If you need a beta tester for the S, let me know. I have one already on order for my 3.

I'm a tech nerd/geek who loves to tinker with vehicles...
I like CanServer because it feeds data to apps like Scan My Tesla, which shows tons of useful/raw info. Some of the CanServer programmable micro LCD displays would be cool to have, but they're not building them anymore.
I've got similar hardware/software combinations for my Land Rover's, BMW's, Toyota's and Nissan , but in addition to diagnostics and data feeds, those allow feature and dealer-level programming.
All of that being said - I ordered (2) of the Teslogic kits. Since there won't be a conflict with the CanServer , it was a no-brainer! Can't wait to get everything!
I have multiple apps already that want access to my ODB2 dongle: one that gives me a dash-boardy experience and just wants the car speed (author feels overwhelmed and wouldn't want to add turn-signals/etc...but it also displays other bluetooth data from a different device of high interest to me), and Scan-my-tesla. I can't switch quickly between those apps, because I have to kill one to get it to give up the connection to talk to the other.
The "Sexy buttons" product similarly uses it's own bluetooth dongle to connect to the can bus. It can't really handle multiple consumers either... it claims to support a "over wifi" way of exporting the data.
So I'd love it if your dongle used some protocol that made it easier for multiple consumers (preferably bluetooth and open-enough standards that people steal it to build off of it, so that it turns into a real ecosystem). But yeah, technically I don't really see a way that leads to a good UX... I suspect I'll just end up with 3 separate dongles at some point.

Very interested in this! I did uncover a bug with the test program on the app: I have an iPhone SE (small screen) and the text for the battery percentage / temp as well as the posted speed limit is cut off or not readable. Is there a setting for this for those of us will small phones?
And a question (probably already answered): Can I use a phone other then the one that is connected to the Tesla? I have an older Pixel 3 that has a better resolution screen and works perfectly that I could use..
Thanks!

Hi! I just checked the app on iPhone SE and it displayed everything correctly. I think the problem can be caused by the text size. If you change it to the medium in your Display & Brightness settings, all text should be readable.
We're also currently developing a new version of the app, in which it will be possible to increase the size of all data on the dashboard if you prefer a larger text size.
Regarding your question, our software does not require connection to Tesla, only connection to our transmitter, so you can use whichever phone you want.
Could you elaborate on this a bit? Does this mean that with the module installed we'd completely lose the ability to adjust follow distance using the scroll wheel (or maybe only if there's an active connection to a device with Teslogic running)? Does that also mean this device is not purely read-only, and that you're actually injecting/intercepting commands to override or ignore the scroll wheel while AP is engaged?
It might be just me, but I think it would be a better user experience to lose the ability to change Teslogic screens using the scroll wheel while AP is engaged and keep the AP follow distance adjustment from the scroll wheel intact. It would also make me more comfortable if the device was only reading off the CAN buses.
Best UI of any of these types of apps I've seen. Looks like a great product. I'm also wondering if there'd be any issue piggybacking your harness adapter plus another OBDII adapter in a 2018-2020 model 3 using the rear console connection. I'm another potential customer that doesn't want to give up ScanMyTesla access.

Hi! Our first batch has been delivered to the warehouse. On Monday we will send orders from there, shipping to Canada takes about 3-5 business days.

Ordered one, I will say though that $25 is pretty steep for shipping something as small as this, seems like a way to get back some of the "discount" offered.
I asked the same via emails and told me that is compatible with magsafe and cases with magsafe. no need for additional magnet
For now, you can run the app one user at a time, each with your own phone. It is not yet possible for two users to use the application at the same time, but we will add this feature later.
Yes, if you close the application on the first phone, it will automatically pair with the second one.
Thanks for your message, we're already solving this problem and considering changing our logistics partner.
Teslogic doesn't consume battery power when the car is sleeping.
