Advanced Charger Filters of Premium function don't act as I expected

I have purchased a premium account specifically because I travel with a trailer quite often. What do I need for longer trailer route planning? Specifically three things: Being able to strictly choose routes where I dont have to disconnect the trailer to charge. The best option is a drive through charger, like Fastned has most of the time. However, if i configure a trailer option to my car nothing really happens in the planning. The alternative is then to a) select preffered networks manually. However, this is not a strict selection: often you still get other networks. I would like to be able to select one network as a must go! b) use the option “trailer friendly”. I would expect this option to be automatically selected when I configure a small trailer with my car. I dont this works this way, however. And - trailer friendly is a scale, not a YES/NO option. So I basically dont know for sure its a drive through. Others in this forum have suggested to create a boolean “drive through” which I really, really like. I would for sure have me not abandon the Premium function. Being able to schedule drive range more specifically to trailer circumstances. Nothing changes however, in the Kwh consumption index when I configure a trailer. And the range expected is still the same. For sure or hopefully this will change after some trailer drives due to the automated benchmarking, but still I would like to be able to get better predictions at the start already. I need to be able to be flexible in my planning - when i charge earlier or later than planned or charge more KwH’s than expected this needs to be change directly in my planning. I dont think this happens. And then last of all: I cannot show both my time / distance to the first charging stop as well as the time / distance to the final destination in my Apple Carplay screen. And thats very, very annoying. For all issues mentioned - I have seen other request which I have upvoted. So please consider this summary as input from a trailer driver who just needs a bit more functionality to stick with the premium version of ABRP.

Free app version need to connect to Apple Pay

The whole point of this app is to have a better route planned for trips with an electric vehicle. Since you are offering a free version to have the most important thing not available to connect to Apple Play just doesn’t seem right. You might as well keep the whole thing as a paid application because looking at the phone while driving is not something a safe driver wants to do.

Enode/ABRP connection to BYD Sealion 7

I’ve connected my BYD Sealion 7 to Enode through ABRP with a premium subscription. I’ve noticed that even when the car is turned off, this connection drains the car’s battery (about –1% every 4–5 hours). It would be useful if ABRP had a “Pause sync with Enode” button, so that when we don’t need Enode, it doesn’t drain the car’s battery. Right now, the only option is to disconnect Enode completely, but then we have to repeat the whole process to reconnect it later

Road closed in abrp but its open and free

For weeks now, every route planning attempt from my home in Italy (39021 Latsch) heading south or east has shown a detour to the west! The road to Bolzano (39100) is open and freely passable. It's a major thoroughfare! Here's an example from Latsch to Bolzano: https://abetterrouteplanner.com/?plan_uuid=2-699be8e1-6ae5752dde18d2a38aba084e Using the app like this is pointless for me if all routes from my home are affected.

Feedback

For alternative route functionality ABRP shows the options without the DC capacity(eg 300kw) and the available/total number of DC stations. These are only avialable after the driver made his choice. You definately want to know this info upfront so you can make the right choice. Also it is too much text, much better would be to show the red/green pie diagram of the main screen.

Temperature and weight settings missing

After the last update it's not possible anymore to set the vehicle temperature on start of the route (to determine if the car was preheated or not) and it's also not possible anymore to select extra weight (f.e 1 or 5 persons in the car) In general all the good detailed settings are suddenly gone which made abrp great. If it stays like it is now after the update I have to cancel my subscription… Because exactly those settings made the difference to the normal route planners

Closed Road

ABRP plans my route via Silvretta Hochalpenpass. This route is every winter closed for several months. I know this, but it's bad for users who don't know. They drive 25 km into a dead end and back again. Shouldn't ABRP automatically take this into account when planning routes (even in the free version)? Or is this a setting in the configuration?

Illogical routing issues.

Hi ABRP Team, I would like to provide feedback regarding a very inefficient and illogical routing issue I encountered while planning a trip from Ankara to Zonguldak, Turkey. Even though I set my starting battery state of charge (SoC) to 100%, the app suggests three alternatives, and the third one is particularly problematic. It directs me to drive all the way to Bolu and then turn back towards Zonguldak, adding an extra 50 minutes to the journey. This route makes no sense geographically or logistically, especially since the car has more than enough charge to take more direct routes. While the first route is fine and the second one via Gerede is acceptable (despite a 15-minute delay), the third option is completely redundant. It seems like the routing algorithm is prioritizing certain chargers or points of interest in a way that ignores basic logic and time efficiency. I hope you can look into your routing parameters for this region to prevent such "back-and-forth" suggestions in the future. It is just one example. I'm dealing with such problems a lot so I make my planning with Google maps and use abrp only to visualize chargers around . Best regards.

Kia EV9 CarPlay map is too zoomed in

I'm not sure how the scaling works but the map is way too zoomed in for my taste (using 2D with North). And unfortunately there is no scaling/resolution setting in the app itself. Furthermore, the zooming resets when driving. I like the Kia onboard navigation and Waze zoom levels way better. Perhaps it is since ABRP doesn’t handle the widescreen properly? If needed I can take some pictures to show the difference. I’ll do this once I'm on the road as to not show my home address.
