Stats app and Apple Watch series 4 users. Feedback

[Rottenapplr]

hi guys anyone with a series 4 Apple Watch use the stats app please chime in your experience. I have a series 3 Apple Watch and the watch is PAINFULLY slow. It’s not even worth using because it takes 45 seconds just to unlock the trunk and stuff.

Can anyone speak about their experience using the series 4 Apple Watch. Is it fast and useable? I’m asking cause I would like to upgrade my series 3 to a 5.

No issues with my Series 4. If the car is asleep commands take longer to process. In general this is not an issue.

So let’s say how long does the app respond to opening the Frunk? How about starting the car (if you have pin to drive enabled).

Series 3 is pretty useless tbh with regards to running non-native app.

If the car is awake and you have good signal - maybe 5 seconds at most.

I have been using it for a couple days with a Series 3 and haven’t really had any issues...

I have a Series 4 and find Stats useless for unlocking the car. I think it's a combination of waiting around for the car to wake up and not always having a strong cellular or wifi connection. It can take 20 seconds or longer so I stopped using it.

It's been bad enough (either too slow or just not working at all) at opening the frunk that I stopped using it. It's faster to put down what I'm carrying, open the Tesla App and hit the button in there. Apple Watch 4.

let's tweet Elon to make Tesla App compatible to Apple Watch.

I just use it as I am walking up to the car and haven’t had issues...

The car uses bluetooth to unlock why would a weak cellular or wifi connection matter?

I recently got a series 5 and more recently installed Stats on it. In my one attempt to unlock the doors it worked quickly. It connected quickly and unlocked as soon as I hit the button. The time consuming part is scrolling though the apps to get to stats, then scrolling down to get to unlock.

The car only uses Bluetooth when your phone is nearby. I’m talking about if you don’t have your phone with you and want to unlock your car using the app on your Apple Watch. It is using an API over the internet to send an unlock command, similar to if you were using the app on your phone and wanted to unlock the car from a long distance away. The car and the watch both have to have a strong wifi or cellular signal for it to work.

Ah, yeah. I guess I never really saw the point since you cant drive without your phone or a keycard. I suppose there are use cases but, it sounds very few.

It comes in handy when you want to get something out of your car in the garage, but your phone is inside on the counter. I read on some M3 group that someone was able to drive the car with the watch alone, but I never saw what app they were using.

I tire of poking the ‘open frunk’ button, often several times, with delayed onscreen feedback which leaves me stewing at my phone outside the local shops like a bIt of a d*ckhead. If it was slow amd I knew a quick press at the tills would mean it’s open when I get there it would be fine but it’s too haphazard to be useable or fun. Siri Shortcuts of any fashion have left me looking similarly stupid. I need to force myself to experiment with it in private instead of in a busy car park!
