I hope my suggestions will be forwarded and promptly updated. The usability of your platform is very vulnerable to pollution with bad data. If there are errors, its credibility will decline and people will use alternatives like PlugShare which offers free text comments.
I was using the ABRP app when I noticed the incorrect information. I selected Suggest an Edit which opened a dialog “Report an Issue”. The title should be changed to be consistent. I selected “Charger information is not correct”.
The type field said Chademo but it should be Type 2. That field is greyed out so I had no ability to try to update it. The power field said 20kW but it should be 7kW. It was apparently editable and I entered the correct value but when I clicked Submit, the field cleared itself and no submission occurred.
BTW editing and submitting the power field value in the web browser version of ABRP does work. But even the browser version won’t allow me to suggest a change from Chademo to Type 2.

PinnedHi @Denby Angus,
Users do not have the ability to edit charger data in ABRP. Users can however suggest edits that are forwarded to the external data source.
If no changes are made by the data source, based on the suggestion after some time - it is possible to report the issue here.

The interfaces needs fixing.
