Cannot connect to phone app after supercharging

I had an issue with supercharging this weekend.
I went to a few superchargers for the first time and had issues connecting to my phone app. After I connected the supercharger my phone app would not connect to the car. It would just say trying to contact car. Thinking it was the app not working properly so; forced closed the app, restarted the phone, and even uninstalled and reinstalled the app with no avail.
Well when I finally reached my destination I still could not connect so I rebooted the car with steering wheel knobs and that seemed to do the trick. I had no problems the whole weekend even when I connected to a public charging station.
But the same thing happened on the way back down after connecting to the supercharger.
Not too concerned about getting this looked at immediately since I don't use the superchargers very often but was wondering if this has happened to anyone else?
 
I experienced this yesterday as well. I was supercharging and wanted to monitor the process. For the first 20 minutes it wouldn't connect and then afterward was fine. I've experienced other ups/downs with the app connecting lately as Nigel mentioned and think it's just coincidental to your timing. It appears to have been in my case.
