I’ve been experiencing repeated failures to charge overnight, after setting charge time on the OVO Charge app (which recently supplanted the Charge anytime app).
If I set a time just a few hours away from the present, it will always charge without issue, but setting a morning deadline maybe 9-12 hours away seems to cause issue for some reason.
From previous experience of overnight charge failures, then one successful charge, I surmised I needed to set the time on the app before I plug in the car, because that was the only thing I did differently that time.
However, doing that, still no charge on multiple mornings, despite typically a spike of activity in the late evening, and the OVO app stating charging would recommence in the small hours.
Trying to see if there’s any app issues, looking at my Zappi app, it makes a reference to the deleted Charge Anytime app (see screenshot): I don’t know if this has any impact on the failure to charge or not? I’d presumed not, since it doesn’t affect immediate charging in any way. And anyway I can’t see any way to change it, unless maybe I reset it, but heaven knows what might happen, so I have to reset its links with my EVSE charger etc.
I can’t see any way not to set a time on OVO Charge, so trying to set up a time in the car instead would only just add another factor in the equation that can’t help.
I’d welcome thoughts: anyone else had similar issues with this combo? Is it something to do with the OVO Charge app not working, or the way the Zappi app interacts with it?
Seems the only way I can guarantee a charge is to set a time for later in the evening and charge it fully immediately after plugging in, leaving it sitting if I need it, at 100% overnight, rather than hitting that just before use, obviously not ideal.
Unfortunate the app doesn’t work as intended and allow delayed overnight charging, instead of just immediate.
