Tesla Adds New Offline Commands For Easier Vehicle Control

Tesla is rolling out a new commands feature that allows owners to perform various actions without requiring an internet connection.

The new offline commands feature enables Tesla owners to carry out tasks such as unlocking the doors, opening the trunk or frunk, and controlling the HVAC system directly from their smartphone.

This eliminates the previous dependency on an internet connection to remotely control certain vehicle functions.

This development is particularly beneficial for Tesla owners in areas with limited or no cellular coverage, such as rural locations.

Previously, features like remote start were often unavailable in these situations due to the need for an internet connection to communicate with the car.

The new Bluetooth-based offline commands feature addresses this limitation, providing a more reliable and potentially faster way for owners to interact with their vehicles.

However, it’s important to note that the offline commands functionality will not be available for legacy Model S and Model X vehicles produced before 2021.

Tesla is also requiring users to have the latest version (4.38 or newer) of the Tesla mobile app to take advantage of this new feature.

While remote vehicle control is not a groundbreaking concept in the automotive industry, Tesla’s implementation of offline commands sets it apart from many traditional automakers that still require an internet connection for similar functionalities.

This move by Tesla enhances the overall connectivity and usability of its vehicles, providing owners with greater flexibility and control, even in areas with limited network coverage.
