By updated do you mean less refined, less user friendly and more cartoonish looking? Like it was designed by an 8th grader….the same 8th grader who decided to implement a yoke instead of a perfectly good round steering wheel.

I agree that this app does need a bit of work as it's very unlike the usability of the old app. While the older look was a bit outdated, it worked and worked well. I hate that with this new app, you can't always tell when you are connected to your phone, and everything seems a bit slow. I really wish they would put some work into working out all the bugs and making the functionality like the previous versions.

Everyone has an opinion. Apparently yours and mine do not align. Of course most people are on this forum to simply complain about everything.

The Tesla app is so old and stale it needs an update but please don’t change anything!
I've seen endless UI 'updates' done just for the sake of pushing an update which often brings havoc.
What's next for those who like new? A meteor shower background and sparks? Okay, if so but let me disable it at least. Also, the 1st thing for an app is to be useful and perform its tasks.
The Tesla app is essential for ALL Tesla owners. This version is bad. Hope they will fix it pronto as franky this does not paint a 'Tesla' like picture I expected. YMMV.

While the others will just praise Tesla no matter what they do. I guess there’s no happy medium.
It seems to be the case for most app developers. They are stuck in rewrite culture - they feel they have to push updates up all the time even if they have no real reason to. So to justify their jobs they change the UI and push it as a major update. Lots of things break, people complain, then they are employed happily for the next year fixing all the bugs.
They did the same with the Model 3 UI update for the touch screen. All it did was make the map smaller, totally pointless and didn't address any of the longstanding issues like not being able to see the full title of the thing you are listening to on Spotify etc.

I know, first world problem, but so us rare pano roof owners will need to wait that the dev team realise we are still around and shows, like on the previous apps, appropriate UI display.

Fortunately, they remembered the Vent Roof option...but we lost the regular Vent option. Hmm. Just noticed the unlock functionality is missing from Controls now as well? The Trunk and Charge Port options show up once connected...but what is that second Open on the frunk for?I know, first world problem, but so us rare pano roof owners will need to wait that the dev team realise we are still around and shows, like on the previous apps, appropriate UI display.

It's because people complain when no updates come out. Just go and read all the update complaints "I'm not on version xxxx.xx.x.x WAAA. WAAA. Tesla sucks. WAA".
There is NO making people happy. Don't even try. There will always be someone that doesn't like something you did.
yea I now have to check my wifi router's app to see if the car is still connected. If it's no longer connected I know it's asleep.
Any idea if this is something the service center could fix? Or is there an email address to reach out too? I know it’s a little thing that shouldn’t bother me (that the seats are the wrong color in the app), but it does.

Yes sent a message from the app to service center/request service I saw on another threed that one user ask to change color of the seats and thex change rapidly with remote intervention and cancel the service request
