It will have hundreds of apps which it can work with, as it is going to be OCPP 1.6 certified charger! You will choose what app works for you. We will also suggest some apps. Any OCPP 1.6 app will work with it, but we will have some extended apps for video and audio components of the charger, as this is the first multimedia charger and multimedia components are not described YET at the OCPP protocol.
