I purchased one of these £7 rubber fob covers from Amazon.If I could actually attach my house keys to it then I may consider it but as you can’t without buying an extra band to wrap around it then I see it as just another thing to carry around or lose.
I agree they should have fitted a key ring. I have the band with a ring but keep in in a rf sealed pouch in my pocket, so I have the hassle of removing it from the pouch, but I deem it’s worth it.Well its another £17 on top and kind of spoils the look.
They should have just included a key ring on it, does anybody just carry around the fob by itself loose in their pocket?
Is the phone not that slick? I plan to keep the card in my wallet but I was hoping the phone would be fairly strait forward. However, it reads as if the old tech still works better.I have a fob for my 3. Soon to transfer to Y. Plug/unplug, have fob in pocket. Walk up to the car, press button on TWC. Done. Can’t stand the key cards. Plus it looks cool. I had heard you can link a fob to a profile but not done this.
I've never had a problem using the phone. Probably not as easy as a fob, but the number of times I want to do anything other than open a door is tiny.Is the phone not that slick?

That’s fair. I can’t imagine having to be in a massive hurry to open the frunk or trunk.I've never had a problem using the phone. Probably not as easy as a fob, but the number of times I want to do anything other than open a door is tiny.
The card is a right pain, to be honest. If you’re on the latest iPhone, phone is probably fine. I bought a fob as my Honor 10, which I loved in ever respect other than being crap at opening a Tesla, was crap at opening a Tesla. Then I realise my Honor 10 stopped having security updates in 2020, and if it all went wrong I’d lose my bank balance and have a massive fine from the ICO. So now I’ve got an iPhone which I hate and a fob which I love. And I’ve never tried to even program the iPhone as a keyIs the phone not that slick?

It’s anatomically fitted and made of slippery plasticMight be a big pain if it was in you back pocket and you sat on it
I seem to smile a lot more these days...It’s anatomically fitted and made of slippery plastic
I had to Google what an Honor 10 was! I still miss my Sony W810i. I loved that phone, weeks of battery life, excellent call quality and small. But that was in the age of interesting phone designs -pop out keyboards, flip versions… , now they all look the same.The card is a right pain, to be honest.

AND - with a fob you can press a button and just have charge cable release in the morning. Worth it for that alone
…I like buying tech but you’re probably right.Maybe wait and see how you get on with the phone?
I would suggest that the vast majority of owners use their phone as a key just fine. Certainly every Tesla owner I know does.
I’m fitting the Tesla charger as I know that having the open charger feature will be appreciated.iphone with tesla widget works for me. Gives me an unlock charge port button on the widget so fairly easy to get to. Have it on my watch too but find myself just using the phone.
I think you can use siri shortcuts too so can probably do it by voice but haven’t tried.
I would pay money for a smart button from tesla that just did the charge port. The key fob does that, but I don’t need the rest of the features - just the unlock on a small button I put on my keychain

I like that.. any more details?I went for a posh leather keychain accoutrement. Handmade by Crazy Smith.
I recently appreciated a fob feature: the car will tell you when the battery is low. It did this outside my place in Spain with the fob nowhere to be seen. It triggered a fruitless search in handbags, desk drawers, the car and likely hiding spots over two countries... ultimately found in wife's sweater drawer upon our return to our Spanish home.

Google knows all, tells all Aliexpress, sadly. I'm currently boycotting anything from the area where global health issues originate.I like that.. any more details?
