Product design at Laddkoll

Sweden’s largest marketplace for electric car charging. Laddkoll helps electric car drivers find the nearest charging station. A common issue for EV drivers is range anxiety. Laddkoll gathers all public charging stations in Sweden. In the app can the user connect the car to the station, charge, and pay all through the app. I worked as the only designer on the Laddkoll team.

With ease of use as top-of-mind

The idea with Laddkoll is to make owning an electric car as easy as a petrol car. I put a lot of focus on quickly seeing the outlet that fits your car and the current off the charger.

Clean & Easy Homescreen

I aimed to design a home screen for the app that is simple and user-friendly. Users can quickly find the nearest outlet and check the current status of the charger. By focusing on the map and placing the menu as a floating element on top, the design achieves a balanced look.

The user will quickly see where the nearest outlet is and the current status of the charger. Putting the focus on the map and having the menu floating on top made the design very balanced.

iOS & Android

We decided to develop the app using React Native for several compelling reasons. Primarily, it allows us to efficiently launch both Android and iOS versions, enabling us to rapidly iterate and enhance user experience. I made a design to fit both platforms, with minimal adjustments in the code to get that native feel.

Iterations over the years

The app was successfully launched and gradually gained a few thousand users. In 2015, less than one percent of the cars on Swedish roads were electric. In 2024, Laddkoll was acquired by Voltiva, which helped continue its vision of making it easier to own and charge an electric car.
