This is what I’m seeing on my app. Is yours not this way?

Ford F-150 Lightning Stopping charge through app? 1765478651830-j8


If charging, it'll say stop charging, if not, it'll say start charging. iOS 6.3.0
After reading the rest of the thread, you can push the glowing button on the truck to stop charging. You can also push the handle button to stop but I'd wait until you hear the relay click before pulling, especially if it's drawing more than a kW or 2.

The J1772 standard requires power cutoff within milliseconds of pressing the latch. Power should be off before you hear anything.

It's definitely less than a second to the relay click, but it's also a perceptively long time, so I'd rather just wait. Never know if the relay fails and in what position. Well I guess you'd know it failed in open since it wouldn't charge. If tech were 100% reliable, it would take over every aspect of our day to day lives. Oh wait....
