Remote control for Tesla vehicles

The Tesla app connects Tesla owners with their vehicle from a phone. It suits drivers who want to check vehicle status and manage common tasks without being beside the car. Depending on the vehicle and account setup, it can be used to lock doors, open the trunk, sound the horn, flash the lights, and control cabin temperature before a journey.

Charging, location and access

The app shows charging information and battery status, helping owners keep track of an active charging session. It also supports vehicle location features for finding a car in a crowded area. Tesla owners can use the app as a phone key where supported, reducing reliance on a separate key fob. Some vehicles also support Summon controls through the app for moving the car in suitable spaces.

Connected energy tools

For households using Tesla energy products, the app brings vehicle and home energy information together. Powerwall users can view information related to solar production and home energy consumption, giving the app a broader role than vehicle access alone.

What to expect

The app is most useful when you own a compatible Tesla vehicle or Tesla home energy product. Remote actions depend on the car or system being able to connect, so response times and available controls can vary with network access and hardware support. Its rating of 3.6457636 shows a mixed user response across a large review base, making the individual vehicle and energy setup important when judging whether it fits your needs.
