Suggestion for Tesla to improve security with keyless given the spate of Teslas seem to be being stolen in the UK at the moment.
As I also posted on the TOGUK facebook, I have now turned keyless off and a right pita it is now - just shows how you get used to convenience features.
So, Allow the app to set schedule(s) that keyless won't work. This way if you know you are going to be away from the car for a period of time (eg shopping, or overnight on the drive) you have to use the key or disable schedule from the app to override.
You could also have an option on the main display to disable keyless for xx time on leaving the car, could even default to your normal start time the next day if it detects you are at home.
This, assuming that Tesla don't manage to get phone as a key working for the S as has been trailled, but even then you have to be careful that your phone is not too close when at home.
Hope Tesla pick up on the severity of these thefts in the UK - I would suggest a specific update (again) and with notes to disable due to thefts with a warning dsplayed if you override.
This is bad for Tesla reputation and sales as insurance costs will spiral out of control, and also an opportunity for Tesla to show agility that other makers cannot as it is not just Tesla that are affected.
Other ideas?
