Would be 5 stars but for one (literally) painful flaw. Watchla is great for using a smartwatch for Tesla tasks, like opening the trunk, when your hands are too full to reach your smartphone. BUT…it often takes too long to connect to Bluetooth, and I find myself hitting a command twice before it registers. Today, I hit “Open Trunk” twice. The trunk opened, and I leaned over to load groceries into the hatch. But suddenly the trunk lowered, with the edge of it hitting me high and hard on my forehead. So, my request of the deveioper is to ensure that a command doesn’t register twice when chosen twice in quick succession.

App works great. I’ve had this app for over a year now and it works very well. I’ve found that if the watch can’t wake up the car then the phone app usually can’t also. Best investment Sofar.

Unreliable. The app used to work fine. However, after a number of recent updates is become very unreliable. When I finally have it working, it is inconsistent and does not update the battery percentage. -Even when the Watchla app on my iPhone shows the correct percentage. It just does not sync. Always shows the same. Most of the time the app keeps spinning on the watch.

Great app, no issues. I’ve had Watchla for 2 weeks now, and it does everything I need it do, and does it well. Ive had no major issues other than the occasional short lag, which I don’t find problematic. Well worth the $7.00.

Works as intended. Works when all requirements are met. Need to, essentially, re configure watch credentials after each app update. Updates have been happening often lately. About twice a week on average. Kinda annoying but works well when you’ve got that taken cared off. I can operate vehicle with just the watch key and w/o my phone/card on hand.

Watchia. So its very slow to react with the car. Takes a few seconds to think about it. Eventually will work. If you set your watch to have the watchia commands on your front screen they do not display. Even though it shows you can add them it fails to show on the screen. Be very cool if that works. I was hoping on the new update it would have corrected the problem as it does not. You have to search for the watch to find the app to make the commands. So if the speed was fast if the display actually worked and what you purchased actually gave you what you paid for it be a great app. I probably will be searching for something better and drop this one. I do not care to purchase apps and only get half promises. This is a half promised app.

Constant maintenance. I would love it if this thing just worked, but it always takes work on my part to get it to work someone. Almost every day I have to re-login because it gives me a warning that it needs to re-authenticate. It’s also very slow to use any of the action buttons, the one thing that does seem to work well is the digital key. This thing would be a lot better if it was a bit more polished.

Just okay. Works great when its working. Often times is buggy and it’s a hit or miss. It’s frustrating when not working and just gives you an error and doesn’t tell you what to do to get it back on line properly.

Bluetooth doesn’t always connect. I have 2 Tesla’s and setup this app to connect to both of them. However, I’m having difficulty in getting the bluetooth to connect to them on a consistent basis. After adding the vehicles, the app on my watch says bluetooth is connected but when I switch to my other car, it shows disconnected, even if I’m sitting in the car. Then I can’t have it connect to either, even when I’m within the Watchla app on my watch. I tried force closing the app also. The only thing that seems to work when I can’t get bluetooth to connect is restarting my watch altogether. Another thing is that you have to explicitly select which vehicles bluetooth you want to connect to, whereas another Watch app that I’ve tried will connect to both my cars without having to choose. Of course, I expect to have to choose which car when I want to send a command, but I don’t want to have to select a car just for unlocking purposes.

Do what you need to do. Have all the basic function that 99% of people need. I do wish they can put an image of my car in the interface, should look little more appealing.

Great when it works. Mainly use it to “Turn on Climate” or to open /close trunk for my dogs to load up on driveway while I’m still in the house. When it works it’s like magic, but way too often it fails and gives error, requiring a second (or more ) attempt. I don’t regret paying for it, but can’t fully endorse it until it performs more consistently.

It used to be good, but it's been a disappointment since the API update. I used to love using this, but since they updated to the latest version and Tesla API it's been disappointing. The complication never works/updates, the app forces you to authenticate multiple times, and it keeps telling me to sign in when I've already done it multiple times. Overall it's just been more disappointing as time goes on.

It’s not really working now is it. Most important aspect of this app is that it is updated and that it allows you to inlock the Tesla, the rest is bonus. Well the app does not really show updated miles on the watch and does not quite allow unlocking either. Not quite because it does so 50% of the time after a delay while messing with the door handle the other 50 it just does not work. The watch does update the miles only after poking at the app a bit, exactly what is needed to update is unclear. So useful? Nope, not for 10 bucks

Great watch app! May have to reset Apple Watch if Bluetooth not connecting. I initially installed the app and Bluetooth did not work. I restarted car, phone, Watch, reinstalled the app, none worked. Finally I reinstalled Watch OS again, Bluetooth works. App works great so far!

I requested a feature and they actually put it in the app. First, it’s the cheapest Tesla watch app available which puts it in a very favorable spot. But what put it over the top for me was when they implemented a feature I requested maybe a month after I requested it. Great devs. Great app. Great price.

Almost never works.. Constantly having to sign in, reset, uninstall then reinstall. One of the reasons I got this app was for the add ons to custom watch faces. But almost every morning they’re gone and it’ll take the rest of the day to figure out what went wrong this time to get them back. When it does work it is extremely slow. Takes forever to complete a command. The motto for iPhone and Apple in general is “it just works”. Well this app doesn’t. Don’t waste your money. If I were to do it over I wouldn’t even spend $.99 on this app.

Most frustrating app ever. Unquestionably the most frustrating app I have ever used. Frequently unable to connect to my car even though I’m home and it’s parked in the garage. Constantly directing me to to reauthenticate the app. Virtual key on the watch rarely works and also requires frequent resetting. Only once have the phone and watch app both worked. It’s usually one or the other. Done with it.

PLEASE DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY. This app does nothing more than the free Tesla app does. It claims to work with Bluetooth commands and has a section where you can turn on certain commands, however, the iPhone says cannot complete this function every time you try to use them. Total waste of money. Also, tried to get support, and you have to download another app to send them a request for help.

It won’t update the car info on the watch. I like the way that my watch is able to control the car and to act like the car key. But the info on the watch doesn’t update automatically and you have to go into the app every time on the phone to update manually. If I would have known this, I wouldn’t buy this app. Hope there is an update to address this issue.

Rarely Works, no support. Have been using for about a month, if you learn the oddly specific order of operations, sometimes the app functions. Mostly you see an extremely delayed state of your car. If you aren’t with your phone, nothing on watch works (defeats the point of a watch app to me). If you want support fixing an issue, forget about it. Disappointed.

Must have app for Tesla owners. I’ve only been using this for a few days buts it’s already a game changer! Controls my Model Y flawlessly and really enhances the overall ownership experience. While it may not have the data or depth that some more advanced apps offer, it has everything you need for general use and the price is unbeatable. The additional Siri voice commands are a massive bonus!

Works well. Had the app for about one month and it works well! Once I added it to my Apple Watch, it works as a substitute for my iPhone to unlock my Model Y. I have used the other icons on the watch app to perform functions such opening the frunk and opening the charge port. Using Siri voice command through my watch usually works with a slight delay.

Error: Missing required parameter: client_id. I would love to rate this higher, but after purchasing the app, I can’t even log in to test the app. After the download completes and clicking the “Sign in with Tesla” button, I immediately receive the aforementioned error[1]. I’m not even given the opportunity to enter any credentials. Until the developer resolves this, I can’t recommend anyone download this. I will update my review once this is resolved [1]Missing required parameter: client_id

Stopped working!. Everything was fine for awhile, but lately, I can’t even get into the app. I keep reading about upgrading to a different version, and that Tesla has changed something, but I have no idea how to go about getting a new app that will work!

Still doesn’t work. I purchased this app primarily for use speaking through watch app to deliver commands to Vehicle. Been almost a year with both Watchla and apple watch support and neither could figure out why the shortcuts are not functioning properly. I really wanted this app to work, but seems like I just donated money here unfortunately.

Bluetooth key works. Installed this on Apple Watch Series 9 and series 4. Set up Bluetooth keys on two Teslas. Both watches can now unlock both Teslas without my iPhone nearby. Walkaway lock works for the series 9 and not on the series 4 watch, just as was described by the developer. Very worthwhile watch app to serve as a back up key when my phone and key card are not immediately available.

Works… now it doesn’t…can’t find my Tesla. I got it, set it up. It has worked fine for a few months. Right before Christmas, it stopped working and hasn’t worked since. I have deleted and reinstalled app multiple times. It tells me my Tesla is not found. Log out and log back in. This has been the same story month after month. Something has changed. Good luck, I am about to move on. 🚽

Updating earlier Bad Review from Ytsud. This does everything including let you drive the car without your iPone or Tesla card. You can open the doors and the put it drive. I originally could do everything but drive the car. The app developer contacted me directly and made suggestions that enabled me to complete the process. This is a wonderful backup option if you forget the card or your phone. There support department was a big help.

Frequent fail. Every other week the app tells me I have to do something to keep it working. Right now it wants to authenticate, but it doesn’t do that just puts me in an endless loop. When it works it’s great when it doesn’t work it’s not great and the really bad thing is it’s not dependable.

Only so-so. Don’t expect the same seamless connection to your Tesla as you get with your phone. The features only work if you open the app on your watch first. All of us who have made our phones there “key” expect a pretty seamless experience when they approach their Tesla. The Bluetooth automatically unlocks the vehicle. With the Watchla app, you have to open the app first then let load and connect with the car. So yes, it works but it’s not a great replacement for the Tesla phone app.

Okay start. This thing is slow and buggy but it does with a lot of the time. They really need to improve performance with the connection to the car and the watch features don’t always work! Update please and fix your bugs.

Fantastic app. It’s working now just fine. I think it’s a great addition. I recommend this for any user. It’s cool it works and it’s quick so you don’t have to pull out your phone. Love it!!!

I can leave my phone behind now!. When I leave my house, I can just use my watch to open and start my 2018 Tesla Model 3. This app makes my life so much more convenient. Keep up the great work, app developers! Thank you very much for creating this very useful tool!

Stopped working. I purchased this app because I wanted a backup just incase I lose my phone and forgot my wallet. Downloaded the app and followed all the instructions and tested operation on my new model X and it worked for several days and then I noticed that it kept on failing to send a command and it would just give me an error message. The app couldn’t even open a door or the charge port. I then deleted the app and reinstalled it and it still didn’t work, so I have requested a refund through Apple. I just wanted an app to work nothing fancy and it failed. It was installed on Apple Watch Ultra and iPhone 12 all upto date iOS. The search goes on, Happy New Year!!

Swipe. I think a swipe between cars would be useful ao a user can switch the controls between cars more easily instead of switching the car under preferences

Gets better and better. I downloaded this early on in its development and it was so bad that I took it off my watch. It took too long to wake the car and was unreliable. A few months later I tried it again and it was marginally better. But the updates kept coming and it steadily became more reliable with shorter lags. It’s now a truly practical and useful watch app. The developer is doing a lot of work on this and it shows. This will soon become a go-to app and it’s exceptionally competitively priced. Give it a try!

Super simple to use, give my Apple Watch super powers!. Easy controls, face widgets are great and it just works. I can leave my phone behind and get in my car no problem.

Awesome is back. Rewriting this review and giving 5 stars. The virtual key issue for the Apple Watch is now fixed. Great job dev team. I think opening the virtual key addition page via safari browser did the trick. Also a nice UI addition to use safari browser to complete the virtual key addition was amazingly executed. Great job a must recommend app for Tesla users who wants to control their car using their Apple Watch.

Constantly asking to reauthenticate. Whenever I open the app it tells me to authenticate my watch or set up a virtual key. I have done this so many times. It doesn’t seem to know if this has been done already so just tells you to do it again. It sorta works for Siri Shortcuts (the reason I got it) but usually the shortcut times out the first time and works the second, so it’s barely more convenient than just opening the Tesla app

Good but needs refinement. Once installed and configured properly, this has some very useful features. However, I had issues with the new API (v3.5.5) which a work around was identified to address the “No vehicle found…” issue. Hopefully that will be corrected in an update. I also haven’t been able to get the Homelink command to work (when the other commands have worked), but will keep trying. Seems it is simply a toggle to use (or not use) homelink, but my expectation was that it would work like the Tesla iOS app and open the garage door.

BLUETOOTH IS WORKING AGAIN!. Mainly bought this app to use it for watch bluetooth use. Well the bluetooth function went down with the latest update. It wasnt working for a little bit and i couldnt find any information on it. It just stopped working. FIXED NOW AND IT WORKs! I wish the developer would update the app so people will Know when the bluetooth is down and that they are working on a fix. Thank you Watchla !

Adds Key Redundancy increasing reliability. The Watchla Tesla remote key app’s dual keys resolve the unreliability of the iPhone key. Having two keys has smoothed out problems when the app goes in the background. A practical fix for a common issue.

Amazing app and Bluetooth wake can be faster. Overall I’m very happy and excited about this app. The UI is very clean and essential features are all there. The price point is also reasonable compared to the alternatives. One thing I suggest improving on is the latency waking the vehicle over Bluetooth. There is a 5-10 sec lag compared to waking the vehicle via iPhone. I suppose this is due to Apple Watch saving energy and this app trying to reduce BLE polling. Having a preference setting that allows a bit more aggressive polling will help users make the trade offs.

This app is useless. I wanted to love this app so bad but it’s useless. I always get “Vehicle Wake Error” messages and then the app spends several minutes trying to wake my car. For all that, I could fish my phone from my pocket or handbag and just access my vehicle’s controls much quicker. Also the controls on my watch are showing my car is open but my Tesla app is showing my vehicle is locked. It just doesn’t work. I want my $5 back…

Looks great but limited functionality. I tried out other apps and prefer the look of this one. Also no phantom drain on the watch which was a deal breaker for me with other apps. Unfortunately, I cannot use any of the functionality like open doors, lock car etc because I get a 403 error upon any button push. So it’s really just a car key. Will wait a bit to see if this gets fixed. If not, on to the next app. Driving the car upon approaching with watch works fantastically.

Amazing Watch Apple with no subscription needed!. Amazing interface that just works! Now I can leave my phone at home thanks to this app. I love how I can just pay for the app and I don’t need a subscription. Thanks for such a solid app! ⚡️

Great tool - It worked when I needed it.. Within and hour of adding this App to my watch I put my wallet with the keycard and phone in my gym bag and put them in the frunk. I walked around to take my bike out then closed the rear trunk. The phone lost the signal with the car and everything was locked. So great to be able to use this app on my watch to unlock the car.

Great overall but still needs some improvement. This app is great overall and ok would recommend especially for the price. I do however wish the iPhone widgets had more customization options. There is no as much detail as the stock I like the bigger car showing on the widget but there is not enough detail.

Flush Interface, Stable!. One must appreciate the slick interface and straight forward functionality of this Tesla Watch Component, it’s as good as the official app, and acts as the Bluetooth Key when your phone is not around so you can unlock and operate your car WITHOUT the phone.

Edit: wasn’t working right. Amending my review, because the customer support is great so far. Got it working on a beta program so fingers crossed. I just bought this app and installed it and followed all the instructions. The watch app doesn’t connect. Keeps asking to authenticate through the iPhone app. Which I did And the GitHub troubleshooting solutions were useless

Simple & Works. Great little utility- really handy when you dont have your phone with you. It can take a while to wake/load connection with car but suspect that’s as much to do with Tesla API than the app itself.

Difficult setup, not fully functioning. I’ve just down loaded and installed this and companion iOS app on new iPhone and watch with current systems. The watch app will lock and unlock the car, and open the frunk and trunk and open/ the charge port. NO other commands work and after a long pause return an error 403. (Really helpful !) If you want to submit a request for support you have to sign up with GitHub to get a response. This app hasn’t been a joy so far, neither the support arrangements .

waste of money and time. constantly fails to execute commands when you need them . constantly needs to be re-paired with iphone. dont waste your time or money on this useless app

Doesn’t work with current API. Despite two releases after buying the ap and not realising it doesn’t work, it still doesn’t work. Based on consumer law in Aus - they should pull down the ap until it actually operates as per its promise. Only a matter of time before they cop it.

Not working. Can I have my money back please - this is totally unreliable and won’t work at all this morning. I am sitting other car - the Tesla phone app is working fine and this just gives me endless error messages. Appeared to work when I set it up last night for the first time - but now no good. Need these things to be reliable or they are of no value.

Never works when you need it. App just doesn’t do what it’s meant to do. Deleting this one and will try something else. By the time the app responds, it would be faster to go back inside the house and get your phone to unlock the car or do anything else. One star.

Good app but too much phantom drainage. Great app but is causing heavy phantom drain. Phantom drain stopped when I disabled wake vehicle in the settings. Hopefully dev can fix it.

The most useless thing you can buy for your Tesla. Takes forever to wake up. Your phone, watch and Siri do a much better job. If you still have $9.99 burning a hole in your pocket, buy some cup holders or some other junk, may be more useful!!

Money Wasted. Unfortunately the app isn’t quite there yet. The bugs and connectivity errors are a massive inconvenience, which defeats the purpose of the app. The battery percentage in the watch complication does not update live and the overall app doesn’t justify the cost of $9.99.

Often does not work. Frequent errors.. The App is temperamental. Often does not work. Frequent errors. Has now disappeared from my watch. Disappointed.

Rarely works. Worked ok when I first got the app but the last few months it won’t unlock the car. Have tried uninstalling and reinstalling app and no difference. Will be moving to another app.

Must now have WatchOS 8.0 or above!. BEWARE! Since the update of Watchla this morning , my Apple watch no longer will see or run the Watchla app. After further investigation, I realized that my second generation Apple Watch can not run any WatchOS later than version 6.3. Watchla now will only run on Apple Watch with WatchOS version 8.0 or above. It was working fine before Watchla made this update. But not anymore. Do not buy this app if your Apple Watch cannot run WatchOS 8.0 or above.

Great app. App works perfectly on my Apple Watch and with my model y. Really good value for the price. Developer is also very active and responds to any questions.

Fix it please. Like everyone else complaining at the moment. Since the updates the app is now useless.

Apple Watch Series 5 does not work as a key anymore. Before the last update my Apple Watch used to work as a key to open and start the car. Since the new api was introduced Apple Watch does not work as a key and you cannot start the car. They only way around this is to use the commmands on the watch. And you can drive the car using the remote start function. However Tesla reminds you that you need a key.

No longer working after the recent update.. As the title suggest, won’t wake up the vehicle, consistent communication error. Worse then useless.

Good but…. Works quite well but there is definitely a problem getting information shown on watch complication to mirror that of the application on the watch app and the phone app. It’s like the complication data is not updating/syncing.

Not connecting to Tesla. I’ve installed and tried to use the app - doesn’t work and says there’s a connection error

App causing 470 pings a day to the car.. Just finished a conversation with a Tesla tech and it looks like the this app is pinging the car 470 times a day, they were very concerned and asked me to reset the password. That helped to reduce the daily pings to 200. I have now removed the app from the phone and Watch to see if all the unnecessary pings are gone. Good app but it basically may void your car warranty if some parts fail due to excessive ping. Be careful! Hope you have a good liability policy.

Great watch app for Tesla. Works very well to cover basic needs. The direct Bluetooth link has saved me a couple of times when I have left my phone inside the house and best of all no need for a monthly subscription!!

Never launch. After update. My Apple Watch 3 version 8 could not launch the app on Apple Watch. It still can open door and I can drive the car but if I want to lock the car, I am not able to do because I do not see the command. Please solve this.

Brilliant. Best feature for surfing and leaving the phone behind.

Worked well until Tesla updated settings for 3rd party. I had this up and running until late last year when Tesla updated their privacy settings for third party apps — I have been unable to access the app. I have reached out for support numerous times but have been ignored. AVOID. Don’t waste your money.

Crapla. Takes ages to load, meanwhile you unlock with your iPhone. Also Siri Shortcuts don’t work. Avoid this app.

Must have app for Tesla owners. Firstly, it’s not super expensive and no monthly subscription needed. It’s primarily a watchOS app not an iOS app, but it has all essentials covered, and easy to use. I love the siri commands, especially to open and close trunk when carrying shopping bags in both hands !!!

waste of money. not stable the watch app not working properly

App not responding. There’s a note in the app troubleshooting section that says there are issues following Teslas update in November. The es obviously have t been resolved because I can’t connect to the vehicle. Why is this app available to purchase if it doesn’t work?

Broken complications. The app has gone through a bumpy ride recently to fix authentication issues. Still remains that complications are not fully working. Ie the icons for them are not showing up but are blanks as well as the battery indicator is not refreshed. Did a full tr-install to try and fix it and after a couple of days it was broken again.

Short cut toggles. The short cut toggles you could add to watch faces to open and close the trunk or see battery percentage no longer work.

Doesn’t work. Downloaded the app, frustrated it didn’t work, seems as if Tesla updating API has impacted the app which renders it functionless

Doesn’t seem to work since update to new API. I have an Apple Watch Series 6, and while the app worked prior to the update to the new API, I can’t get it to work as I can’t get the watch app connected to Bluetooth. Anyone else having this problem. While I appreciate that this is a once only charge I only bought the app in December 2023. DEVELOPER can you confirm that this app is not supported for Series 6 watches please. Or I have another problem - user error perhaps. I have been attempting to get the app working a few times until frustration gets the better of me. There seems to be a lot of disgruntled consumers giving feedback to you with little response.

Wont start the car. The Watchla app is great only trouble is it gets you into the car but you can’t drive it.

Ver 3.5.1. Not working on my Apple Watch after update Keep asking commands confirming even though disabled tap

I like the app but there’s a lag. when I want to use the app it needs to get ready I ask it to open the trunk, nothing for a few minutes

Awesome. Allows me to run without the phone. Well worth it!!

Barely works. It's so broken. It looses authentication then gets glitchy and you can't re-authenticate. Randomly you rely on the watch key, only for it to have disappeared. Can't believe I spent money on it tbh

Draining my car’s battery. The app is phantom draining my battery to around 3% in 6 hours when the car is parked inside the covered garage.

Great App. Works well for me always reliable.

App not Response all time. Why did you have to messed it up when something too perfect. Now it’s so much delaying, lack of respond. please fix ASAP.

Great App. Good compilations, easy setup and seems secure since it use’s a Token to sign into your Tesla account.

Error. Can’t use after updated iOS

Works as it should.. Easy UI, works as it was intended. No surprises here. Simple and effective.

Used to be great. Several updates ago the app simply became useless, now it’s always saying that I have to setup Watch Key, which I have, multiple times, waste of money!

Like it a lot. Today’s update added widget to iPhones with iOS 16. For the battery, my car is in kilometres, but it is showing it in miles (exact calculated number), only on the Lock Screen, on the watch and app it is in kilometres.

Ne fonctionne pas. Après avoir suivi tous les instructions d’installation, la commande vocal sur montre ne fonctionne pas et aucune accès à du support technique.

Proactive Developers. This app does what the others do but are better priced and because they are proactive. You can tell when they continually update their product. You could Literally chat with the Watchla team on Twitter . I wish all apps was this interactive and proactive . Good jobs guys worth every dollar and some 🤩

Stopped working. After recent update by Tesla, this app seems to be dead. The car completely ignores the watch. I've tried deleting, reinstalling and resetting, no luck. Dead. Wait to see of they fix this before buying.

Excellente application.. Tout fonctionne à merveille et ça nous permet dorénavant de contrôler notre Tesla du bout des doigts ! Excellent rapport qualité/prix.

Amazing. Great app and not expensive. Very happy and now include watch as a car key.

Nice design, but couple flaws and devs never respond. Devs never respond to anything.

Mise à jour!!!. Depuis la nouvelle mise à jour l’application ne communique pas bien avec l’auto ou ne se mets pas à jour souvent car le montant du kilométrage et le pourcentage de batterie est pas le même que mon application Tesla ??? Svp j’aimerais savoir pourquoi? Merci Marc

Was a wonderful app but stop working since the last Tesla firmware upgrade 2021.36 and later. Wonderful app

Unable to use watchla app with Tesla app. Always get unable to wake the car and don’t work. to use watchla app with Tesla app. Always get unable to wake the car and don’t work

Great backup. Best alternative if you don’t carry the keycard on you and have a Cellular Apple Watch. Definitely has come in handy, plus has a very nice UI.

New update render app useless. It says the api has changed and I need to update in order to work. Went through the whole process. Now I have to use my key and connect from scratch everytime I use it!!! I have 2 cars, and switching between them was seamless before. Now I don’t even bother because it never works without a key card. And the shortcuts that I put in my watch face have all gone blank. I can tap and open the app with it, but it won’t display anything like battery info. It’s just a blank space.

Garbage don’t waste your money. I have this app never really works when you need it to work .. It’s so slow by the time you have it working you already have your phone to open the doors … Trust me it sucks ….

reasonable priced. it just works, reasonable price and app always have updated, ow with BLUETOOTH!

Error. Got error since the new update: virtual key not setup. Noting work

Apple Watch as a fob and control for your Tesla without the high price. I was looking at another Apple Watch app to control my Tesla. I often go to the car and don’t always have my phone on me. The price of the competitor app put me off a bit. Not only does Watchla allow me to access my Tesla, I can drive with my watch with only Bluetooth enabled. As an added bonus, I can also set up charging, climate, open the trunk and frunk, enable and disable dog mode and more. Much cheaper than getting another Tesla key card or fob. Looking forward to setting up Siri to access for functions. Caveat: according to Watchla website “ In general, it is believed that all Model 3 and Y vehicles are compatible and all refreshed 2021 and later Model S and X vehicles are compatible as well.”

Close the frunk. I have an after market automatic frunk opener. Please program a Siri “close the frunk”

Not working recently. I purchased awhile ago. And it is stop working, even after reinstalling the app.

Developer who knows what they’re doing.. Well earned five stars because this app is to thoroughly well supported by the developer. Has a really solid beta cycle such that you’re not guessing about what’s happening on bug fixes. On top of that, it’s pretty elegant software for a fair price.

Presque parfait !. Les gens de Watchla travaillent fort pour avoir une app génial

Adsterra is the most preferred ad network for those looking for an alternative to AdSense. Adsterra is the ideal choice for new sites with low daily traffic. In order to advertise on the site in Adsterra, like other ad networks, a certain traffic limit, domain age, etc. is required. There are no strict rules. Sign up!

Need a Bluetooth ONLY option. No login whatsoever. This app should consider a Bluetooth only option where user credentials never need to be provided (during setup)

The Bluetooth connection is almost nonexistent. First, it would take forever, then it will stop working saying that could not establish production. I expected much better than this. I am extremely disappointed.

Most of the watch face options are disabled. Barely been using the app for less than a month with the latest iOS, Tesla app on iPhone 15 Pro, Apple Watch 9. Looks like money was wasted on this app!

Was the best Tesla watch app. Loved this app and every bit of it until the new update where widgets just don’t load and cannot connect to the car anymore.

Most buggy and useless app. Utterly useless scam!! I bought it but don’t use!! DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY. I am writing to Apple to blacklist and block this app from cheating people It is always buggy. I am a developer it seems this team doesn’t know what they are doing. Don’t waste your money

Not happy with the app. I had to buy the app twice and it absolutely does not work even after trying all of the fixes. Customer support is non-existent. Strongly recommend to stay away from this app.

Main function works but otherwise ok.. Most useful is open close trunk and funk, unlocking etc but single door openings does not work.

Can’t control vehicle with Siri. I was able to get Watchla to reconnect to my vehicle after removing access on my Tesla account, and then re-adding it. I still can’t, nor have I ever been able to use Siri to control the vehicle.

Broken since update. Don’t waste your money. Used to work fine but not now. My Apple Watch Ultra virtually never updates the range and battery status anymore. I’ve tried for days — reinstalling, signing out and back in and nothing. Switching back to the Remote S app.

GET THIS APP!. Absolutely amazing app. It works perfect. I was very skeptical until I tried it. I will not do without it!

Stopped working with new api. Used to be nice until it stopped working. I had to sign out and now when I sign back in it says no vehicle available. Perhaps it’s because I only want to give access to vehicle commands.

Needs a lot of work. This app constantly kicks you out. I have to sign in too often. I can’t trust it to work if I lock my phone in my car rendering pretty much useless. That is the only reason I got it.

Totally Worthless. Doesn’t work at all. Constantly give error messages that I can’t connect to the car through the phone or the watch app absolutely worthless. Don’t waste your money like I did on this app.

Practical at great price. Works fine. Almost all features functional. Good stuff. Highly recommend

Finally a Tesla Watch App! But…. I have wondered when someone, Tesla or anyone would utilize the AppleWatch as a Tesla Key. This App, in Principle and Concept is just about perfect. However, it has trouble connecting each and every time I try to do anything, open doors, unlock car, open Trunk or Frunk. And I still carry a Key Card just in case, the car tells me all the time, it lost key connection or that is no key connection. Great work in progress, keep pushing it!

Doesn’t work. As soon as I installed Watchla I lost my ability to use voice shortcuts to the car. With STATS watch ap I could. I made sure everything including Bluetooth is all enabled. I complained to Watchla and got no help. Wasted my money

Ruined a perfectly working app. This app was seamless until the API updates came in. Now its totally useless. The developer is trying to fix but seems like every fix introduces another bug.

New version keeps having connection errors!. Ever since the new iOS app launched, the watch app keeps having connection errors that only get fixed when opening the iOS app. The iOS app works fine. The watchOS app can’t keep a solid connection no matter how many relogins I try.

Unable to pair bluetooth with my model. Got the car dec2. Keep showing errors. Not sure its just my car or software issues.

Worthless. I thought I’d try this app and it will not download the app to my iWatch. I’ve updated both my iPhone and iWatch iOS thinking maybe that was the issue. But made no difference. Now I have to figure out how to get my $6.99 wasted money I just spent.

This app is almost broken.. After several recent updates, it actually doesn't work properly.

Transition to new Tesla API broke the app. The app was good until the most recent change to the new Tesla API. Now the commands rarely work and the face watch widget always pulls up the charge screen now. It often freezes trying to get back to the Home Screen. Overall a major downgrade from the once awesome app

Not reliable. It takes several tries before it works. That’s way too long. I don’t have the confidence in using the app. I would not recommend it.

Didn’t work. I downloaded it and it sees my Tesla, allowed me to create the key but after that NOTHING works about it. Not opening the door or any of the Siri commands. Get an error of try to reconnect on everything. Not worth the $7

Can’t sign into Tesla. They updated the app to require a new api. The Watchla page on my phone is longer than my phone display and it does not scroll. I can’t click the login button. The app is unusable now. Hopefully they discover this issue and fix it.

Apple watch doesn’t work on teslas with a key fob. Apple watch doesn’t work on teslas with a key fob. You have to have a key card. I think this should have been made more obvious so I do not pay for it for no reason

Too many issues…. Looks nice enough but you have to open the app on your watch to use it as a key. It has issues updating charge stats. The worst though is that it no longer updates complications. Frustrating…

Amazing app but is it draining my Tesla battery. I love this app so far, but my car dropped 3% ever since having this app installed. Has any one else experienced this? This is unusual for my battery to decrease like this.

Works most of the time. I periodically get an error in the app asking me to try reconnecting, but it eventually wakes up the car and manages to connect. Quite useful overall and looks great.

Using Apple watch as your key.. Took a few tries to connect to Bluetooth. But it seems to be working now.

CAN’T USE. Wasted my money on a app that I can’t use. Nothing in the description that says you can’t use on older Apple Watches. If you have an older watch that doesn’t support IOS 8 or greater, you can’t download the app to your watch. I would like my money back.

Syncing failed between watch and phone app. Commands do not sync between phone and watch. Also watch complications do not work for opening doors

Unlock Tesla through Bluetooth. Please add the ability to unlock your Tesla through Bluetooth so I don’t need my phone. Thanks

Doesnt work. The app cannot connect to the watch. I have ultra 2 and it keeps showing “error”. I placed the key card near the cup holder in my car and it says “connecting…..” but nothing. I waited more than 5 minutes and it cant connect. I signed off and restarted. Still….. not working!!!

Great app with easily used iOS shortcuts. Works great. Would love a shortcut to enable/disable cabin overheat and one to send an address to the car.

Latest update broke this app. Hasn’t worked since new update. Never connects to car, even when standing right next to it. Not worth spending your money on until it gets fixed.

Does not work without internet connection. Really disappointed. Does not work without an internet connection and keeps signing me out. To sign in I need the Tesla key card every time.

Update does not connect to vehicle. Having been forced to update to the new app I am unable to connect my model y. I see many have this problem. I recommend you don’t waste your money until a fix is proven

Best watch app for Tesla. I used a few other remote apps, paid and free, this seems to be the most simplistic, and worked the first time

No longer works dependably. It requires to much maintenance and it’s time consuming. Not a convenience. As much or more of a pain then the Tesla app. Reliability is gone. Not worth it. Waste of money.

App Has not worked since update. After the API update this app was completely bricked. Won’t connect. Won’t work. Nothing. Review boards show that MANY users reported the error with NO response from the developer and now the app just disappeared from my Apple Watch. Waiting for a response before I file for a refund.

Was good till last updates.. The watch app does not work. Updates, gave it the authentication it needs. Still the complications does not show up. I bought this app for the watch. And it does not work.

New Shortcuts. The new update with shortcuts only work in iPhone. I hope the developer can get the shortcuts to work with iWatch. In addition, please add open driver door and front passenger door.

Not worth it. Not able to stay connected since last update. Impossible to make virtual key card.

It works!. With Bluetooth integration all I need is my AppleWatch to unlock and drive my 2023 Tesla model 3. How cool is that!? Please keep the updates coming. So much potential. 👍👍

So far so good. Overall good to have. Glitched with door opening command, but much needed to show off.🤓

Stuck on loading my old car. I got a new car and it’s stuck trying to load the old car. The moment I load the app it’s stuck on a loading screen. App is now unusable.

Was 5 star, now 1.. Something on the backend software side broke and now the watch app is not useable. Uninstalling and reinstalling did not resolve the issue. No customer service to resolve issue. I’d advise to look elsewhere for a watch key app.

Bluetooth. It works but I can’t get the Bluetooth to connect on my watch, I put the key card in every configuration, made sure all the settings on my phone and vehicle were turned on and it still won’t connect.

Great. Works great. Finally can use my watch as a bluetooth key to open my car without my phone nearby!
