Under your supervision, Full Self-Driving (Supervised) can drive your Tesla almost anywhere. It will start from a parked position, make lane changes, select forks to follow your navigation route, navigate around other vehicles and objects, make left and right turns and park at your destination. You and anyone you authorize must use additional caution and remain attentive. It does not make your vehicle autonomous. Do not become complacent.

Full Self-Driving (Supervised) is enabled on your vehicle. To use the feature, press the Start Self-Driving button on the UI, or press the right scroll wheel button once. You can disable Full Self-Driving (Supervised) in Self-Driving Settings.

Your selected keyboard language will also select the language used for dictation. Tap the international keyboard button to change keyboard and dictation language, without changing voice command language. Tap the mic icon in the keyboard to dictate.

Swipe right on tracks in Apple Music or Spotify to add them to the queue. In Apple Music, tap and hold on a track to add or remove from Favorites. In Spotify, swipe left to add or remove from Liked Songs.

Personalize your Tesla avatar with window tints, custom wraps, and license plates. Use one of many preloaded designs or create and upload your own using a USB flash drive to make your vehicle unique. Go to App Launcher > Toybox > Paint Shop or tap the paint or license plate button in Controls > Software.

Choose and name your pet by going to Controls > Display > Customize Pet Mode.

Passengers in rear seats can now view and interact with maps on the rear display while your Tesla navigates a route. Tap the maps icon from the rear display to follow along.

This update includes important security fixes and improvements.

Unleash your inner artist with the enhanced Sketchpad, now supporting stickers and emojis. Save your sketches to access them in the Mobile App and share. Requires Mobile App version 4.55.6 or later.

FSD (Supervised) will now determine the appropriate speed based on a mix of driver profile, speed limit, and surrounding traffic. However, the speed determined by the FSD (Supervised) may differ from the speed limit, and the driver is responsible for controlling the vehicle speed at all times.

• Introduced new Speed Profile SLOTH, which comes with lower speeds & more conservative lane selection than CHILL.
• Introduced new speed profile MAD MAX, which comes with higher speeds and more frequent lane changes than HURRY.
• Driver profile now has a stronger impact on behavior. The more assertive the profile, the higher the max speed.
• Right scroll-wheel up/down now adjusts Speed Profile setting rather than your precise max speed offset selection in mph/kph.

Trips are now in the Energy app, where you can create and manage multiple trips to track energy usage across different drives, routes, or conditions.

Go to App Launcher > Energy > Trips.

• Start Self-Driving with a tap of the touchscreen from Park, or any time during your drive.
• Adjust settings like the Speed Profile and Arrival Options directly from the Self-Driving visualization on the center display.
