Works with
Mobile app
Everything about your car. Even what the maker’s app won’t show you.
Battery & charging
Level, range, charge limit, power curve, battery health. While it charges, it’s all live on your lock screen.
Remote control
Cool the cabin before you leave, honk, flash the lights, find where you parked. Sparks tells you when Renault actually ran the command — not just that it was sent.
Trips & charges
Distance, time and consumption for every trip. Your full charging history, cost per kWh, and a breakdown by use: commute, shopping, holidays.
Explore the mobile appNotifications
Your car pings you. Not the other way round.
Charge done, limit reached, battery low, doors left open. One notification at the right moment, and nothing else. You pick which ones, car by car.
- Charge complete
- Limit reached
- Battery low
- Car unlocked
- Charge reminder
- Command done

Our golden rule
We never make up a number.
Renault sends almost none of what Sparks shows. The rest we reconstruct — and we tell you. When data is missing, you see “—”. Never a guess dressed up as a measurement.
The range your car shows, exactly as it shows it.
Your battery’s health, worked out from six months of charging, give or take 2–3 points. The ⓘ button explains how.
Not enough readings to draw the power curve? Then we don’t draw it.
Everywhere
Without even opening the app.
One glance is enough: home screen, lock screen, wrist.
Widgets
On iPhone and Android, home screen and lock screen.
Live Activity
Charging, live in the Dynamic Island.
Apple Watch
Battery, controls and complications on your wrist.
Wear OS
Same thing, on your wrist, on Android.
Car app
And on your car’s screen.
The Sparks app for OpenR Link records every trip from the car itself. No more guessing: the car does the measuring.
- Pair the screen with your phone once, with a QR code.
- Energy read from the battery gauge, GPS distance, outside temperature, on every trip.
- On Google Play, as soon as Google approves it.
