Tesla has updated its Android mobile app to debut widgets, to let owners quickly view vehicle status such as charge status, Sentry Mode and lock/unlock status.
The Tesla app update is version 4.2.0-693 in Google Play. The release notes also detail the following:
- Solar and Powerwall supports Tesla-maintained utility rate plans. Utility rate plans now support seasons, multiple peak periods, and buy & sell energy prices
- Powerwall’s Time-Based Control mode supports the updated rate plans to more accurately use energy from Powerwall when power is expensive and charge from other sources when power is at its cheapest
The addition of widgets for Android in the Tesla app brings a feature that recently came to the Tesla iPhone app, which similarly added widgets as well. The design features on Android look similar to the widgets on iPhone, however, the latter recently gained some one-tap button control shortcuts.
