I regularly set Charge Anytime to charge my car by 7:30am and it works perfectly. If I look at the Renault App it shows that a scheduled charge is set up, but it bears no relation to the time that my car charges.
Is there some kind of special magic going on?

Charge Anytime uses a direct connection to the EV and so depending on your charger/EV combination, the cars app has no part in the system.
If the charger is compatible, it links slightly differently

Thanks
Not on a compatible charger
So the times showing in the app are just random and Charge Anytime is turning charging on and off directly by talking to car, by-passing any settings.

Yes, with a compatible EV but not charger, that’s exactly what’s supposed to happen
Just checked again this morning and the schedule has been changed again - the start time is still before the car started charging and the end time is still before it finished so it’s obviously being changed by the system but has nothing to do with when the car charges 🤷🏻♂️
Went out this morning so plugged in car on my return and set charge by to 16:00.
Charge completed at 15:40.
Renault App showing Selected Mode as Instant on front screen but on going to the Charging Mode screen it shows an End Time of a minute before charging started. The car dashboard is showing the icon for customised time charging.
It looks like while Charge Anytime works the app doesn’t quite reflect what is going on so I should just ignore it and “trust the process”. Unfortunately I worked in IT for 40 years so I’m not a great believer in “trusting the process”!
Mine just isn’t charging through charge anytime app. I get home, plug the car in, nothing happens at all throughout the night. One minute app says instant, next minute it’s customised.
