Reintroduce destination SOC slider on main dialogue

Feature Requests

We had that in V6 and before. I want to have the destination SOC slider again.

It’s very practical for trips where I don’t have a charger at the end and I need some juice for the next day to reach a charger.

And btw: I don’t need the image of my car. I know what it looks like. Better fill that space with something useful like the destination SOC slider.

    Thanks for the feedback. The destination SOC setting is available in the waypoint options (via the settings icon in the destination input box), which we've found to be fairly accessible for most use cases. That said, we understand it might not be as immediately visible as having it directly on the main screen. I’ll make sure that the feedback reaches the team!

      Yes. I can adjust it by opening the waypoint settings and tapping a few times and manually entering my preferred charging limit, but it used to be a global setting. I never charge my car over 80% even at home except the day of a trip, so it's a pain to have to do it for every plan. It's well known that charging above 80% is bad for the battery. Did tons of people request that function be removed?

      I used this heavily based on where I was going. (Home where I have charging or a family member without for example). I really liked having this slider option and now it’s buried 3 clicks deep (and now I have to type a number vs slide. So this legitimately takes 2-4x longer to do than it use to)

    Agreed on the SOC limit % at charger. Right now when I plan it has a fast charger (Tesla) go up to 98%. That is incredibly bad for a battery. And bring back the cargo weight setting. If I have 4 passengers and luggage that's going to change mileage.
