- Tesla owners using an iPhone or Apple Watch
- Worth noticing
- The page says Watch requests can run while the iPhone is locked, but the iPhone must remain nearby and holds the vehicle key.
Field notes
The page distinguishes opening the powered trunk from closing it, which it treats as a separate action. It also describes a per-door control model and says the charge-port-cover control is not a signal that a cable can be safely removed. Compatibility varies by vehicle, and the displayed app captures were made in the iOS Simulator rather than with a connected car.
