Why does the Charging Mode change in the My BMW App during a BMW ChargeForward smart charging session?

To start a smart charging session, the Charging Mode in the vehicle or My BMW App must be set to "Charge Immediately." While optimizing, ChargeForward will update charging times in the My BMW App. You will not be able to make changes to these settings during optimization.  Your vehicle will charge in times according to the ChargeForward Charge Plan and will be charged to your target State of Charge (SOC) by your next departure time set.
