Remote S is still better for at least one thing
Thanks for updating the graphics and listening to some of my feedback. But I was hoping for more functionality. Seems like you guys are playing catch up to the other Tesla app Remote S, but still not there yet. For one thing, Remote S has Apple Watch support.
Room for improvement:
1. Let me schedule the commands. For example, I want to schedule the car to have a certain charge by the time it reaches a certain time. Right now I have to do mental math each time I want to have the car finish charging at the time I want it to end charging. This issue is important because the battery is warmed up when charging. So the battery is ready for driving if I end the charge right when I need to leave for work. But if the charge is completed hours beforehand, then the battery is cold when I leave in the morning and things like regenerative brakes are disabled.
2. Apple Watch support. Its been out for almost 2 years now.
3. Let me use the cold weather functions, like front and rear defrosters or seat heaters. Sometimes my car is covered with snow and I would like to have the car ready when Im ready.
4. Button to open the trunk. My car is parked with the trunk facing the garage door. When I want to access to the trunk, I have to do the extra step of taking out the car keys to unlock the car or to slide myself along the narrow space to reach the driver door handle to tell the car to unlock the car. Please just let me use the app. Also useful when carrying groceries and I want to open the trunk prior to arrival to the car.
5. Plug-in reminder. Please remind me to plug my car in if the charge is getting low. Sometimes I forget and then Im stranded from going to work since the charge isnt fast enough.
6. Let me use HomeLink when the car is plugged in or when Im driving the car. This is my most used command on Remote S because it lets me use HomeLink even though the car is in my garage plugged in. Sometimes I just want to grab something from the garage so I open up Remote S and press HomeLink.
