Charging planner question

[PhillyTCT4S]

So I am planning a trip from Philly to Naples FL and my Porsche app in my phone shows around 1245 miles using 8 charging stops, all of them on 350 kw Electrify America charges.
I use the option to send this to my vehicle navigation and the route shows up in my car in a minute with the same charging stops but after car navigation unit finishes its calculation it replaces my EA charges with completely different charges - Tesla, Iona even some low charges.
Do you know why is that? Is there a way to use only the route and charges that I planned on my Porsche phone application?

Once I have a route planned with charging stops, I manually enter the charging stops as favorites in the Nav PCM. That allows me to create the route in the nav system and get an estimate of driving and charging times.

But while driving the trip I don't activate the entire route with all charging stops in the nav system.

I drive the route one segment at a time, by selecting the first charging stop from favorites as the first destination, and once that stop is completed, selecting the 2nd charging stop as the next destination, and so on.

The other thing I do is ensure I have enough range to make it to one charging stop past the next planned one, just in case the next planned charging site is not working, congested, or very slow.

Good luck.

Please do not rely on EA exclusively. EA is improving but still not reliable enough, nor necessarily spaced where you might want.

One big question is do you have the 150kW OBC? If so having access to Tesla superchargers is a game changer. I often do round trips from Jacksonville, FL to Lancaster, PA. I just completed a round trip and used EA only once, and only because I knew the chargers were working and the stop had excellent pit stop options. I primarily use Tesla on road trips because they just work (sign up for charging membership and the cost is quite reasonable). GM/Flying J in a travel center right off the highway or Tesla and MB at a Buc-ee's versus EA a ways off your route in a Walmart? Easy choice.

To each their own, but I mostly ignore the car's charge planning. ABRP and PlugShare will let you pick where and when you want to stop. To answer what you asked, every route I have ever sent to the car from the phone winds up getting changed by the car.

And @Tooney's method is spot on.

Thanks guys. We have Tesla in the family too so using Tesla superchargers is not an issue, used it allot already. Strange that car is changing the route charges but I guess its a Porsche.
Srill debating what car to take. I drive almost 100% using self driving when I takes wife's Y and its a game changer on long trips especially but this time I wanted to take my Cross Turismo just need to figure out what application to use for my road/charging planning.

No debate on which car to take. Porsche wins. Loved my Model S (no FSD) but my departed Porsche and current Audi e-tron GT are better road warriors. Innodrive (if you have it) works just fine to allow you to play with the MMI or open a bottle of water. The rest of the time it's more rewarding to drive rather than be driven. And charging on my recent trip was honestly as easy as getting gasoline.
