Charging Plan
Sorry if this is posted somewhere but searching through I couldn't seem to find anything. Can you set the car to charge from a certain time only? Eg. I want to start charging at 11pm when it's the cheapest rate but it doesn't appear you can do this. The app just asks when you're leaving and I thought I found a schedule in the MMI but when plugged in at 7pm it started charging immediately.

Our e-tron doesn't support setting a start charging time, only support charge to set target SoC by leave time.
There are two ways to use the features
WIthout the app, once you are parked, Press Start/Stop to turn off the car. and on the MMI. click on the schedule to make sure it turn "RED" . if the schedule doesn't appear you will have to go enable those schedules ( Toggle the appropriate ones to ON)
With the app. assuming the charging cable is plugged in and Already charging. in the App. Click Charging Planning -> Timer -> set and toggle one or more to ON -> Send to Vehicle. Then Enable Timer Mode, in the previous screen.
With a JuiceBox Pro, you can set the start charing time ; as well as smart feature where eMotoWerks know the best time to charge, base on real-time supply and demand data from the Power Plants

Thanks for the clarification. I was trying to avoid buying the Jb Pro but I’m not a fan of the Audi charger.
a) they don’t provide a mounting bracket
b) it always turns on at 50% even though it’s plugged into a 240v 50amp outlet
c) the myAudi app isn’t the friendliest of apps and very limited on what you can do
Looks like I’ll be off to buy the Jb. Annoyingly, the landlord has stated if I mount anything to the wall in the garage then it’s considered part of the dwelling and must remain when I leave so I’m effectively giving him a house that is now EV ready.l which is why I was reluctant to buy the Jb. The Audi charger is just on the floor at the moment.

So technically only that small approx. 6 in by 1 in piece of metal is mounted on the wall :-)

Lol! To be fair, I’m grateful that the landlord let me install the power outlet even though it was at my expense he could’ve easily said no. I’m thinking I’ll just leave the bracket behind and treat it as a hook if he ever pushes upon it. At the end of the day he got a free charging outlet plug installed.
