While Tesla has an official offering in Apple’s App Store, if you want to control your car with your Apple Watch, you’ll need to download a third-party platform called Watch App for Tesla. Here’s how this app helps you control your Tesla right from your wrist.
How I Control My Tesla With an Apple Watch
Kim Hansen, a Tesla Model 3 owner, initially built the Watch App for Tesla to make life easier for himself. After sharing his fledgling project and receiving overwhelming interest, Hansen submitted it to Apple “on a whim” and it was approved within an hour.
The app is now available in the App Store for $7.99. Users appreciate the ease of use of the Watch App for Tesla on their wrist.
With the Watch app for Tesla, you can leave your iPhone in your pocket and control a number of key Tesla functions with just a few taps on your Apple Watch or a quick Siri command.
