The android app of Tesla is finally updated with a function that IOS has for months

In Spain, most users use Android mobiles. This is not in all countries, but it is true that iOS is not majority, although more and more people opt for an Apple mobile, especially the youngest. Nor is our country one of the most selling electric cars, but Tesla has a position now dominant in this section.

The owners of these cars that use Apple’s mobile Because most functions come to these models before those who use Android. A good example is the possibility of opening the trunk using the UWB chip of our mobile in the event that you have it simply standing behind.

Another function that was already in the application for iOS and that now reaches Android is the option of Be able to consult the clips that the car has recorded from the mobilewithout having to enter the vehicle. This is very useful if we want to check if something has happened in the last hours but we are not close.

This function integrates both the recordings of the Sentinel modewhich is the recording system that is coordinated with the alarm and Dashcam, That is, the recordings that we make voluntarily by pressing a button or that the car makes in circulation when, for example, it receives an impact.

To be able to see these recordings we only have to update the Tesla application in the Google Play Store to the last available one and open the app. Within the menu we have to enter the option Security and drivers Then select the first option, called Dashcam viewer. In this section we will have the clips of the sentinel mode and Dashcam itself separately.

If we want we can go directly to the specific event by clicking on the red button once we have entered the reproduction of a clip. Also We can save the file on the mobile, To be able to send it, store it, etc. Finally, We can erase the clips that we do not want directly sliding from right to left, as we do in applications such as Gmail.

This function allows you to have much greater control of what happens to the car without having to be close. It is even possible to see remote recordings Since the sentinel mode implies having contracted premium connectivity, which is the one that gives 4G Internet connection to the vehicle.

This connectivity is paid, costing 9.99 euros per month, But it is not mandatory to use the vehicle. Of course, in the event that we do not hire it we will not have this new function in the application since we will not have access to the sentinel mode.
