last verified.

• "Get directions" opens the navigation app you already use on your phone.

KEEPING IT UP-TO-DATE TOGETHER
• Report a problem: what's happening, how urgent it is, and, if you want, a photo.

• If you're stopped at a charging point, the app asks if it's still working. One tap and it's updated for the next person.

Is a charger missing from the map? Add it. It's seven steps, one question per step, in this order: location, photo, name, network, connectors, power output, and conditions (access, hours of operation, and rates). The photo is mandatory because it allows us to verify that the charging point exists and what it looks like. We review it before publishing it to everyone.

THE CHARGING CALCULATOR
You're standing at the charger and it asks you how much power you need. The app tells you how many kWh to request: you choose your car, your current charge level, and your target charge level. It includes a catalog of 81 electric models from 32 brands and uses the usable capacity of each battery, not the nominal capacity advertised by the manufacturer. If you also specify which charger you're using, it estimates the charging time.

ALERTS, IF YOU WANT THEM
You can activate alerts to be notified when someone reports a problem at a location you recently visited. These alerts require permission, can be disabled in your Android notification settings, and stop receiving them when you log out of this phone.

YOUR ACCOUNT
Viewing the map is free: you don't need an account to browse. We only ask you to log in when you're going to post something—a report, a photo, a new location—so that it's attributed to you. You log in with your Google account. You can delete your account from your Profile within the app, or request it at faradison.com/delete-account without reinstalling the app.

WHAT'S STILL MISSING
Planning long trips with charging stops isn't available yet: it will arrive in a future version. We prefer to tell you this here rather than let you discover it in the app.
