Lucid Air's Number One Software Issue?

More than likely, its a lack of understanding on my part. But my assumption is that the wallet key is for valet use, and if that's the case, then why do I need to give them my code? I would imagine the simpler idea would be that if there is no authorized phone or key fob in the car, and only the wallet key, then the car automatically goes into valet mode (lock gloevebox/frunk/trunk access, and maybe limit speed). In case my phone dies, and I have my wallet key, then I can input my code to get access to glovebox/frunk/trunk.

you can tap the card on the top pillar by the mic and it will enable the car to drive.

Scheduled Charging : I had to dumb down my ChargePoint and turn the Charge Point scheduler totally off in order for my Air to have Schedule'd charging work.. My Charging rates are good between 12am and 3pm. While the car will start charging 100% fine and onetime at 12am. What I would like (better) is if it also had an "end time" window (like Charge point has where I simply enter my Utility rate plan and the software figures the rest out, sets up my schedule etc). The reason an "end time" is nice is it creates an "off peak charging window". In other words, if I plug in at 1pm in the afternoon my rates are still great, but the Lucid charging software will not start until 12am that night.. If I had the option for an "end time" the charging would immediately charge at 1pm, and then shut off at 3pm and then restart at 12am.. This is why the charge point software is better, but it does not work with the Lucicd because the Lucid is the "master" when it comes to scheduled charging, until there is a software update (hopefully) to update the scheduled charging features , or allow the charge point software to take over as the Master like my other EV does..

Love my car, would not trade it for anything else, I only mention this with the hopes of it being a future software update.

Aside from some annoying glitches in two and a half years with my AGT that resolved, I have no software issues. The car is a delight in every respect. My perspective is tolerance since it is a new vehicle so had I expected perfection with the software I would have been disappointed. For further perspective, I have yet to experience software applications anywhere that are perfect. Lucid has done an admirable job with OTAs to correct shortfalls.
