I have background refresh on and Stats works just the way I want.

I have location services for the app set to "only when app is running". Does anyone know if this limits what statistics the app will collect. I don't like to have location services set to "always" for any app.
I would like to know this as well before purchasing the app. The app sounds promising, but I think I have to overcome the mental barrier of spending $10 on a phone app. The developer has been quite active on this thread which is promising.

I’ve had and used most of these kinds of apps. Even thought I’ve had it for only two days, IMHO STATS ranks among the top two. The feature I love is the ability to switch between my Model S and Model 3 and compare the stats for both cars.
Background refresh must be enabled for the app to be able to collect data. Don't worry about battery consumption; it's quite small.
Thanks. I've made some improvements for multi-family in the upcoming version.
If you are interested in the battery reminder feature of the app which send you a notification of battery is low and the car is at your designated location (eg. Home) and the car is unplugged, then set location permission to on.
Even when it's set to "always", the app doesn't monitor your location constantly (otherwise the battery runs out in about 30 min). 'always' premission allows the app do detect when you arrive at your designated location for the low battery notification.

Hi rawmean,
Your location services set to “Always On” and background refresh clarifications would be good to add in your already excellent FAQ. As you well know, the most common concerns people have are about phone and car battery usage, and privacy when using the app.

I've been using Stats for several months now. It's a great app for that price. It gives me more information than the Tesla app. I usually use Stats to precondition my car rather than using Tesla app. The Siri shortcuts feature is also very nice. I have background refresh on all the time and set location services to always. That's the settings work the best for me. I have only a few apps on my phone with location services set as "Always" and, I believe those apps work the best with that setting. Also, the reminder notification as the developer mentioned is yet another really nice feature.

I bought the app before my first road trip last week. Almost never spend much on apps, but this one is worth it. I also spent $10 on OBD app when I drove a gas car back in the day.
Thank you @erthquake. I've noticed it before, but forgot to fix it. It's fixed now and will appear in the next update in a few days.
The new update includes a new Siri shortcut for opening the charge port. This is useful when you use a non-Tesla charger.
I mis-spoke. The "always" permission is used to detect when you arrive at a location to check the status of the doors/trunk/frunk to make sure that they are closed.
The "battery charge reminder" should still work even if the location permission is not set to "always"

Would be fun to chart efficiency vs tire pressure (average of all four wheels). Probably unwieldy to get meaningful trends with all the different wheel sizes though.
I don't remember seeing tire pressure in the API. Tire pressure should be set to the recommended value, anyway.
The app includes efficiency as a function of temperature.
