Find phone charging stations near me
Low battery and no charger? Plug Atlas shows public phone charging spots near you on a free map. You don't need a car, an account or a credit card. Open the map, allow your location or type a city or ZIP code, and the nearest phone chargers show up.
Where people usually find a free charge
- Public libraries, which often have outlets, USB ports or charging lockers.
- Airports and train or bus stations, with charging seats and kiosks near the gates.
- Shopping malls and food courts, with charging towers and lockers.
- Hospitals, clinics and other waiting areas.
- Coffee shops and fast food places with outlets for customers.
- Charging kiosks and vending machines run by local businesses. Owners can list them on Plug Atlas for free.
How to use the map
- Open the map and tap “I need to charge my phone.” The map switches to phone chargers only.
- Tap the location button, or search a city, ZIP or postcode, or address anywhere in the world.
- Tap a pin to see the ports (USB-C, USB-A, Lightning, wireless), power, hours and directions.
- Turn on Open Now to hide places that are closed.
Where the data comes from
Phone charging spots come from OpenStreetMap, a free map built by volunteers, and from station owners who list their own machines. Coverage is better in big cities. If a place you know is missing, it can be added to OpenStreetMap, and owners can add their kiosks here.
Public chargers can be out of order or behind a counter. Check the details when you get there, and use your own cable when you can.
