Tesla App 4.62.0: iPad and iPhone Duo, FSD Referrals, X Money

Version 4.62.0 of the Tesla app introduces the following features and updates.

iPad / iPhone Duo Support

The update adds support for tablets and foldable phones, including the iPad and iPhone Duo. On most screens, the app now spans the full width of the device with large visualizations.

On larger devices, vehicle visualizations are now almost identical to the ones inside the vehicle. They include an ambient background, vehicle reflections, and the buttons to open the frunk/trunk, charge port, and lock/unlock the vehicle move onto the visualization instead of being buttons in Quick Actions.

The Show PSI button now appears under the visualization instead of in Controls.

While not all panels are optimized for larger screens yet, major ones already benefit, including Climate, Location, Self Driving, Summon, and Charging.

FSD Referrals

The app includes code and phrases that suggest Tesla will offer FSD referrals in the future. Referring customers to subscribe to FSD will earn you a free month or months of FSD for any of the vehicles on your account. The update also adds front and back images of a FSD referral “coin.”

New phrases found in the app include:

• “Select the vehicle you’d like to apply the Full Self-Driving (Supervised) trial to”
• “If someone subscribes with your link, pick which vehicle gets the reward”
• “Confirm Vehicle for Reward”

X Money Support

Tesla is planning to add support for X Money in the app. Users will be able to set up X Money as a payment method to purchase items in the Tesla Shop, pay for Supercharging, or subscribe to FSD.

Virtual Queue

This update includes small changes to Tesla’s virtual queue feature that hint at final tweaks before a wider launch. Tesla is currently testing its Virtual Queue at five locations in the U.S.

Share Wall Connector

Today, the app allows sharing vehicles and Tesla Energy with other Tesla users. The update expands this by letting you share your Wall Connector with other users as well.

“After joining, you can charge with this Wall Connector and manage its charging settings. You can leave any time. The owner can view charging activity related to you, such as charge history.”

This upcoming feature will let users share their Wall Connector with up to five users, instead of having to share their whole Tesla Energy site, which includes the home’s address and controls of their Powerwall and solar panels.
