Great idea and will get that added sometime soon. Full real-time updating of most components on the service is planned for later this year to provide much more of a traditional mobile app experience (prior to apps being released). Auto-updating is something that most services lack (including...

We typically always receive updates prior to TeslaFi based on their infrastructure. We actually did detect it prior to their platform. https://twitter.com/teslascope/status/1270530685560897536 (6:38 PM) https://twitter.com/teslafi/status/1270533648954150915 (6:50 PM) Just by a small margin...

While not as documented, the release notes also support every language that Tesla provides release notes for to allow for better inclusiveness. Adding a vehicle isn't necessary and simply setting your language on the service will automatically display the release notes in that language. But...

Teslascope doesn't send any form of automated emails in any manner (yet), nor do I personally send emails out without a prior support email being sent. It seems that you emailed my personal email, which further is confusing. I would double check where this email came from to make sure it wasn't...

Drive Efficiency is determined by the following formula: ($distance / $rangeUsed) * 100 We take the true distance, determined by the change in the odometer from start to finish, and divide that by the range that the vehicle reported as using. If you actually drove 25 miles, but your car reported...

As @CMc1 kindly shared, we're working on ways to allow for EAP individuals to be able to continue using Teslascope and be more mindful of Tesla's NDAs. We were given some casual insight by a Tesla employee that the main concern with third parties (in regard to EAP) was the reporting of early...

Thank you for this great feedback! I actually soft released a small page that shows the impacts of COVID on driving habits. You can view it here: COVID-19 | Teslascope The Tesla API, unfortunately, does not accurately let services know anymore whether or not the HW is 2.5 or 3, so we just use...

Thank you!

The ability to add locations should hopefully be complete and added in the following month. You can deactivate your account via Account Settings; once deactivated the account and all data is automatically deleted after 30 days. If you'd like it deleted immediately, deactivate it and then send...

As someone who has attended a few hacking/infosec conventions, I get that understanding! Tesla has a pretty lovely bug bounty program, so I'm usually pretty confident in their ability to keep vehicles and their owners safe. From a software standpoint, there's no risk of a vehicle being...

@Garlan Garner Your concerns are valid, but you also show that you have a great misunderstanding in regard to the Tesla APIs. Any third party service uses the same endpoints as the official Tesla mobile app and is given no special access beyond that. As all requests are handled by Tesla's...

With Restful mode, practically zero to none. In the above screenshot, my vehicle hasn't updated in 14 hours which means that no polling has occured and the vehicle is still fast asleep, so it's not experienced any vampire drain. If I were to go downstairs and open the door, it would wake up...

The vehicle is only polled every minute if it is actively driving or charging (based on the prior minute's vehicle states). If the car was previously charging and it now is "Completed" or otherwise the cord is unplugged, that update gets logged. The following minute, since the previous update...

Technically, yes. While its use does not result in the immediate disqualification of the Early Access Program (as you are not bound by the NDA until accepting the program), the continued use of any third party applications can result in you being kicked out of the program. There were two...

With Restful Sleep, it will stop polling if the vehicle's state goes from online to asleep. In normal circumstances, the vehicle will fall asleep if it isn't interacted with during the 15 minute polling period. This can take longer (and thus prevent sleeping because of a few scenarios such as)...
