Temporary override preferred charge settings?

[wavyphotons]

So I have my charge settings set up to charge at night when the electricity is cheaper.
But if I really need the car to be charged during the day once I'm surprised there's no quick 'override it for this time' button in the app and I have to change the settings to not use preferred times (and then remember to reset it next time)

Is there another easier way to just force a charge... Maybe from the car itself if not the app?

You can just click the charge to 100% button or whatever that's there to start charging immediately. You can't have it override the current settings to a set percent, though. So if you wanted to just have it start charging and still only go to 90% or whatever, you'd have to set a new charging schedule or watch it.

Ah perfect.. Thanks!

In car, just turn off charging locations and it will default to charge to 100% right away. Then turn on charge locations back on when you want to follow your schedule/limits.

I was doing the above when needed, but have now switched to over-riding in FordPass by selecting charge to 100%. This one seems to be easier for me, but both work.
