compatibility

Backward compatibility (sometimes known as backwards compatibility) is a property of an operating system, software, real-world product, or technology that allows for interoperability with an older legacy system, or with input designed for such a system, especially in telecommunications and computing.
Modifying a system in a way that does not allow backward compatibility is sometimes called "breaking" backward compatibility. Such breaking usually incurs various types of costs, such as switching cost.
A complementary concept is forward compatibility. A design that is forward-compatible usually has a roadmap for compatibility with future standards and products.

    I have an October 2022 MG Trophy and a Project EV home charger. Can anyone please advise me whether Octopus GO or Intelligent Octopus are now compatible with Project EV charger? I know that Octopus doesn't "talk" to all EVs and chargers yet. Many thanks.
