TTCS uses purple-blue for actions on a dark interface, with yellow-green emphasizing battery, distance, and cost. Maps, reservations, and bills address different questions. This charging station app interface needs both a clear next stop and a service record that can be checked afterward.

## The homepage combines different time scales

A battery semicircle dominates the top, with weather, date, environmental or cashback cards nearby. Nearby-station maps and the previous trip appear below. Large numbers and small labels create rhythm without turning the phone into a dense table.

These cards use different time scales: battery concerns current vehicle state, the previous trip is historical, and cashback may cover a period. Labels should identify objects and times, especially in statistics. Yellow-green locates values but cannot tell when they apply.

The nearby map shows route, distance, and time, with a floating map entry below. This home supports a quick view of vehicle and nearby resources. If long-distance planning is primary, routes need a direct entry rather than being found only through the nearby map.

## Navigation and reservation are different actions

Station cards combine charging-scene photos, addresses, fees, facility tags, and ports. Navigate and Reserve sit together, the former with a dark outline and the latter solid purple-blue. They concern one place but produce different results, clarified by both words and styling.

Reservation starts with a station summary, then dates, start/end times, port, and total. Selected dates and ports share purple-blue with the final button. Continuous state cues identify what is being chosen without requiring a new interpretation at every group.

Station information and reservation summaries show different power figures. A real interface should identify whether each concerns the station, a port, or selected service. JVDS Design Studio considers precise objects central to confirmation: location, full date, period, port, and [billing method](https://www.jvds.cn/en/share/ui-design/mobile-payment-ux-flow) should be checkable together.

## Route results should retain their input conditions

Route input includes origin, destination, load, and battery level. Results pair a map path with vertical stops, each showing place, time, energy, and cost, beneath total distance and estimated duration. Maps explain relative position; lists explain information at each step.

Load and battery are conditions, not decoration. Retaining a way to view or edit them makes routes more explainable. A blue line without conditions and stop summaries makes it difficult to judge whether the plan fits the trip.

## Payment identity still needs a service record

Payment uses bank cards and last digits to identify methods. History lists dated amounts, showing returns in green and spending more quietly. Date ranges and Statements/Analytics distinguish lists from statistics.

Card digits answer which card was used, but not where charging happened. Stations and sessions are not prominent in the visible list. For reimbursement or reconciliation, station, service date, order, and [fee components](https://www.jvds.cn/en/share/ui-design/ai-agent-task-history-audit-log) should connect clearly to payment records. Routes, reservations, and payment ultimately need to refer to one service for consistent colors to carry practical meaning.

## Connect travel plans and service records

Charging, parking, and transport apps can organize route conditions, reservation confirmation, and bill identity, defining the object and time of each card.
