Tesla's New Automations App: Create Custom Routines for Your EV Life

Tesla's New Automations App: Create Custom Routines for Your EV Life

Hey everyone, DennisCW here! If you're a Tesla owner like me, you know how awesome it is to tweak your vehicle to fit your lifestyle perfectly. Today, I'm excited to dive into Tesla's upcoming Automations app – a game-changer that brings Apple Shortcuts-level customization right into your Tesla ecosystem. Let's break it down and explore why this could revolutionize your daily drive.

The Power of Automations: From Shortcuts to Native Tesla Magic

I've been using Apple Shortcuts to automate my Tesla for a while now. One of my favorites? Setting Sentry Mode to activate automatically from 12:00 a.m. to 6:00 a.m. every night. It's perfect for those sketchy parking spots without draining your battery 24/7 like constant Sentry Mode would. But now, Tesla is leveling up with their own dedicated Automations app – no third-party apps required!

According to the leak, you'll be able to "create personalized vehicle experiences" by building custom routines triggered by events and conditions. Here's how it works:

• Event detected (e.g., driver door opens)
• Condition checked (e.g., someone in the driver's seat)
• Action executed (e.g., voice reminder: "Please don’t forget to take your personal belongings!")

That's straight-up cool. Imagine the possibilities!

My Dream Automations for Everyday Tesla Wins

Here are a few automations I'd set up immediately:

• Home Arrival Mode: When I pull into the garage, automatically switch to low power mode, disable Sentry, and precondition the cabin for the next morning. No more unnecessary battery drain!
• Phone Wake-Up Blast: If my phone unlocks near the car (on a hot day), crank the AC to 60°F instantly for that icy-cool entry.
• Chain Reactions: Tie multiple actions together – like dimming lights, playing a favorite playlist, and adjusting seats all at once when you hop in after work.
