2024.20.1 Model S issues

Since 2024.20.1 on my 2018 MX, driver profiles no longer work at all to adjust seats, mirrors. Also several buttons on the UI (trunk, front trunk, close all) no longer work. I'll try the "make new profile" trick but this was an ugly set of regressions.
 
What @DerbyDave have suggested was to press on the charge door to open it manually (you need to have the key and the car needs to be unlocked. Similar as if you stop the chargint and to release the handle. See photo:

Since 2024.20.1 the app no longer controls the car unless it's paired as a phone key. This is a problem as I use a normal iPad in my home to control my car that I do not want to act as a key for it. This used to work properly forever basically until now. Why should I have to pair the device as a key to use the basic controls from my home if I have properly logged into my account as always? This is a huge regression. Tesla has really been messing a lot of basic functionality up recently especially with wifi and bluetooth compatibility among other things.

The latest releases include security changes. Probably closing a new security hole in the previously allowed authentication methods. On the other hand, could just be screwy Tesla programming without written specifications for the programmer to execute. :)
