Well, if the Volkswagen app allows you to do this, then I can probably choose another capability that your Volkswagen app can show you instead.
So,
Hello.
In the native Volkswagen app, I can:
Change charging power from 5A to MAX, current is 13A.
I can toggle charging on/off.
Thanks!
This app is great, works perfectly with my e-golf! One question: I donât see the start/stop charging option yet, is it still in testing? Would really love to have this functionality.
Status code 5xx means Volkswagen is undergoing maintenance or experiencing an overload. It has nothing to do with the app update, as the section where I submit requests to Volkswagen remains unchanged 
Itâs probably just a matter of patience until they get their systems up and running again!
Hi. Thanks for making this app, I have missed the connection to my car since the VW-connect app was depreciated. I have started to migrate my flows to this new app, but there are some useful cards/tags that is missing from the old app. For ex:
Is that possible to add (maybe Martijnpoppen can guide you if you cannot âfindâ them)
Hi, please post any feature requests here, thanks!
Also, I donât think Iâm going to add is vehicle home, since thatâs an opinion based on what you consider home. You can use the distance from home to determine if you consider your vehicle home. For me, thatâd be always within 20m of the Homey, but for someone in a narrow street in Amsterdam with limited parking space, home might be within 500m of the Homey. But within 500m for me can also be at my parents place. So you can implement your own comparison logic based on the meters from home.
Ok thanks, but I canât find the meters from home capabilities in my ID4 GTX-23 with SW3.x

Thatâs strange⊠I think some capabilities did not register properly. It should work for the ID.4. Can you try to reboot the app to trigger the capability registration again?
Settings > Apps > Volkswagen > App settings > Reboot app
Just tried to reboot the app, but I canât find the capability unfortenantely. Iâm not sure if it would help to reinstall the device, but I would like to avoid that since it will mess up my flows.
For info, on the old VW-connect device, I can see the latitude and longitud capabilities, so the car did have them before (they just donât update anymore in that app, since it is depreciated).
I just tried change the language to english and rebooted the Homey, and now the distance from home capability showed up. So I tried to change back to Swedish to see if the language was the problem, but it was still there. So I cannot say what he fix was, because I tried reboot the Homey yesterday without changing language, without any success.
Anyway, it is solved and thanks for making this excellent app!
Good to hear!
Tomorrow, I finally have a full day to fix some of these issues. Iâll try to link this to the repair function so you can retrigger the initialise function. I think the issue is that if the car didnât provide the information when the app/homey boots, itâll never try to re-initialise these missing capabilities 
Iâm also going to add an optional feature in the settings to start logging so when you create a diagnostics report, you can share the output of your car so I can better understand why these seemingly random issues pop up.
Hi Bloemendaal, congratulations with this app, great work.
I have a Skoda Elroq and noticed the app uses the same âVAGâ network/server, but I cannot connect with your app.
I would love to work together on trying to modify and maintaining an app for Skoda, let me know if you are ok with that. (I published my first app today 
while I bought my Homey Pro 1 month ago)
Is it possible to add the state âmoving/not movingâ?
I want to use that for the check if the car is locked or not when itâs parked.
Hi,
thanx for making the app. I was looking for this when Martijn Poppen stopped the development of the other app. I have an id 4 and the app works great. I also was looking for a variable for when the car is parked. I only found âvehicle activeâ. I assume that it means ignition on/off?
Hi everyone! Hereâs a little update:
Currently in testing:
max_charging_current capability. If your vehicle only supports the maximum and reduced options, itâll show you 16A or 6A.Next up:
is_parked capability based on the code of Martijns app as @Raymond and @Fiek requested. After the features currently on testing are released, Iâll push this feature to testing. Because of the big refactor I want to make sure everything still works as expected before pushing this release to everyone, but feel free to review and install the app in advance based on this branch. I expect to release it somewhere after Christmas.Lastly, @Rob_Hagemann and I started talking about the Skoda app. Somewhere after Christmas weâll have our first call/attempt to get this working! 
Merry Christmas everyone! 
@Bloemendaal Do you have plans for creating a connection with Cupra cars?
@Fiek, where do you see âvehicle activeâ?
Hi Jasper!
I only want to publish and maintain high quality apps. Since I donât own a Cupra car, I cannot test my app and thus not guarantee that high standard. So unless youâre a developer willing to maintain a modified version of the Volkswagen app, Iâm afraid I canât help you.
