V.11 Sentry Mode?

[AKinDC]

There’s a lot I like about the new V.11 interface, but I can’t find a way to turn on Sentry mode from the main screen like you used to be able to do. Doesn’t appear in the customizable icon list.
Any ideas?

I use the voice command before I leave the car. “Enable sentry mode”

I just say "keep Rubi safe". I love the Rick and Morti shout out!

The Sentry Mode icon and many other icons that disappeared from the main screen are now on the Controls screen.

I know…I’m trying to figure out if there’s a way to get that back to the main screen.

Don’t think so. I expect that after Tesla hears about some of the things people don’t like, they might tweak the UI to address them.

I really like most of the UI changes but I really don't like the complete removal of the top right icons and data displaying the cell signal quality and Bluetooth connectivity etc.

Yeah, I had the same complaint. I wish they allow customizing the status icons to add it back (like the bottom menu allows). Phones do allow this. Now it's an extra button click away, which doesn't make much sense given having those on the top were not really intrusive.

The Homelink access needs to be tweaked also. Seems to disappear exactly when it’s needed most.

I just leave sentry mode on except at my home. If I actually do want to turn it off after parking somewhere other than home, then I just go to controls and turn it off...its one button press more than previous UI. Alternatively just do it on phone but that's more button presses! Of course, the best way it to use voice command...as in nearly every case of buttons moving around...voice command stays the same! I prefer the cleaner look of the main screen and not having icons plastered over the top.

In what way? It’s still on the top of the main screen, plus in V.11 I get a more specific “open/close garage” prompt in the lower left.

Same problem here. I usually activate it from the screen upon entry. Now I think the only option is voice activation

Are Sentry mode events still not pushing notifications?! I am going to go crazy having the ability to check on my car with the camera but not actually be notified of any issues… Send help.

There's a Teslacam (dashcam viewer) icon on the bottom bar that you can press to bring up the viewer. (If it doesn't show, bring up additional apps. It's the square camera looking icon.)

Thank you, my USB drive got corrupted after the update and wouldn't let the dashcam viewer open anymore i switched it to another one and it worked.
