Hoping we can get a bit of help with some questions about the Tesla Mobile App. As new owners of a pre-owned 2019 Model 3 dual motor AWD, we've used the app very little to date, and we appreciate your patience and understanding.
My wife and I both have our own Tesla accounts and have the mobile app installed on both our Google Pixel 3a XL android phones.
Here goes: If we arrive at our destination and leave together with our authenticated phones, will the Walk-Away lock function work properly? Out of curiosity, what determines which phone sends the activation signal? If one of us returns alone, will their phone function properly as an unlock key?
If one of our phones (or both) are not authenticated, can we still use them for opening the trunk/frunk, flashing the lights, and honking the horn. Assuming the latter two are intended to assist with locating our car in a crowded parking lot, what is the range? What is the purpose of the START icon?
If anyone has any special considerations, tips, trouble shooting notes, or suggestions, for using the app, please share.
Thank you all
Murray and Sandy C.
