The mobile apps are working for me, but only in the old "polling" mode (non-streaming). I get updates on location and speed every 10 seconds or so, both iOS and Android, not the per-second updates I used to get.

Is it possible that just the streaming part of their server is down for some reason and this wasn't intentional? It appears everyone's ability to get streaming info from whatever device is hindered...

Can anyone check if the location page in the Tesla app updates the speed and energy as usual while driving? I would but my car was totaled.

See upthread. Working, but only updates every 10 seconds or so, seemingly in non-streaming mode.

Concur with FlasherZ. I noticed this yesterday and it continues today.....about a 10 second (or so) update rate.....

fyi - VisibleTesla appears to be working normally again for me as of the time of this post.

What does that mean? Is it streaming or just updating the q10 sec thing...

Seeing streaming data both in iOS app and VT.

Nice. Maybe it was just down for a little bit?

Location for mine is working again too! I did notice that there are no Trips shown for the time the Location was not working but that's not unexpected. Graphs are not functioning now but they went off a while back. Not a biggie as those weren't used much. I'll have to wait until the commute to see about the streaming/updating but happy with the location.

Thanks so much to everyone involved in creating and supporting this amazing product!

I filed a case this morning, don't know if that had any bearing on it.

Hmm, still flaky at times, VT stopped tracking wife driving car around for a while, but iOS was working, now VT is tracking again but iOS app is in polling vs streaming mode it seems.

Agreed. Actually no trips were recorded today, so I think it's down still or intermittent at least.

Here is what I see now in console logs:

Here is what I noticed is broken:

"Overview" tab: Odometer no longer gets updates, mine is stuck at 400-500 miles lower than actual.
"Location" tab: no location updates any longer, just shows the satellite and "Locating your Tesla..."
"Trips" tab: no longer getting any data for the last 2 days

I have also updated to VT 0.26.01 as well, Firmware Version: 1.51.94 (5.9)

here is some of my recent log:

Hi All,

Just a quick update. It seems to be pretty clear now that Tesla changed something on their end that is disabling certain functions in VisibleTesla, teslams, and even their own apps.

In VisibleTesla this impacts more than just the ability to locate your car. As some of you have noticed, things like the speed, power, and odometer readings all use the impacted mechanism.

Tesla's server seem very flaky at the moment. Sometimes I can actually see good data coming through again and other times I can't even log on. Hopefully they are working to get this all sorted out.

It's *possible* that they are upgrading their servers in advance of a new software release on their end. This is sheer and utter speculation on my part.

One good thing that has come out of this is that it forced me to find some issues with the proxy support in VisibleTesla. I installed some proxy software to help me monitor the flow of information between my iPhone and Tesla's servers. In the process I tested VisibleTesla's proxy capability and fixed an issue that was preventing it from working properly.

I'll keep you posted if I learn anything more.

Joe, I wish I could spend a day learning from you. Impressive.

@Joe, Thanks for your hard work!!

Amazing how much time and effort you put unto this! Thanks a lot!

I'm able to log in and check my vehicle location manually again, but am getting the same errors in the logs as you guys. No trips were stored recently.

Things are starting to work better for me, but one of the changes that Tesla made to its servers requires a change to VisibleTesla. I'll release 0.26.02 tomorrow after I've had a chance to test a few more things.
