The problem
OnePlus users at airports and public spaces struggled to locate charging stations, relying on maps apps not built for this need. An opportunity to add contextual utility directly in the OS.
Goal
Ship a native feature enabling users to discover nearby charging stations (airport gate pods, malls, and public spaces) from the device.
Outcome
Feature shipped globally. Strong adoption in travel-heavy user segments. Covered airport gates, malls, and public infrastructure across markets.
