Stopped app and when into pod point all and used used manual charge with no schedule. Car charging but will not be on time. How do I sort or it it best to use pod point app

I have an OHME home charger . However, I use E.O.N next home app to charge the car at off peak times. The app connects to the car reliably, reads the remaining as well as ongoing charging status, charges the car as per the settings. I would urge the developers to add two additional settings that would make the app much better. 1. Add the option to add a certain percentage charge to the car battery. Currently the charging is done either as boost or upto a limit set by the car’s battery charging settings or the time limits. 2. Provide the accurate cost of each charging episode. Currently the app is unable to provide accurate cost for the charging of the battery. Thanks for allowing non Eon -Next chargers to use the app. It is a life saver.

I use this app to schedule my EV charge to take advantage of a cheap overnight EV rate. It does a good job of adding the charging control missing from the shockingly bad myAudi app, although it is a bit clunky to initiate. It works by connecting to my Audi account and manipulating ‘charge now’ and ‘charge by’ options in the car to implement a defined schedule. It works best by leaving my home wall charger (myenergi Zappi) in fast ‘charge now’ mode. When I plug in the EV (Audi Q4 e-tron) and the EV starts to charge, it takes this app about 5 or 10 minutes to detect that charging has started. I can then stop the charge in this app, having previously defined my overnight schedule. It appears that this app stops the car charging by switching the car into ‘charge by’ timer mode with a ‘charge by’ timer being set to yesterday(!). This prevents charging in the car, because the car never gets anywhere near the ‘charge by’ time which is set to just under a week away. At the scheduled time, the app seems to switch the car back to ‘charge now’ mode for the duration of the schedule. This is something the myAudi app struggles to do without all kinds of spurious errors and charging starting randomly outside of the scheduled times or, worse, not charging at all.
