Issues with android 15 ? Since updating my Google pixel 6 from android 14 to 15 I can no longer set the hours and minutes when I try to "charge now" Tried the app on a Samsung phone running android 14 & it's fine, also on a old Samsung S7 = fine. Otherwise the app is ok, it's "functional". Anyone else having this android issue since updating ?

You can not trust it to work. Sometimes it works; more often it does not. Sometimes a 'unplug/on-off-on/plug back in' works, but increasingly not. Charging at home should be easy! So bad I can't believe they sell it. Really bad.

Was a great app until two step verification arrived! This is nothing but a pain! Been told a way of disabling it but it is always there when I want to use it.
