Google Play (Android obviously) is showing an update to the app on 30 September however I'm still on 5.28 which shows a release of 8 September. Anyone recieved the latest update?

No visible updates for me via my phone however when viewing the Fordpass app via an incognito tab in a browser it shows an update on 30 Sep.

TaxmanHog, very strange. Same version, different buttons. I think I'll just wait and see if it fixes itself.

Last week I had issues with the Samsung Watch 4 applet not working with this version of Ford Pass.

I uninstalled the watch applet, then reinstalled it, that repaired the malfunction.

I have the Fordpass app 5.28 on Android 16 and my view is different than that, my target charge is a slider and it works as designed I guess. When I adjust that slider sometimes I have to hold my finger on the target charge % for a second or it'll slide back where it was, sometimes it over shoots and goes higher when I let off it, sometimes it lands lower.

Edit: Even when actively charging, I can adjust that % up or down, if I adjust it below the current %, charging stops.

Do you have a location based charging scheme stored as Home or another label?
If not, that might be why you don't have the "Target Charge" button like I do when not plugged in.

My slider is only visible under the scheme I have saved, it's also visible if I'm plugged into the EVSE and waiting to start charging or actively charging.

Nope, nothing of the sort. No idea how to set a location based scheme.

Edit: Found the location based scheme setting and no it is not set. What value or advantage does it make to have location scheme?

It would allow you to set a limited SOC ie. a value less than 100%

It would allow you a specific time frame (two per day) and versions for weekend and weekday when your truck would actually charge after plugging into the EVSE.

Hmm, well I can adjust that slider to any % of charge I want now, even while it's still charging.

As for time, I plug it in when I want to charge it, usually before bed. Our power company doesn't give a discount rate during off peak times so it's useless to worry about timing.

That's good for your use case, this Q&A hopefully helps others where it's relevant, especially TOU conditions.

I can definitely see an advantage for those with variable rates.

Anyone's FordPass not loading data this morning? Laggier than usual and I'm on v5.28.0. Will not load the climate or SOC details. Tried logging out, clear cache/data. Might try reinstalling.
