Installed app easily to phone and watch. August2026 I can verify if you get your permission setup correctly this app does it all. only issue: once you get your watch set up to be a key that unlocks your door as you come close. In order for it to unlock as I got near the vehicle, I needed to 'not be' in aod mode, at the very least. not sure if i'm doing something wrong, but sometimes I had to actually open the app on my watch and let the key icon turn green. Then as i reach for the handle it wrx.

Hi, thx! Unfortunately this is as intended. Due to battery constraints on Wear OS, we are not allowed to scan for the vehicle all the time. With each iteration of Wear OS this becomes stricter and stricter. User intervention is required, either by opening the app or swiping to one of the available tiles. I'm working on different approaches to this.

Overall, I am happy with the app. I like the features and the ease of use from my Galaxy6 watch. My only issue is that I did not know that it does not work from your watch if your phone is not near your watch, even though my watch has NFC on, wifi on, and Bluetooth on. That is the reason for 4 stars and not 5 stars. In my opinion, it is still worth it for the one time purchase price. Had it been a subscription, I would most likely cancel it. 5 stars update. It worked. Just use the FAQ to set up

Hi Jeffrey. Thank you for the feedback. I'm a bit puzzled about your problem though. Once you pair the Tesla Key (Bluetooth key), and standing next to your vehicle, the app should work fine without your phone nearby. However, a bug is for the time being preventing some commands from the command menu. This will greatly improve in v4.7.2 coming soon.

Unfortunately due to some external factors, this app no longer works nearly to the effectiveness it was when I bought it. Very disappointing. 1. There is now a subscription fee to access the vehicle over the Internet, such as to turn on climate control. 2. The Bluetooth key can't connect in the background, so you're required to use your watch to unlock the car. 3. The key disconnects during the drive so the car won't lock itself, requiring you to again use your watch.

These are all valid points, I'm afraid, but outside the app's control. 1. The API used over the internet is no longer free. Tesla started billing the usage this month. 2 & 3. Due to new power saving requirements enforced by Google, the app can no longer run services continuously in the background.

What’s new

– Bug fix: Keep the selected watch during the entire login routine if you have more than one watch connected to your phone. Please update both the phone and watch apps.
