New Tesla APP 4.x. Released for iOS and Android
- Thread starter Piggyz
- Start date
... And we all thing there are issues with Tesla.
This is going to be such an added bonus. Now that all new cars come with phone as a key this was a great decision.
Can't wait to try this out. I hate that you lose the S/C on the main nav screen when you start zooming out. This was a great way to show someone all the S/C.

But your car is charging (green cable).
My car is planned for charging.
Car is not connected. You can set the range.
Car is charging.
It may be different for the Model 3/Y.

Thanks for clarifying that. It's a change and maybe I missed any documentation Tesla provided.

It apparently won’t show sites beyond a certain mileage from your location.
As an example, I’m in Cary, NC today and it only shows the 3 super chargers in the Triangle and one near Asheboro but that’s it (there are several not far ie Fayetteville, Burlington, etc that don’t show up).

I just tried the new app on a old iphone i had and it looks good.. way different than the app i'm used to so when my main android phone gets the update it will be a slight learning curve I think. one good thing though is that I do see my reservation Model Y on the new app vs the "old" android app where I only see my powerwalls.

Looks like the Android APK is available:
Should be on the Play Store again soon.
Android update is out. You can sideload the apk directly if you don't want to wait.

Seriously? I use this all the time. I'm watching Netflix and watching the charge percentage.
I think he meant can no longer see the charging rate in this new app version we're discussing, not the car screen.

Another improvement: “share to car” from the Maps app now works even if you have solar/powerwall selected within the Tesla app. Previously it would fail and tell you to open the app and select a vehicle.
Two great updates for those with two Teslas on Android:
1) The app will still work as a key even if it's on the other car. I have an X and 3, and it used to be that if the app was on the X, the 3 wouldn't unlock or drive. Now it does. So nice.
2) The powerwall ad is gone. Used to be that if you swiped the wrong way, you got a powerwall ad that took 3+ seconds to dismiss, and I could never remember which way to swipe to get the other car.

??? At least at home, my app shows 72/72A and 43 MI/HR right at the top as I am charging right now. Just like before I assume this changes to kW at a Supercharger?

Does anyone know how to access the "Go Off-Grid" feature advertised for this release? My inverter is having some issues that cause it to perform better when decoupled from the grid (it clips to 1.8kW when grid-connected, but doesn't clip during e.g. a grid power outage), so I'd like to try explicitly decoupling it during the day to see if it affects this problem.
