Yep, custom mode with 100% brake regen and 0% motor regen (i.e. max coasting) is the way to go.  I also set mine up for max speed and torque.

Your experience and drive setup is the same as mine. Except that I don't use the Zero app while riding. I find looking at it distracts from my riding experience - and safety while moving, as it takes me a while to focus from distance to the display.

That's why I use an 8" tablet much higher in my line of sight. I glance down to look at the rate (w) and current (amps) which are quick to pick out since they are red under acceleration and green under braking.
I use capacity as my "fuel" gauge and don't even pay attention to the % guess-o-meter on the instrument panel.

Were you able to install the Zero app directly on your tablet, or did you have to side-load it?

I seem to remember it showing "not compatible" in the Google Play store.

I've seen this message on non-ARM CPU architecture Android... per-chance you have an Intel Atom CPU tablet?

Me?  No.  Various tablets, all ARM, always showed Not Compatible, like Zero chose to upload as "phones only".

I've got a Samsung Tab S2 and everything loaded smoothly. I have both the Zero app and the 3rd party Zero Voltage apps loaded on the tablet. switching between the 2 while on the bike usually requires closing out 1 app before opening the other one. The good thing is the Bluetooth connection isn't lost when switching. The Zero Voltage app can run in split screen mode along with maps, plugshare, or audio app running to my LE Boom 2 speaker. The factory app doesn't support split screen mode for some reason.

You have a roll-up cover for your tablet there?  Is that what I see?

Oh, gotcha!  Mine's black.  And mounts on my SP drop bar, where the police would mount a megaphone.
