I mainly use the Tesla app but often find it can't connect to the car, particularly if I have used it to connect recently.
Visible Tesla is better at waking the car plus it has more features so I have it on my work computer. I like the preset levels for charging in particular but haven't used the trip meters as I'm pretty much the only driver.
I recently downloaded Remote S but haven't played with it much yet.
I use the Tesla App on an iPhone 5S through TPG (Optus) 3G. Had the car over three months; tend to use the app half a dozen times a day. Only time I couldn't get a connect car was in a basement car-park.I mainly use the Tesla app but often find it can't connect to the car, particularly if I have used it to connect recently.

Looking forward to reading everyone's posts on this topic. Also anxious to learn what app works best with the Apple Watch.
Don't have an Apple watch but I understand that Remote S was written to be compatible with the watch.
Remote S: Tesla app for Apple Watch, iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch
VisibleTesla running on my microserver at home
TeslaFTW on my Pebble watch (switching on aircon or heater from my watch is awesome)
and the stock Tesla app on my Android phone.
Hoping for an Android port of Remote S because the Tesla Android app is even worse than the Tesla iPhone app.
Any tips on getting PebbleFTW to work? I don't seem to be able to log in.
HI, Just installed Visible Tesla but can't log in. Using my Tesla email and password. Any ideas? Can login in to Tesla website fine.
Hi Barry
Make sure you're running VT 0.50 or later, as Tesla made some changes to their API that stops older versions from working.
Unfortunately the author still considers it "Beta" so hasn't linked to it from the first post in the relevant thread, but the question gets asked there every week or two.
See here for the relevant info
Is VT available for anything other than android? (ie iPhone)?
