Yes fob summon works just like on the S/X. I haven't been able to get the personless autopark to work though.
Oh awesome. Did you also get delivery of the new fob? Or are you saying that the old v1 Model 3 fob also supported Summon? Wow well that would add utility to the v1 key fob wouldn't it.
@derotam , I don't understand why you're thinking anyone is against Tesla here - we're all proud owners of their car, and constructive criticism is the ONE thing that leads to constant innovation (I dare say that's in Tesla's base culture as well, that's how they have innovated to such an extent). Further, calling out the person or entity you love the most so that they can improve is the best thing one can do, in this case calling out Tesla for not providing the key fob for free with every Model 3 is also quite appropriate.
With this in mind, I therefore do not understand why you are so dead set on defending Tesla here - could you take a moment to pause and reflect over the tone of your posts in this thread and see if you've perhaps been too aggressive in your defence of Tesla?
For what its worth, I have an Android phone and the phone key has given me a pause about once every week. That's a ridiculously large number of times in my six months of ownership. Out of those once-a-week scenarios, sometimes pulling and holding on the door handle for a couple of seconds has worked, sometimes just pulling out my phone and waking it up, sometimes having to quickly toggle airplane mode, and if everything fails, I just resorted to the key card like we're supposed to. All of these are minor annoyances, but when I paid 50 big ones for a car, these are MAJOR FAILS. Yes, they are. Unlike
@crackers8199 who I think is being polite and not arguing further, I am much more willing to waste my time to make you see the light of his and my argument here. At least for a day lol.
Let my phone be a $1500 top-of-the-line iPhone or a $200 POS android. SO WHAT. If Tesla was aware of it being a possible issue that not all phones will work flawlessly (and of course they must've been during beta testing), they most certainly should've changed their language to say "the primary method of entering our grand $50000 car is a primitive contact-based key card, and the optional, awesome-but-sometimes-flakey method of entering is, surprise surprise, your own phone!". This should've been the official line until today, when the v2 key fobs are finally getting into people's hands. Now they can (and should) change the official line to say the primary way is this key fob, secondary is your phone key, and third backup is the key card.
This topic, the ability to not get into the car 100% of the time for 100% of the Model 3 owners, is absolutely ONE HUNDRED PERCENT Tesla's fault and within their capability to mitigate - either by simply acknowledging that the key card is Primary, or by providing the key fob for free and calling it the primary. As I'm sure you understand, the Phone as Key can never be and should never have been mentioned as the Primary method of entering the car - bluetooth technology and battery optimization software on phones is too unpredictable to allow that in today's day and age. Even if they claim to fix everything and I get ONE lockout with the phone app, my confidence will forever remain shattered with Phone key.
Regarding the pricing, whether or not $150 is fair is up for debate, I certainly understand that there must be a fat profit margin on this item, but I don't know how much half a mill in key fob revenue is going to matter to the bottom line.
