I have a question for all of you who are much smarter than me when it comes to this kind of stuff. I have read that there is a hypothesis that certain apps on one's phone may be impacting the tesla app. So, I'd like to do an experiment. What if I got a cheap Iphone or whatever people think actually works, used or whatever, and did NOT activate the phone with a carrier, would the bluetooth still work? My idea here is to just have a phone that has nothing on it, nothing to confuse it, that is a dedicated "key" for the car. I'd use wireless to download the app, and then just rely on the bluetooth to open/start the car. This way I could better determine whether one of my apps is impacting my ability to use the "key" or if there's actually a problem with my car.
I don't personally want to switch from Android to Iphone, and I don't want to pay for another line of service if that's not necessary to do my test. I would like to determine how much of the phone as key issue is being caused by the car vs incompatibility of my collection of apps on my primary Android device.
