I have a PodPoint - on latest firmware with the PodPoint scheduling added and a MY21 4s with the latest software updates applied - the porsche timer/profiles work ok for me.Hi, yes. Similar issues. Also have podpoint. For 4 months I’ve been charging 1230-0430 just using a profile. Had software update now I can’t get it to work.
See my thread here

My car will start charging but completely ignores the time slots depending on what soc. what is your specific issue?
If your using the pod point timer it will show as charging error on the Porsche app but will start charging at the time specified on the podpoint app. I have found for some reason this is corrupting my smart meter electric reading though but that’s another topic. If using the pp timer disable all the Porsche timer/profiles.
My conclusion. Porsche timer/profiles won’t work with podpoint ( although did pre update). I’m thinking aboit asking Porsche but figure they will just say doesn’t work with podpoint.
Here is what I have setup if it helps.
I don't use any of the PodPoint scheduling - nothing is setup on the charger/podpoint app.
I have a HOME location based profile minimum charge set to 50% i.e. I always want to have some decent immediate charge in the bank if I do come home with less than 50% but that is configurable down to 25%. I have set preferred charging times as 12:30AM - 4:30AM.
I then have a Timer set daily with departure time set for 4:30AM and Target Charge of 85% - I currently don't use any pre-heat settings.
That's it, works fine and gets me my Octopus Go cheap 12:30 - 04:30 rate and starts and finishes exactly on time with a 85% charge.
