Tesla

For Tesla owners, the phone doubles as a remote control for the car and the home battery. Tesla, the official app from Tesla, Inc., links owners directly to their vehicles and Powerwall units wherever they are.

On the car side, owners can watch charging progress live and start or stop a charge, warm up or cool down the cabin before a drive, even in a garage, and lock or unlock the car remotely. The app shows where the vehicle is, with directions or live movement tracking, and addresses shared from other apps can be sent straight to the car's navigation. Passengers can control media, and a parked car can flash its lights or sound the horn to help find it. The panoramic roof can be vented or closed, vehicles with Autopilot can be summoned out of a garage or tight spot, and software updates can be started remotely. For Powerwall 2 owners, the app tracks how much solar energy is stored, used at home or sent to the grid, and lets them download production and battery data.

Owners clearly like it: 4.7 on average from 65,442 ratings, with 86% five stars and 5% one star, across 5,000,000+ installs. The app is free, with no ads and no in-app purchases. It was updated on 2026-09-18, is rated Everyone and needs Android 7.0 or newer. We list 37 versions; the latest, 4.60.0-4542, is a very large 654.9 MB download.

Anyone who owns a Tesla vehicle or Powerwall 2 will want it installed. Everyone else has little use for it, and the file size is worth noting on phones with limited storage.
