I think the rings are actually made from the chip in your key card, that's why they work.if i can get an inanimate object (like a ring) to be an NFC key for my car why cant i get my NFC watch (Garmin in this case) to do it?

I think the cheapest ones are right under $100 USD. Haven't checked in awhile.Glad I saw this b/c I was going to buy a generic NFC ring. i'm surprised that NFC tags aren't programmable someway.
OT but what's the cheapest current TESLA ring solution? surprised TSLA doesn't offer it
I've always liked the Cnick ring, aka Teslaring. They range from $100 to $200 for custom.Glad I saw this b/c I was going to buy a generic NFC ring. i'm surprised that NFC tags aren't programmable someway.

I bought the COLMO ring on Amazon for $120. It works fine via RFID (no internet required) and is a nice backup to my iPhone-as-key. The COLMO ring pairs with a Model 3 or Y using the same procedure as pairing a Tesla keycard. We have two Teslas and I was able to pair my ring with both of them.I think the cheapest ones are right under $100 USD. Haven't checked in awhile.
If you are paranoid you can genereate your own tokens for the Tesla API and feed to the third party app.Curious why anyone would give their Tesla login info to a 3rd party app. Until my apple watch can show up as a key under security in the Tesla App, and in the car itself, no thank you. I think the delay is apple wants car manufacturers to use the Apple Key system and Carplay and Tesla in not about to give up any of the experience to Apple.
I don't have a Tesla yet, I am buying a house first. As soon as we settle on the house, I'm allowed to get my Tesla (I was thinking Model 3, but I have been thinking about a Model Y). I know that my decision to purchase isn't even a drop in the bucket to them, but there are a few things that I feel like they are going backwards on.They are using low emissions bluetooth for the phone as key, not regular bluetooth.. and I wouldnt hold my breath. Likely be a support nightmare because many people with watches dont have LTE versions, and wouldnt understand why their watch didnt open the car, etc.
Thats my guess as to why tesla doesnt have a watch complication for iPhone or watch app for android. support concerns.

I know there are third party work arounds, but they do not work the same technologically (they work through your phone, might be less reliable) and they usually aren't free.
- Keyless entry with a keypad- I shouldn't need anything- I want a sleek vehicle, so a physical button keypad could be replaced with a capacitive system for backup [this system would be great when your battery dies or device malfunctions- cards are bulky and not an answer]
- First Party, Direct Bluetooth Support in the Tesla software for Apple Watch & Google Wear (other devices like the fitbit Versa 3 might also be possible)- For what Teslas cost, like service centers, "good enough" will no longer do. When I go to the gym, I want to be able to be able to work out without having to carry anything.

You’ll find over time that the things you were concerned about pre-Tesla become non-events. At least that’s what happened for me.

A capacitive keypad on the glass B-pillar is not a bad idea, because you wouldn't see it when you weren't using it.I don't have a Tesla yet, I am buying a house first.
