Imagine it’s a Monday morning. You’re rushing out the door, coffee in hand, and you’re hoping that your EV is charged and ready to go.

With Manual Scheduling in the Powerverse App, you can be confident that it’s ready – exactly when you need it.

Powerverse lets drivers set precise charging times that fit their lifestyle, so they stay in control of when charging happens. 

That might mean overnight during cheaper off-peak hours, in the afternoon when solar panels are generating energy, or any window that works for them.

This feature is all about giving people visible, predictable control.

Why it matters

Charging an EV isn’t one-size-fits all. Some drivers prefer letting AI manage it using tools like Intelligent Scheduling, while others want to see exactly what’s happening.

Manual Scheduling meets both needs. It solves a common frustration: waiting for a car that isn’t ready, or not knowing why charging didn’t happen when expected.

It also helps customers charge at the times that are the most convenient to them, putting them squarely in control of their energy use.

How it works

Setting a manual schedule is simple. Drivers open the Powerverse app, navigate to ‘Charging Mode,’ choose ‘Manual Scheduling,’ and then set start and end times.

For those on time-of-use tariffs, the app can even highlight cheaper windows for charging. 

Users then see exactly when charging will take place, giving them certainty without adding complexity.

Benefits for businesses

• Increase sales appeal: Homes and chargers with visible, flexible features show value to buyers, making properties and products easier to sell. 
• Reduce support and operational friction: Clear scheduling controls mean fewer ‘why didn’t it charge?’ calls, saving time for customer service and installers
• Build trust and loyalty: Transparent, predictable charging experiences make customers more confident in the product and brand, improving satisfaction and long-term retention. 

Benefits to customers

• Control and certainty: Drivers decide when charging happens, so their EV is ready when they need it.
• Peace of mind: Drivers know their car will be ready, reducing frustration and increasing customer loyalty. 
• Flexibility: Customers can either let AI handle most charging or step in when certainty matters. This duel approach appeals more to users. 
• Transparency: Customers can see exactly when charging happens, reducing confusion and support requests. 

Final Thoughts

Manual Scheduling turns customer choice into a business advantage. Drivers get control and clarity, while businesses get happier, more confident customers and fewer support headaches.

Whether it’s planning around solar generation, charging overnight, or simply knowing an EV will be ready, Manual Scheduling makes charging straightforward and flexible.
