Drives not being saved as drive--being saved as "charging sessions"

[Burns Fisher]

Description:

Using ABRP 4.0.44, but it has happened in earlier versions.  Live data from EVNotify. Running on iOS and using CarPlay.  I run EVNotify on the top and ABRP with CarPlay. I have "Save My Activity" enabled.

 

No drive that I take is actually saved as a drive.  I can see the routes I took on the map, but they are listed as "Charge Sessions".  Clicking on the route does not give me anything (I think it did when I actually had a drive there)

 

Type: Was this on the App.  Yes, 4.0.44

Link to Plan: If the bug is in finding a route, please copy the plan link here (found under "Share").   I don't think I can get a link, but you can look in my account today for drives to Townsend MA and back.

Replication Steps:

Fully detailed in description.

Remember, the more detail you can provide in your bug report, the faster we can fix it!

Hi @Burns Fisher,

I took a look at the data that your car has sent us and indeed your "charging stops" should be drives. We get data about your speed speed and that your vehicle is moving. However, the drives are tagged as charging stops though EVNotify and as such are flagged as stops in ABRP as well. 

I would recommend that you get in touch with the team at EVNotify, info@evnotify.de, and ask them to help you troubleshoot. It could be an issue with how EVNotify detects charging for your car model.

Thanks for checking this Sofia.  Just for curiosity, I tried today without running EVNotify at all and got no drive saved.  Maybe I'll create another car profile without live data at all and try that.  But in any case, I'll also check with the EVNotify folks.

I got a message back from EVNotify.  Apparently Giuseppe is working hard on an update with lots of fixes, but in the meantime:

Yes, the charging flag is currently reported as a static value, so always charging. That’s why even drives are getting logged and reported as a charge. But marking it as a charge enables features such as the notifications, that’s why this was the „workaround“.
