Hey.
So - there are two processes for Charge Anytime
One for when it’s the EV you’re linking to (EV needs internet access)
And one for when it’s the charger controlling things.
The latter is thankfully quite clear in the instructions to begin with - no need for the Charge Anytime app, just use the add-on in the main OVO app (great news because the Charge Anytime app seems to have issues).
But then the add-on process then asks if the car has internet access or not ( but also says it needs it - which makes no sense to me )
Copy of the process for charger control copied below: which says nothing about car control
so - can we use charge anytime via the add-on, using the charger as the control method, or not?

- Go to the Offers and Upgrades section.
- Click on the Charge Anytime banner.
- Select the compatible charger that you have (Ohme or Indra).
- It’ll ask you for the username and password to log in to your charger manufacturers’ app.
- This will link your charger to your OVO account and you’ll get a new heading in your OVO account called ‘Your EV’.
- You’ll still need to schedule the charging in your charger manufacturers' app. And after you’ve charged, the savings will show in the Your EV section of your online account.
