Seeking advice on charge programming

[Newguy]

I am the happy owner of a new 2025 4S. With help and advice from the dealer, through the PCM, my car is programmed to charge on my Porsche Wall Charger Connect from midnight to 7:00 am, and to pre-condition the car for 7:00 am departure. That works like a charm on days when I plug in and charge overnight and use the car after 7:00 am, but many days I am able to take advantage of a wonderful alternative way to commute (by bike and ferry) and do not need to charge at night. As a result, I don’t plug the car into the charger and don’t drive it the following day, but the pre-conditioning runs anyway. Is there any way to adjust the program to pre-condition only when the car is plugged in and charging? Thanks for any suggestions.

there is no way to accomplish what you are requesting to my knowledge - the car's timer/preconditioning software does not support "conditional" pre-conditioning. You can disable pre-conditioning in the app remotely is the best solution.
