Has anyone tested Camp Mode yet?

I dont have the update yet so I havent been able to try it.

How does it work? Are you liking it?

I am wondering if it automatically shuts off if you leave the car.

Do you have to be in the car the whole time with the key fob?

Can you lock the car, walk away, and leave it on?

Thanks!

Sounds like you are interested enough in it to go try it yourself and report back.

Please go back and reread the very first sentence.

I have tried it once so far. The screen stays throughout. When I woke up I could not do anything. The camp screen was happily showing the campfire, but there was no way I could do anything else. It took a full hard reset for the car to react again...
I have not dare use it since and have gone back to the "old system": go to heating, select "keep heat on" and select the desired temperature and fan speed (setting 1 should do). Then go to security on the main screen and select "Shut down the car". This works fine for me. You wake up the car again by applying some pressure on the drivers' seat.

Ive used it many times since finally getting my 6 month old car back from Tesla. I really like camp mode a lot. I havent had any issues with that thankfully.
