In 6.0.0 it is

Schedule -Software Updates-Release Notes.

I did not get 6.1.0 as was just posted.
Strange... I have 6.0.0 (iPhone) and don't even see the "Schedule Software Updates" option anymore. That's where I used to find it pre-6.x.

I just installed 6.1.0 and low and behold... "Software Updates" is back on the main screen!

But, and it's a big BUT, you get one and only one chance to look at the last update. If you go to the "Software Updates" page and don't look at the update when it displays it, it's GONE the next time you try to view it! I saw that it said I got an update the other day but switched to see the version number of the app before viewing the update info... when I went back to the Software Updates screen, the fact that it had been recently updated was no longer there. 😡

What a piece of ....

Not here yet but its a good sign.

Is it operable?
I didn't test it.
But the truck is parked just outside the RV, rather than at the barn. Just for you I'm going to go crank ProPower on to see how it looks in the app.

This is what it looks like with nothing happening

ProPower on, but nothing with a load

I played with increasing/decreasing the load and there was about a 3-4 second lag. Not to bad for a cloud based upload-download path for updating.

But note that the previous ProPower app feature also supported Bluetooth connectivity and the refresh was almost real-time. Enabling/disabling generator mode from the app.

I personally am waiting for even a hint of Bluetooth functionality to return. The Mach-E has Bluetooth for opening the Frunk, trunk, and raising/lowering the windows.

I’m on 6.1 on iOS but no ProPower onboard. Why do you have it?

I'm a Ford schill and my cover is now blown. Of course everyone already knew, so I suppose it's moot at this point.

You're a Prince. Thanks!

Monitoring isn't full functionality but its a long way from nothing.

Well, when I saw PPO back on the app I almost fell down. Glad I didn’t since it only displays usage. No control. 😤
But, hurray for small victories. At least they “say” additional features are expected in later releases. WTH! There were more features 4 years ago!
