I have noted that the app now has a Max Soc parameters in its Mode Scheduler, which make me think if there is a recommended maximum SOC to improve the battery lifetime?
EV car owner typically maintain their batteries between 10/20% and 80/90%, leaving 100% only to long drives. Should we do the same for our Fox home batteries?

LFP batteries are much more robust than the typical Li-ion battery that you find in an EV and are much more durable.
Fox ESS limit the minimum SoC at 10% which gives a depth of discharge of 90% and as long as you don’t charge them at extreme temperatures they can be safely used with the full 90% of their capacity repeatedly.
Just to mention you will need the latest firmware for the MaxSoC option you see in the scheduler to work
