    M3 - Nothing turning on

    So I've had the Model 3 since the middle of July and haven't had any issues besides some crazy battery draining. Anyway, this past Sunday (September 23) I got in the car with my keycard (my phone doesnt have the best service at my apartment) and once I got in NOTHING was turning on. The app...

    Unable to access app... Should I be concerned?

    So I reserved my Model 3 in December '17 and ordered on August 9th (edited order on the 23rd). I have read in multiple threads that those with a Model 3 order should have access to the Tesla app; for their referral code, support videos, etc. My order screen also says to download the app for my...

    I'm Thinking About Making Another Mobile App

    A few weeks ago, my car locked with my phone inside and my key dead. I didn't know about the secret location between the B pillars as a way to unlock the car but it made me think that I wish the Tesla app had a watch component. Being a software engineer, I thought — Maybe I can make an app...

    “Hey Siri”

    Do you think you could command Siri or other assistant to do things like open your trunk or unlock your door if your hands are full? Kind of like I command it to turn on my lights in my home. Haven’t gotten my car yet so I can’t try, delivery and vin were just assigned yesterday!

    What exactly does "speed limit mode" do?

    As of firmware update 2018.24.1 (and mobile app version 3.4.1) we now have a "speed limit mode" as a safety feature. So I made a short video about how it works and what exactly it does?

    climate turning on (I'm not in car) - we did not initiate

    GREETINGS! (first post - I did do a quick scan with search function.) I am using a beta version of Stats (iOS maadotaa / QuickTesla) and I have the push notifications to alert me if/when the Climate turns on and I'm not in the car. A few times over the past week (I've been beta testing since...

    Telsa App not opening trunk or frunk

    I cannot get my iPhone Tesla app to open the trunk or the frunk. Both respond to fob operations and to screen operations, but not to the app. Any suggestions?

    Tesla App - Add Trunk Open to first screen

    When opening the Tesla App, I have three options across the top - HVAC, Frunk, and Lock/Unlock. I’d much prefer to have Trunk there than Frunk. Ideally add it as a 4th option. Or allow us to customize what we want as top options. As is, to open the trunk, I have to hit Controls then the...

    Tesla mobile app data usage

    Hi, Since I’ve had my Tesla iPhone app, my monthly mobile data usage has rocketed. I’m not sure if it’s due to the app or not, as I can’t see mobile data stats on individual apps. The app does receive data constantly while open, at least. Has anyone noticed increased data use? Can anyone with...

    App: Connection error - still down?

    So, is anyone else still getting an unknown error with the app? It started with a notification last evening that some maintenance was being done. Just checked at 7am this morning and I'm still unable to use the app.

    Climate always on or precondition?

    Here's a question for the Tesla family: snowy day, 32° F out, expecting 3-5 inches, at work for 8 hours with no covered parking. I leave with 100% and get to work with 80% SOC. Do I : 1. Leave the always on climate at 65 or so to prevent build up of snow on the windows and keep the car...

    Spouse/partner multiple Tesla app access

    My wife and I are preparing to purchase our second Tesla. My question is for those who have multiple Tesla's: both will be in my name financially, do I create her a "my Tesla" account or do I just use mine and have her logged in on her phone? It is there a setting other than swiping back and...

    App Connectivity Issues

    Any current owners also have difficulty connecting via the app? Sometimes it takes multiple refreshes to even grab a connection before "Vehicle Connection Error" pops up. Seems like the LTE connection could use a software update or two.

    Weirdness in the app...

    Hello, This is such a trivial thing, but looked at the Tesla app today and found my 2017 facelift Model S had suddenly become a nose-coned variety! Anyone ever had anything similar?

    Tesla app works on 2 ghz but not 5 ghz wifi

    I know this makes no sense but after a lot of trouble shooting I have found the following. My model X is connected to my home wifi on the 2 ghz band on my router. I have an android cell phone and an android pad both with slightly different versions of the android OS. They will both connect to...

    App won't connect to car

    Hi all - Fairly new MS owner here... Often when I use the (iOS) app to control the car, it says it's not connected. It's especially bad at home, which is odd, since both app and car should have access to house wifi (I have a range extender right above the garage/driveway, so should get great...

    Heated seats from the App?

    First cool morning since I received my X this summer. My wife asked me to heat the seats before we went for our Sunday Starbucks run and to my dismay, I can't find anything on the app? Is this not an option or am I just doing it wrong? If it's not on there, I mean common Elon! I know it's...

    BMW's Connected+ access to onboard cameras

    Here's an article with a few interesting features that I hope Tesla will integrate into their cars. BMW Connected+ Brings Remote 3D Security Cam, Microsoft Email Integration, and More I certainly like the idea of being able to access the cameras, perhaps a step up would be to tie it into the...

    Can't use remote climate control when battery is below 20%

    I wanted to cool down my car before I got in (as you can see the interior was 99°) but the app wouldn't allow me to. I had plenty of charge to get home but wanted to cool things down for the little one. He refused to get in and asked for the A/C immediately. I'd love to have an override for this...

    So, the other day, I was at the office, around 10 AM and got this cool notifications telling me that the new software was already download to the car and it was ready to update it. Unfortunately I had a busy day so I couldn't go to the car and execute the update. As you know usually software...

    Telsa App and preconditioning car issues

    There are two ways to precondition a Model S that I know of: 1) Predictive mode where you set it to guess 2) Turn on the HVAC via the app This is nice, but I cannot find any way to remotely activate the window defrosters/defoggers. I can warm/cool the cabin but unless it's been on a long time...

    iOS App Issue? X plugged in but app not showing it...

    I've had the small normal delay in past when opening the app to preheat car and it takes maybe 5 seconds to reflect the car is plugged in, change the graphic and allow climate control to be turned on, etc. The last few days though, it connects ok to the car but 1) doesn't show it as plugged in...

    Android App Notifications Missing? (Dec 2016)

    First, I did a quick search and didn't find anything about this, but go ahead and merge this with an existing thread if I didn't see it... ...Starting last week, I stopped getting notifications from the Android app. This coincided with a recent update of my phone (Galaxy Note 4 on Verizon, not...

    Weather App

    App Request - Start Car w/ Fingerprint

    I have found myself using my wife's new model X a lot lately via the app instead of using the key fob. It would be great if Tesla could update their app to allow customers to authorize starting the vehicle without typing in the password each time. It's a pain in the butt if I am going to a few...

    SparkMap for iOS - Out now!

    Hey all! When I got my Tesla Model S a year ago I was a bit disappointed with the lacklustre find-a-charging-station apps for iOS so I decided to make my own. I decided to use OpenChargeMap's API as it imports data from numerous other API's for countries around the world. However, being...

    Backup Camera and Homelink Remote Access from Tesla App

    I apologize in advance if this has been covered before. I was just thinking it would be nice to be able to access the backup camera remotely using the Tesla app to see if I left my garage open, and if so, to also have Homelink access to close it. It's not a feature many need or want, I'm sure...
