Ford app v6.0.0 FKA Ford Pass, IOS & Android

[TaxmanHog]

One bug I have noticed is that you need to view the Vehicle home tab, first to refresh the active session data on the Energy tab, previous v5.x.x this data would refresh every few seconds/minutes

I am very disappointed. In order to see the kwh charged you have to close the app and reopen it. The scheduling worked at first but now it completely ignored it and did not charge my truck last night. I wake up early to take a small trip only to find my truck never got charged last night so I have to take my ICE. I am on Time Of Use Electric service and I depend on it charging during taht time. I just went through this a few rev's ago having to re-enter my schedule because of that change. Why do these programmers rewrite what took years to work out the bugs to make it a little tiny bit faster only to screw up all the things that got worked out in the past. They fix it then break it again and again.

I've resorted to only adjusting the charging schemes via SYNC in the truck, it's the most reliable method, using FP to adjust the schedule is hit or miss lately.

I guess all these features that are missing since the refresh will be added back and that will be our big reveal…..break something then fix it and claim their victory.

Show us the data screen you're drawing such a conclusion!!!!

There is a couple of metrics on the active and final charging screen in FP that are grossly off, ie. the number of miles added is often way out of spec, if that' is how you are determining the improvement, don't trust it.

It ain't anything special, it's the fact that precooling the cabin actually works off AC now and how I drive to work
Apparently the initial startup uses 2.9 kw for whatever the truck runs, presumably most of that is climate control. Especially since it was still 2.1 on the way back home.

An easy way to do that in the app would be to simply highlight the corresponding padlock icon on the main screen of the app. I.e. highlight the locked padlock icon if the truck is locked.

App would have to query the truck periodically do do it. User could change the lock status manually in the truck which would get the app out of sync. This is why the status is not shown unless an explicit action is taken in the app.

Good point. Or, you could have the user pull down to refresh to see the status. Then remove the status after 30 seconds until the user either locks/unlocks or refreshes again.
