Hi,
Is there anyone that have or will start to develop a app for Porsche Taycan, similar as the Tesla App?

Still no app for the Porsche rechargeable vehicles? 🤔

Would like also an app for Porsche chargers, should not be too hard as there is a webpage were info can be picked up

I have the car, i have IT skills but no app building experience

you can always pay me afterwards, but try this first as a very first beta version 😉
But really, let me know this works for you and ignore the pictures and artwork, first want the code to work before spending time on that

Several builds later, it seems a stable version has been reached 😉
let me know if you have any issues or see any need for changes or items missing

Hi @idleprocess_zero,
Thanks for your work on this Porsche Connect app. I have installed it for my Macan (MY21) petrol model.
The integration is active, but it appears to be polling specifically for EV/Hybrid-related metrics. Consequently, my dashboard is showing `null` for charging and battery-related capabilities, and I am missing petrol-specific metrics such as fuel level and range.
I have attached a screenshot from the Developer Tools showing my device’s capabilities list. As you can see, all EV/Hybrid metrics are returning `null` and there are no petrol/fuel-related capabilities present.
Would it be possible to add support for petrol/combustion engine models to surface these metrics? I would be happy to assist with any testing if needed.
Best regards,
Simon

Hi @idleprocess_zero,
Following up on my previous request regarding support for petrol models, I had two additional feature requests that would really help with the user experience on Homey:
1. **Units Toggle (Miles vs. Kilometers):** Currently, the app defaults to kilometers. It would be fantastic if there were a setting in the app to toggle these units to miles for those of us in the UK.
2. **Dashboard Flexibility:** I am currently using the “Device Capabilities” app to build an Advanced Virtual Device (AVD) for my car, as this allows me to pin a custom widget to my dashboard with exactly the fields I want to see. Would it be possible to ensure the app’s data tags are fully compatible and easily accessible for use with AVDs? This would allow users to create their own custom dashboard widgets with the specific fields they care about most.
Thanks again for all your hard work on this integration!
Best regards,
Simon

Hi Simon,
Great to hear it works for you and great ideas.
Made the changes and added the dashboard changes, let me know if it works for you

Did some changing and enabling the api to verify if this is ICE or ELE so should not have that many NULL now, let me know if it works for you
Versionv4.2.16
petrol/ICE and PHEV/hybrid support — fuel level, fuel range, combined range now parsed and displayed. added ICE cars show fuel% as battery gauge. PHEV shows both EV and fuel data. Vehicle type auto-detected (Full EV / PHEV / ICE) on startup. Fuel reserve warning triggers range\_below\_threshold flow.
Let me know what else you want to add 😉

Awesome, thank you 🙏 I’ll dive in now and see what readings I get.
Could you also give the option to select miles or km?

I’ve found the info in the advanced settings, thank you 🙏
However I see Error when checking the data so don’t get to see the fuel level ?
I’ve done a wake which has changed the Error status to Online but its still not pulling the fuel level and range?

**v5.8.5 (test phase)**
- 48 capabilities
- 54 triggers
- 38 conditions
- 37 actions
- 22 widgets
**Since v4.5.0**
- Scheduled preconditioning — departure time, day picker, lead time, heated-seat zones
- Live climate feedback in the widget + max climate-temp cap (won’t overheat the cabin)
- Tibber price-aware charging + MQTT / Home Assistant discovery (not fully tested yet)
- Target SoC as a 1% slider; charging current/voltage estimated from power or fed live from your wall charger
- Monthly + yearly charged totals; cleaned-up charging history
- Parking map widget (pin + in-app Open in Maps); distance-from-home + real town name
- Home geofence, VTS/valet automation, single “not secured” alert
- Charging-profile picker (live list from the car)
- 4 new widgets — Tibber, Trips Overview (Today/Yesterday/Week/Month), Fuel (ICE/PHEV), Settings & Config
- Double-tap widget refresh (only wakes the car if data is stale); long-press forces a wake
**Key fixes**
- Less waking the car all night while parked, incl wakeup counter (12V drain)
- Distance-from-home populates; location shows the actual town instead of always “Home”
- Trip battery no longer shows a gain; parked-duration resets on drive
- Double-tap no longer zooms; app icon renders correctly
- Add your own picture / car in the widgets (so no IP infringement issues)
