They can easily add 2 more icons by doing away with the recent app icon, and using a swipe up gesture to replace the 3 dots icon.
Everytime you turn on/off auto climate, auto seat heaters turn on/off simultaneously. I hate this feature.
I know tesla screwed me (others) over with FSD but it does not mean they know the temperature my buttocks like
I like lower cabin temperature but high seat heater.
Forgive me for straying off topic, but this triggered a memory.
I was home in Tennessee for the summer of '78 after my freshman year in college. Along with all my hometown friends, we had great difficulty getting summer jobs in a weak economy. We finally signed up as the gopher crew to set up a big new discount store in the next town, and it was a lot of heavy work.
We'd usually go to a little sandwich place in the shopping center on our lunch break, and then my best friend would insist that we sit for a while in the hot car (his dad's '63 Chevy Biscayne or my dad's very similar '63 Belair depending on who drove that day). There was definitely no Cabin Overheat Protection in the hot and humid southern summer, but he loved it. One of us would take the front bench and one the back. He would stretch out, close his eyes and murmur "it's sooo relaxing" again and again as we baked our muscles before returning to work. I'm sure if we'd had seat heaters, he would have switched them on as well.
I have to say that I appreciated it for a few minutes, but I wasn't as much into the automotive sauna session as he was. So I would abandon him, remind him not to pass out and die, and I'd get back to the store early from the lunch break. Our old-man boss thought I was the eager worker (but more in a contemptuous "you must be stupid, but OK" way). I was just trying to catch the good air conditioning in the front of the store before heading to the back to build industrial shelving, unload trucks or break down boxes by rhe loading dock.

Just got back from another drive.. I am fully convinced the steering wheel modes have been tweaked.. and I am even more sure that chill mode acceleration and deceleration are different.
I have also seen people complaining in other threads that their steering wheel modes have “stopped working” as of this new release. I don’t think they are broken, just they feel all quite similar now at the start of your turn. It always seems to start similar to comfort mode, but the further you turn the wheel, it gets stiffer, depending on your mode
That would be a drastic change since steering pressure is a muscle memory thing. and I doubt that the tension in it has variable on a smooth curve rather than incremental. that would be pretty sophisticated, and honestly annoying software wise. I'm driving 320 miles tomorrow so I'll test it myself, but I highly doubt its the case. they would have to say something like that in the notes.
Ok, some more 2022.12.1 testing on 2020 MS LR+
- They definitely tweaked the regen, at least in chill mode. It is less aggressive at low speeds. I used to be able to come to almost complete stop before; now, I have to use more brakes.
- It seems that the seat warmers have a “reserved” spot on the launcher. You cannot put another icon on its place if you remove it.
- The North button has moved to the right side of the map
- The backup camera is less laggy
- The logic behind the new buttons (except the rear defogger) is idiotic. For example, the passenger seat warmer is available only in split HVAC. In joined HVAC the driver controls both temps but the seat warmer icon controls only driver’s warmer. I hope they fix that and the defogger/defroster dependency on turned on HVAC in the next year or so (hopefully, without introducing new bugs)
- I did not see any significant change in range estimator
- They fixed the night color schema. I can see secondary streets now!
- Night and day screen brightness are independent now. I officially stopped playing with the settings! Manual mode works perfect now!
- I have a feeling that they made changes to the routing algorithm but need a bit more testing to confirm.

I was thinking just have the 3 dots be a swipe up gesture from the middle of the screen.
Some old voice commands, such as "odometer" (the same as "open trips") and "tire pressure" (the same as "open service settings") are also back!
Auto climate actually turns on Auto seat heater
I like to adjust the fan speed and that turns off Auto climate. Next time when I turn on Auto climate it turns on Auto seat heater too
. Why? Tesla —> Just put the icons on the main bar and stop over designing such controls.

That was what I was worried about. DO. NOT. WANT. But I am hearing conflicting things on this from different people. Is it different in the 3/Y vs the S/X?Auto climate actually turns on Auto seat heater

It is normal for auto HVAC to take over the fan speed. But I still fail to see the link between HVAC and seat warmers - not only manual/auto but also whether you see them or not. I have a feeling that their design team either has to work with horrific spaghetti code and faces severe limitations on what they could do; or those people have never driven a car before - their logic is so twisted in the desire to be different than everything else out there.Auto climate actually turns on Auto seat heater
