Tesla App 4.43.5 Release Notes

Early Access Program

Available Worldwide

Tesla may soon offer an “Early Access Program” that allows customers to sign up and receive early access versions of FSD. In exchange, users would need to share data with Tesla, such as usage logs and vehicle data.

According to the document that was found in this version of the app by Tesla_App_iOS, the data Tesla collects about your vehicle while a part of the Early Access Program is different than the regular data Tesla collects. Presumably, this data will be a lot more detailed and would include everything mentioned in Tesla’s Shared Data analytics that are available under Controls > Software > Shared Data.

We expect Tesla to let you sign up for the early access program directly in the app in the future.

This update includes several improvements to Tesla’s Service experience. When images are required, the text will now appear in red, Service History will now show badges on the filter icon when filters are active, and you can now tap on service details when a service is in progress.

Third Party App Activity

Tesla Third Party App Activity feature in update 4.43.5
Available Worldwide

If you’ve granted access to third-party apps, the Tesla app now provides a detailed activity report for each one. Previously, the app only displayed which third-party apps had access to your data and what data they could access.

With this update, the app now shows the total amount of data requested by third parties and provides a breakdown per app. It also displays the amount of data requested and the last access date per app, giving you more visibility into your data.

You can view your third-party activity by tapping the menu button on the top right, tapping on your profile photo and then choose Security & Privacy and then Third Party Apps.

Battery Health

Tesla Battery Health feature in update 4.43.5
Available Worldwide

Tesla has added a new Battery Health section under the Service menu. Tapping on it will show the state of your battery.

This appears to be a much simpler test than the thorough battery test that Tesla added in vehicle update 2025.8. If you suspect potential battery issues or serious degradation and have received update 2025.8, you can run Tesla’s battery test under Controls > Service > Battery Health.

Note: This option requires software update 2025.8 or higher.

Tesla continues to add more code to the Cybertruck's suspension adjustment in the app with this update.

However, in addition to the Cybertruck, the Model S and Model X may also support the feature, according to Tesla_App_iOS.

Since code and images for suspension controls are already showing up in the production version of the app, it's possible it's already being tested by employees. We expect that we'll see this feature enabled soon.

Improved Tesla Assistant

Tesla continues to improve thier AI-based assistant in the Tesla app. In the last update, Tesla added the ability for the assistant to answer questions related to your specific vehicle. The information that the assistant had was fairly limited, but Tesla has now expanded this to include much more.

With this update, you'll now be able to ask many more questions that are specific to your vehicles. These questions include things such as, "How many miles are on my vehicle?" or "Does my car have a heat pump?". You can also ask what software version your vehicle is on, whether you have FSD, or what version of FSD your vehicle has.

A converse mode, likely powered by Grok may also be coming in the future that could allow you to talk naturally with Tesla's AI assist. The string "SUPPORT_BOT_CONVERSE" was spotted by Tesla_App_iOS while decompiling the app.

Now that Tesla Assist can answer many common questions related to your vehicles, we expect Tesla to soon start pushing this feature to help reduce service questions.
