Tap Messaging

Tap allows messaging between Tap users to help optimize charger useage. For example, if you are in a rush and in need of a specific charger, you can message the driver currently plugged in to ask if you are able to get a charge soon.

There are two types of messaging in Tap:

1. Direct messaging by license plate.
2. Group messaging by location. Great for locations where it's often the same group of drivers charging frequently, such as workplace or residential locations.
