The Trip Planner in the app no longer assumes that your trip will begin immediately. New in this version, the app will now let you pick the start day and start time for your trip.

If you prefer, you can choose an arrival time instead, and the app will calculate what time you have to leave in order to have enough time to travel to your destination, including all charging stops.

Tesla Profiles are created when you tie your Driver Profile to your Tesla account. This lets Tesla sync any profile changes to the cloud, which not only creates a backup of your driver profile but also allows syncing across vehicles.

With this update, you can now reset your Tesla profile by navigating to Profile > Account > Tesla Profile. It appears to be aimed at troubleshooting potential syncing issues or if the profile is holding on to incorrect data. The awards for the Model 3 and Model Y remain the same at 1,500 for buyers and 2,000 for the referrer.

In this update, Tesla references several phrases that could point at upcoming features to the Tesla app. The most interesting references include Boombox v2, Self Park Stand By Mode and Release Notes Videos.

Self Park Stand By Mode sounds similar to Tesla's Park Seek feature that has been mentioned in the past. These findings are thanks to Tesla_App_iOS.
