Spencer, you should add a home / away profile to the APP to allow for choosing to use the proxy or not. At work proxy / home no proxy.
Great APP though, if I get sometime I'll code a patch and send it your way for this feature.

Thanks for the idea! I'm working on version 2 and will try to include proxy support.

How about something like the following:

• App checks the current WiFi network name (SSID)
• App then prompts user to select either Home or Away options (Saves selection for current SSID)
• If the user selects home, then the app proceeds to the initialization
• If the user selects away, then the app asks the user whether or not to use a proxy
• If the user says yes to proxy usage, then the app asks for proxy info (Saves proxy info as well)
• If not, then the app continues, but is more secure in it's communication with the Tesla servers. (SSL certificate verification)

This shouldn't be too much of a hassle, except for routing all the communication through the proxy.
Periodic app updates are kept here

Yep, love it, you don’t even have to modify it to much really I can send you my working proxy setup with your code if you want it. But, great work.

Alright!

It would be amazing if you could send me the proxy code!

Here's what I managed for today, this will appear on app startup.

Thanks!

Pm me yoiur email address or I can do a PR on your git, but I’m not up to date, either way I’ll get it to yah.

What’s the reason to ask if it’s trusted, we should always be https even when trusted I think.

Https is on all of the time; but SSL certificate verification is off by default. If the network is deemed unsafe, then the app will also check if Tesla's SSL certificate is valid before using the API.
