EV Charging Made Simple: A Step-by-Step Guide Using the MNL App
Electric vehicles are rapidly becoming a common sight on Singapore’s roads — and with good reason. They are cleaner, quieter, and more cost-efficient than traditional petrol vehicles. But for many drivers, one important question still remains: “How do I charge my EV easily and reliably?” That’s where EV Charge by MNL comes in. MNL’s mobile app is designed to make EV charging in Singapore fast, intuitive, and stress-free. Whether you are a first-time EV owner or an experienced driver, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know to start charging confidently.
Why the MNL App Changes the EV Charging Experience
Charging an EV should be as simple as filling up at a petrol station — if not easier. The MNL app turns every charger in its network into a smart, connected charging point that you can control from your phone.
With the app, you can:
Find nearby chargers in real time
Check availability before you arrive
Start and stop charging with one tap
Track energy usage and session history
Receive notifications when charging is complete
Earn eco-rewards for charging sustainably
Everything is designed around one goal: giving you complete control over your EV charging experience.
Step 1: Download and Set Up the App
To get started, download EV Charge by MNL from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.
Once installed:
Open the app
Create an account
Log in using your registered details
The setup takes just a few minutes, and you’re instantly connected to MNL’s growing charging network across Singapore.
Step 2: Locate a Charging Station
When you open the app, you’ll see a live map showing MNL charging stations around you.
Each station icon displays:
Whether the charger is available or occupied
The connector type
The charging power level
This allows you to plan your route and avoid unnecessary waiting — no more driving to a charger only to find it already in use.
Step 3: Arrive and Scan the QR Code
Once you reach the station:
Look for the QR code on the charging unit
Use the MNL app to scan it
This instantly links your phone to the specific charger you’re using. Alternatively, you can also enter the Station ID manually in the app.
This ensures that you’re always connected to the correct charger before starting your session.
Step 4: Select the Connector and Check Pricing
Some charging stations have multiple connectors.
If so, simply select the connector number shown on the charger.
You’ll also be able to see:
The charging rate per kWh
Any applicable tariffs or promotions
Everything is fully transparent — you only pay for the energy you use.
Step 5: Start Charging
Tap “Start Charging” in the app.
Your EV will immediately begin charging, and the app will display:
Real-time power output
Energy delivered
Session duration
Estimated cost
You can now relax, run errands, or enjoy a coffee while your car charges — the app keeps track of everything for you.
Step 6: Get Notified When Charging Is Complete
No need to keep checking your phone.
When your EV is fully charged, the MNL app sends you a notification, so you know exactly when it’s time to return.
This helps:
Prevent over-staying at charging bays
Keep chargers available for other drivers
Avoid unnecessary idle fees
Step 7: Stop Charging and Disconnect
When you’re ready to leave:
Open the app
Tap “Stop Charging”
Wait for confirmation
Unplug the charging cable
For security and safety, the charging gun can only be removed after the session is ended through the app.
Track Your Charging History and Eco-Impact
Every charging session is recorded inside the MNL app.
You can view:
Energy usage
Charging costs
Session history
Your contribution to CO₂ reduction
This gives you a clear picture of how much cleaner your driving has become — and how much you’re helping Singapore reduce emissions.
