Tesla App 4.5.1 Release Notes

Charge Stats

Tesla Charge Stats feature in update 4.5.1
Available Worldwide

This is an undocumented change in this release.

With app update 4.5.1 Tesla is adding a new Charge Stats section.

You can now track how much you pay to charge your Tesla and the savings when compared to a similar gasoline vehicle.

Charge Stats shows your vehicle's charging statistics over the last 31 days. It'll break down each charging session to show you how much you charged, the cost and the type of charging, whether it was at home, at a Supercharger or Other.

An 'Other' charging sessinon refers to any non-Supercharging session that is not at your home location.

In order to figure out costs of charging and savings, Tesla automatically uses electricity costs and gasoline prices in your state.

The costs for Supercharging are exact as Tesla knows exactly how much you were charged.

You're also able to customize your electricity cost at home and the electricity cost for 'Other' charging sessions.

Note: The car must be on software version 2021.44.25 or higher and you must have data sharing enabled in the vehicle.

Tesla App 4.46.6 Release Notes

Grok Log In & Notifications

Tesla has added deep links for xAI in this update. Deep links are similar to regular links like https://tesla.com, but instead of using the scheme https:// or http://, they use a custom scheme, such as tesla://.

These links are used to open apps on the device, instead of websites. For example, tesla://shop opens the Tesla Shop within the Tesla app. When a user taps a notification from the Tesla app, it opens one of these deep links to direct the user to a specific part of the app.

This update includes code that would allow Tesla to send a notification that takes the user to any x.ai page via the Tesla app. This will likely be used for Tesla to send a notification to the user to authenticate the Grok app through the screen above.

This update essentially adds support for the Tesla Grok app, allowing users to log in to Grok and receive notifications on their phone from xAI / Grok.

Tesla App 4.46.5 Release Notes

Restrict Location Visibility

Primary Tesla account holders can now hide the vehicle’s location visibility for secondary account holders in the Tesla app. This setting can be adjusted per secondary driver under Security & Drivers > Manage Drivers.

Note: Enabling this setting will hide the Location section of the app for the secondary driver, which also means they won’t be able to use it for other features, such as viewing nearby Superchargers or previewing a route.

New Charging Mode

Tesla New Charging Mode feature in update 4.46.5
Undocumented
Undocumented

Rate-Based Charging appears to be a new feature that will enable the Wall Connector to automatically charge the vehicle via the Powerwall when electricity prices are low.

This enables the Powerwall to discharge and put its energy into the vehicle, and then charge back up at low electricity rates, saving owners money.

The string powerwall_x_wall_connector_rate_based_charging_min_hours_charging_set implies a new future setting where the “Desired Charging Duration“ can be set, allowing more control over how long the vehicle charges in this new mode.

It’s unclear if this is related to this new mode, but there’s also a new string called wallConnectorSupports4HourChargingFactory which requires a minimum firmware version of 25.26 for the Wall Connector, which hasn’t been released yet.

Robotaxi Siri Integration

The iOS permission alert string “Robotaxi allows you to use Siri to interact with your ride“ was found in some of the modules that are likely shared between the Tesla app and the Robotaxi app.

This implies a potential future Robotaxi app update could add support for Siri commands to control the Robotaxi, for example, “Hey Siri, Open Trunk“ or ”Hey Siri, Pull Over”.

Robotaxi Calendar Integration
