When I have sentry mode enabled in the car and there is an event, should I receive a notification notice on the phone?
Version 11.1 2024.3.25, I think is the software version.

Yes, you should get notifications, but only for Sentry Mode alarm events, the ones that actually trigger the Sentry alarm. Sentry Mode alert events, which happen when people/cars pass by your car, don't notify you in the app.

Tesla will only notify you then the alarm goes off, if you want notifications on all Sentry Mode events you will need the app Sentry Pro. Look it up here: Sentry Pro - For your Tesla

Actually not true. I thought that too. However, my friend today showed me sentry events on his phone that were triggered from people just walking past his car. He got the notification on his phone main screen and was able to simply press the clip to view. No alarm was triggered,,,it’s basically exactly what the car records as events internally. It just started happening a few days ago he said. He has the model Y,,,I have the Model X and still don’t have it on my phone

This screenshot is from NotATeslaApp release notes for 2024.14.8. Note: it's says the alarm has to be triggered. My 2022 MSLR has 2024.14.8 in the car and my Android phone has app version 4.33.0. I've noticed a quick access button to view events in the car. However, no notice or any way to view events on the Android phone.
Maybe only iPhone can do this, not Android.

I saw that too. However, I actually witnessed a sentry clip being recorded and sent to the Iphone without any alarm triggered. Simply somebody walking past my friends car. So I can say from seeing this personally and it does not have to trigger the alarm. I had thought the same thing (would really would have sucked, because as I write this, I’m waiting for my door to be repainted as somebody keyed it! and naturally it did not trigger an alarm)

Here is a screen show of what showed on his iphone. It matched what was in the car. The event was simply triggered a by somebody driving past the car. No alarms, no nothing,,,,just a basic sentry mode event that you see when you get into your car. He did say that It just started happening like 1 day ago
