Has anyone used the Apps EEVVEE, ev.energy or Optiwatt? They show charging history and stats by directly linking to the car via your Volvo ID. Do they provide good insights into how much it costs to charge your car, no-matter how you charge it (granny charge, home charger or various fast chargers)?

Unfortunately they don’t work in my region (Australia).

Optiwatt allows me sign-in but no data is shown.

ev.energy cannot find my address and cannot find my car in my Volvo account - it suggests it's not compatible. Uninstalling...

I use GRIDSERVE and Tesla charging when out and about and both keep detailed logs of speed, duration etc.
Not sure I need any more than that. GS chargers 350kW great for the 800v EV9 I can get 70kWh in 26 mins, unfortunately at 0.79p per kWh this means £55 and as much as fossil fuel which is 70% tax?!! At home only 6p overnight…..
EX30 works pretty well on Tesla superchargers, particularly the new v4 which does 20kwh in 10mins. v3 will do 40kwh in 30 mins
