I can see how this might be useful for people on Agile, but on IOG not so much.
The only times I can see it being used on IOG might be power-ups, "free" sessions or DFS sessions, although I understand even they may nit be worth bothering with this year.
Anyway, I'm happy to go with the majority.
Query about Quick Schedule on the WW Home page

Simplistically usually wins. Separate the two. Rather than have the dropdown have
Quick Options:
Charge 30 mins 60 mins
Discharge 30 mins 60 mins
possibly where the minutes are the buttons

MrMessy We're on Octopus Flux. Although I have WW export rules set for the 4-7pm window, if they don't go off because they haven't met the threshold (eg I usually don't want to export much if the following day is due to be extremely poor weather), I might decide I DO want to export for a little while after all, especially if I'll be cooking dinner on the gas hob and not using electricity. Then the timed Export is really useful as a quick fire-and-forget. I know from experience that my system exports at a rate of 10% of the battery per half an hour, so I can easily calculate how long I want to set a timed Export for.
I haven't used this feature, yet. But I will. But for me, it will be Charge, rather than Discharge/Export. But I can go with two options so that it is easier to pick the correct one visually. Majority rules and all that
That is a much better option
JayC I agree. I like your original suggestion of separating the two. This would avoid confusion and mistakes when in a hurry or tired [or loopy from meds like I am right now]. I'd also like them to be colour-coded.
I have some health challenges that cause me issues that most people wouldn't think of. Colour-coding and reliable and clear placement of things (ie avoiding dynamic page changes and subtle switches) would be of help. That's why I keep accidentally using timed Charge, when I actually wanted timed Discharge, like I mentioned in my original post that opened this thread.
miffy Would you be prepared to provide your view on how useful this guide is?

Being on Agile I use the discharge option (I would normaly select an Agile slot to charge). I do however like the optins of different time intervals and would find just 30 or 60 too restrictive. The current selection is about right for me. Maybe swap the charge / discharge options over?
