For anyone interested in Apple Watch apps I recently installed the ‘Watch App for Tesla’ after watching a nice review of this on the ‘Frugal Tesla Guy’ YouTube channel. He gave it an enthusiastic thumbs up and my experience so far is also very positive. It was easy to install and configure, although setting up the background image showing an avatar of your specific car model and colour etc takes a little more effort, but isn’t difficult. It gives you quick access to see car data (including battery charge) and control many basic car functions from the watch, without getting your phone out. I found it useful to open the front boot when walking back from shops for example. Anyone else tried this app?

Yes, I watched the same YouTube video, and decided to give it a go. All seems to work fine, although I’ve not yet set up the background image!
I watched this - looks good. Would be great though if Tesla allowed an Apple Watch to be set up as an actual key.
Yes I was also hoping Tesla would provide an Apple Watch version of their phone App but so far not. Until they do, this App seems like a reasonable option. It will be good if the developer offers some additional configuration/customisation options in future but it is already nicely designed.
