Tesla app on android service section

[RDoc]

On my Samsung S9+, the Messaging part of the Service app shows the reply box at the bottom and when the keyboard comes up it covers the reply box. This only happens in the Tesla app. My messaging and other apps work without problems.

Also the black theme with grey text is very difficult to read in bright light. There seems to be no way to change it.

I'm having the same problem on my Motorola G5. Also, there is no obvious way to actually send the message once you've (guessed at) typing it. Any ideas would be welcome.

same problem....

Is there another way to have a conversation with Service ... email, voice? Anybody?

in the usa you can just call various service centres and probably get some competent help. in the rest of the world you are screwed.

Well, this is a very old thread, but here it is 2021 - new Tesla Owner (first post on forum) - and I've got the same issues on the app on a pixel 5, running the very latest Android update. It also constantly shows that I have a new service message, when I don't. :-(

oops - was mistaking "joined" date on users for the post date. duh.

Here in Columbus, Ohio the local SC has an email address where they respond promptly. That's my first "go to" to get service. Or maybe a local Facebook page - here at least one of the mobile tech's are active there. Generally it's pretty easy to at least chat via email here.

Same issue. My workaround was to type the messages elsewhere and paste them into the service box.

I had an issue that it says that I have a service message, but every time I click, it brings me back to the "select service" page. Tried signing out, clearing cache, clearing data, reinstalling app, nothing helped.

I reached out to chat support (go to "contact us" on bottom of support page, select "Tesla Service and Repair", "Question about an Upcoming Service Appointment", click Yes for "Do you need more help?"). The agent was able to retrieve the service message for me and let me know what it was. In my case, it was that my mobile service was cancelled and for me to call a local number to schedule a service center appointment. Chat agent said the app issue should be fixed after I schedule the appointment. After doing so, although it still shows "You have unread message(s) from your service team," it at least now shows my new appointment when I click it.

I don't recall having the same issue with the keyboard though when I entered my description (I have Android 10). I never got to the message reply screen however.

Same issue. Samsung A71 5G with Android 10.

Yes. Just close the keyboard which then shows the send button.

I have the same problem with a Moto Force 2. I appreciate @ehacke workaround, thank you for the suggestion. I open a text window in keep, copy and paste after editing. Works well but is a pain.

You can work around by enabling "floating" on the keyboard and moving keyboard to top of the screen.

 

[techmagnetic]

Yeah the experience on my Pixel 5 is pretty bad. This is our only means of communication with service and it's broken.

I'm going to try floating the keyboard like @Stevefr suggested.
