I just got my new Apple watch Ultra and was thinking....

[Soul Surfer]

I'm sure this has been mentioned many times. The new Apple Watch Ultra, is "all that and a bag of chips". The larger screen just seems to be begging for a Tesla app integration. I can't tell you how many times I've had to turn around to retrieve my phone which I had forgotten on the console. This could pretty much, eliminate that.Just wondering if there are records of Teslas being stolen,due to people leaving the phone (key) in the car?

There is an app for the car but it is a 3rd party app. So you need to give it your password etc .
My hope is that one day soon Tesla extends there iPhone app to the Watch.
As I won't give any 3rd party access to my car.

Thank you. Just not sure if this can allow the watch to replace the phone, with regards to unlocking, etc,

It does but you need to tap on the button, it is not bluetooth
And you need to have cellular or wifi connection

Did you tap on the link to see the watch face?

Yup. I was hoping for a Tesla built one.

Myself as well....I guess one can only dream.

I've been using Watch for Tesla for a while and the following is the set up in my  Watch Ultra. The bottom left is a Shortcut to precondition the MY to 19C in the cold morning. Everything works really well since I have cellular service on my Ultra.

I forgot to mention that you can purchase a watch band that will work as the Key Card would.
Not cheap, not a heavy duty watch strap that would meet the specs of the Ultra bands.
Not for swimming but they look not too bad.

I'm mulling over the possibility of purchasing one, but I'm still on the fence.

Slick website. Overpriced like crazy. From what I understand (or not), they put an RFID in the band and for this, charge an outrageous price. Also not crazy about the materials and lack of ruggedness. Thank you for sharing, though. I'll wait for Tesla to eventually come out with a Watch® app for it.

I suspect it is an inevitability, that Tesla will come out with something. too many smart watches out there (Apple and Android).

You could always control car functions via the various apps while on a network. The BT functionality will allow you to control the car from your watch without any network coverage and allows the watch to replicate the phone key functionality.
