Where it would really help is when you run out to the car to grab something quick and forget your phone. I have the apple watch on almost all the time and enabling it to unlock the car would be great.

Hey great to see you on board - and as for the feelings all I can say is they just grow and grow daily until you think to yourself you need to buy another Tesla just to experience the next set of add-ons up the scale. The one 'petal' driving is utterly addictive and after 2 weeks you will get in an ICE and need to ask someone how it works and WTF are all these buttons for?My thoughts after the first 200 miles:
Likes:
Driving dynamics - steering is dynamic and the throttle response is obviously unlike any ICE vehicle I’ve ever experienced.
One petal driving - took a few hours but love it
Tesla App - underrated, love not having to carry a bulky car key
Interior lighting and roof are nice touches - give an elevated feeling
Dislikes:
No sunglasses holder
No “oh *sugar*” bar
No carpet in the frunk
Other notes:
SpeedBoost is happening
AppleWatch should be a key

cool but I live in England - we have no sun so no need for sunglass holder - Thanks again ElonMy sunglasses go in the door pocket. FWIW.
for awhile I was using the center console...
agree on the Apple Watch as a key but the Apple Watch is really just an extension of my phone so not sure...
In the meantime I suggest inviting your OH over with a glass of bubbly...
I use the watch app “Remote” from the App Store. It is FANTASTIC! I have used it for more than a year. It is fully functional including: unlock the car, drive the without the phone or car key, adjust the battery charge limit, control HVAC, open trunk or frunk or charge port, etc.
My watch has a cellular connection so no phone required. I use it the most in my own garage when I’ve inadvertently left my phone in the charger. Most of the time I have my phone on my hip in its holster so I don’t often use Remote. But for the times I don’t have my phone with me—it’s REMOTE TO THE RESCUE! I also have great peace of mind that if my phone battery dies while I’m on a hike, Remote will save me.
I truly LOVE Remote!
Is it quick, because I have EV Watch($1), Stats($10) and AutoMate($0.99) on my AppleWatch with cell connection and they're only really useful if I have time to wait.I use the watch app “Remote” from the App Store.

As noted in the other post, there are apps that will unlock your car from your AppleWatch, but you have to have a cell connection, so if you're hiking in some remote canyon, it can be spotty. I think it might be safer to have one of those rings made that has the rfid chip and antenna from your keycard embedded. Then you don't need to rely upon a spotty cell connection.I was thinking if we were going for a hike or something it would be nice to lock my phone and valuables in the car and unlock with just my watch
The Model 3 & Model Y have a Credit Card with a NFC Chip for opening and enabling the car. But you can purchase a Keyfob or use your Phone App...what is this wallet thing you speak of?

When they mention Wallet, they are speaking of carrying the Chiped Card in their Wallet for times when they do not have their phone with them or they are out of range of a Cell Tower.yeah, but what’s a wallet? I don’t understand the term...
It does not request a PIN unless you select that option.
I would think with the Phone that Tesla is assuming that your phone is locked when it is not in your possession.
Do you use Facial Recogition, Passord or Fingerprint to secure your phone? If so, then what is the issue?
