Hot water scheduler increments

Does anyone know if there is a way to change the increment timings to less than 30 minutes? So for example I could boost or set a hot water schedule for 10 minutes rather than the full 30 minutes. I have posted before a couple of years ago but it seems the thread was locked and no resolution or interest from Google? Any joy anyone?

Increments of 10 or 15 minutes would be really useful as I had this with my previous smart thermostat the 'Cosy' system. I was also able to use Alexa to turn the hot water on and off. With Nest you can only set the heating. Cosy was a much earlier smart thermostat so it is disappointing to have to loose 2 great features on a newer thermostat. Just needs a few lines of code adding surely?
