Hi, I'm the developer of MyB. Thank you for using my app. MyB does not currently display the estimated charge completion time. I'll gladly add this with a couple of other changes when I have some time over the next few weeks. John

The Mercedes-Benz US-based servers changed their login process yesterday (Wednesday) morning. I modified MyB's servers to accommodate the new procedure. MyB users in the US experienced this as an outage, then the app returned to normal. No change necessary in the MyB iOS/watchOS apps. Apps that...

I'm sorry you weren't able to download it. When you visit the following link on your iPhone does it open the App Store? https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/myb-ev-charge-and-departure/id1193825372 Thank you, John

Hi Jeff, I'm sorry you couldn't find MyB in the App Store. I've observed that Apple displays it far down the list when I do a search for "MyB". Here is a direct link to MyB: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/myb-ev-charge-and-departure/id1193825372 I hope you enjoy using it! John

It's likely there would be no loss of functionality if I extend compatibility to iOS 9.3. I originally limited the app to iOS 10 because that's what I had and there had been an autolayout / text formatting bug in early iOS 10. I will consider opening downward compatibility in a future version.

Yes, the website started working around 11:45 am Pacific Daylight Time. I called Mercedes-Benz USA Customer Care earlier this morning. The representative with whom I spoke was not aware of planned or unplanned downtime of the website. She successfully reproduced the error and was surprised that...

Some of you probably noticed the My Mercedes Electric (US-only) website outage. At the time I'm writing this the outage has been going for close to 10 hours. I can't do anything about the outage, but I can point you to a status page. I built this page so MyB users can figure out why their...

When I leased my B-Class in 2015 there were two levels of mbrace. I chose the lower level, which included My Mercedes Electric. Since then the mbrace subscription levels have changed. According to the new levels you need the "mbrace Connect package" because it provides the "My Mercedes Electric...

Thank you for trying MyB! MyB requires a login to "My Mercedes Electric" (if you are in the US) or "Mercedes Me" (if you are outside the US). If you are able to login to one of these sites then you can use MyB: * https://app-242-am.secure.mercedes-benz.com/ *...

Thank you to everyone using MyB! I hope you continue to find it useful.

Hi Jeff, Thanks for the reply. I'm happy to work with an Android developer if there is a significant demand. The REST API on the server doesn't care what OS the client uses. John

Hi Alex, I understand anyone's reluctance to share credentials with a site. That is certainly your right and I respect it. For those who want to know how I protect the security of the credentials please read the FAQ page describing my security procedures...

Hi all, I'm looking for beta testers for my new iOS/watchOS app, MyB. This app displays charge and lets you update departure time from your iPhone, iPad, and Watch. I'm aware of EV Access and I think EV Access is a wonderful app. The primary difference between MyB and EV Access is that MyB...
