This area I’m looking at. Are there other charging networks I should add besides these?

I'm thoroughly fed up with Apple Maps after using it on a road trip. It's way too conservative and annoying when it thinks you'll be below 20% at any point. It wanted to do the trip with 6 stops, I only needed 3. It keeps trying to add chargers or reroutes you odd ways to save 1% if it thinks you'll possibly be below 20%. And you can't set the threshold. If it listened to it, I might still be charging after driving through the boondocks. Range estimates were also way off. % on arrival goes down about 10-15% over the course of the drive to the next charger.

The above is in addition to the fact it won't route to NACS adapter Superchargers yet.
Hey Lee, wanted to share this with you.

I drive back and forth to Sac airport about 1-2 times a month. My usual route is 118 miles and Maps always has me stopping for a single charge before I reach my destination. My SOC is always around 80% before I start. I mention "usual" route because there are 3 different ones Maps will suggest all with about a 15 mile range difference. Depending on traffic, road work, accidents, Maps will choose the fastest one which is about 2 hours. With an 80% SOC I always have enough to make it to either destination and ignore charging suggestions. It seems Maps always wants me to arrive to my destination with at least 30%+ SOC. Yesterday afternoon, I left the airport with an 81% SOC, didn't get a suggested charge stop and showed a 15% SOC when I reach home. I was surprised by this and not sure if it was just a fluke or has to do with the latest Beta iOS 17.5 I recently installed. I stopped once at Starbucks for a coffee and ended up getting home a little over 2 hours later with a 19% SOC. I won't be going back again for a few weeks but anxious to see what will happen.

That's good news if they seemingly relaxed the arrival SoC requirements somewhat. I don't use beta iOS, so I'll have to wait for general release to check it out.
