Car doesn’t recognise phone

[neilrlsmith]

Anyone had this problem and resolved it? My M3 suddenly doesn’t recognise my iPhone. I have to now unlock the phone and open the app to open my car...

Yes and no. iPhone 6. Normally sorts itself in a minute or so.

I've had this problem since updating to 2019.26.2.3. Never an issue prior to that. Always been faultless.

Verify Tesla App has Background permission and location MUST be set to Always.

It must look like this. And battery saver must be off.

Also there is an option in the App FaceID or Finger Print ID. I think that has to be off. If you ever turned that on reinstall the app and leave it off.

Thank you. Will try all of this.
