App improvements (overall I/everyone love the app - but think a few things could be added):
- Add horn "chirp". The car does a horn "chirp" on locking. Why is only the "blast" tone on the app? Let's have more choice!
- "Auto vent" windows at safe (home) locations above say 35C interior
- Stop "window vent" if it starts raining / night-time, ie. don't vent 6pm - 10am (car has rain sensing, people might forget, if it's raining it's usually not sunny)
- Vent window choice (eg. just driver side). My car parks against a hedge and I don't want to display "all" my windows are open.
- Vent "bit / lot " - I'd also like to be able to have a 2 inch vs 9 inch type gap.
- Change charge AMPS from the phone. I charge off solar on a granny cable. House has 7kw panels but solar can vary between 1 and 5kw depending on conditions. When it's sunny I want to be able to set AMPS to 10 (2.4kW "granny" charging). When it goes cloudy (or I just want to divert more to house battery / hot water) I want to lower it to 5-10. Currently I have to enter the car to change it. Why is this not on the app?
Car interface:
- "Stats for geeks" - Youtube offers this. Could be a cut-down interface of the "OSB" full features (see Bjorn Nyland youtube vids for the 200+ things this displays). eg. Front/rear stator temperature. Battery temp. Interior temp. Pump flow rates. Max power. Max regen... etc... I imagine they wouldn't want all of the settings as it might lead to too many "dumb" service calls. "Why is my nominal % not 72kwh".
- "Miles + %" at same time option. Why not Tesla?
- Interior temperature. This is ONLY on the app. Why can't we display it in somewhere?
- Right-hand-drive models have some "close" X symbol on the wrong (passenger side) vs Left-hand-drive cars where some are on the driver-side. Please fix!!!
- Make AC + temp an option for the right-hand-scroll wheel please. In the UK we have lots of clouds/sun so want to adjust temp without trying to work a touch-screen!
- Way to keep music playing when car door is closed. I do like the way the volume reduces when the door is open. But when working on the car on the drive I wanted to play music - but couldn't!
- The USB music player can't read Japanese text / file names (no global ASCII)? I have Joe Hisaishi Ghibli soundtracks and some songs display as "????????"
Mini-rant The USB-C connector port was a stupid change! 1st. 2 ports in the glove compartment would be better. Dashcam + USB-Music. Seeing as it's in this compartment. It sticks out and looks incredibly weak vs a "normal" USB connector (see photo below). Most phones come with a USB-C end on the phone and a USB "normal" end on the charge end - so why on Earth did you change it to this small plug Tesla! I now have a USB memory stick that looks like it's going to snap whenever I put anything in that drawer. Tesla it should be nearer each edge.
Oh - and I don't have/want a wireless phone! Can I not have a hole in the bottom middle of the phone cradle to thread a USB cable through please!
Siri / Android-auto please!
