Is there an app or a way to find real time tire pressure in 2013 Model S85?
They also do not vary in PSI more than maybe a pound in 20,000 miles when I get the next set on. I occasionally look at the tire profile as I walk up. That's about it.
Many of us use FOBO Tire or FOBO Tire Plus.
About a year ago I actually organized a group buy, so a lot of us got the FOBO Tire Plus that way. Even though I now have the ability to see the tire pressures on my model through the Tesla Firmware, I still use the FOBO Tire Plus, as it shows tire temperatures too, and also shows the pressures in increments of .2 PSI.
Edit: Here's the thread. The first post should have a lot of information about what it is, the company, etc.
Group Buy for FOBO Tire Plus - $30 or $50 off, plus free express shipping ($20 value)
(The group buy ended long ago. I'm just posting the thread to provide the info on FOBO Tire Plus.)
If it's an early 2013 (like mine is) you can't get that info. I ended up getting the Fobo tire sensors, they have an app for my iPhone (and watch!) which lets me see the pressures in real time.

Well, you do live in Northern California. The temperature variation you experience there is probably significantly less than the temperature variation I experience in upstate NY. If your temperatures varied 70-80 degrees F, I assure you your tire pressures would vary more than a pound in PSI. In fact even with relatively mild temperature swings, I'd think your pressures would vary some, season to season.
Do you actually adjust your tire pressure based on ambient temperature?

Not my experience! I've had two "tire pressure dangerously low" messages. Both were nails in the tire. One was a simple free fix at Les Schwab tires, my second one (over a year later) was directly into the sidewall so I've got a new Michelin Primacy 19" tire....My tires don't go flat that often. As in, Never. They also do not vary in PSI more than maybe a pound in 20,000 miles when I get the next set on. I occasionally look at the tire profile as I walk up. That's about it.
Maybe I am missing something here (apologies if so), but you can just use the left dash display to see the individual tire pressures. Scroll through the options and one of them shows individual pressures...
In California (or is it Federal??), it is a law that Service Centers must check tire pressures, I guess so that dangerous life threatening blowouts don't occur while traveling at 5 mph on the freeway during rush hour.
From something that used to be so non interesting that nobody cared, now we have to buy special sensors so we can view them on an app and see temperatures, and pressures to 0.2 PSI??? Amazing.
