    Favorite voice commands - What's yours?

    I just found a new (to me) voice command which led me to wonder what others use as their favorites...what's yours? Press the microphone button and say: "Search Google for (...)" Access information quickly and easily by saying, "Search Google for X," where X represents the keywords or query you...

    Searching for Superchargers Only on Google Maps

    When I do a search on Google maps for Supercharges in a given location, it returns tons of other hits for general chargers, especially destination chargers. I've tried adding -destination with no benefit. I've tried putting "Superchargers" in quotes with no benefit. Often it does not show a...

    Never rely on Tesla App on Android; Google can stop it for no reason.

    Disclosure: I love Tesla. I strongly dislike Google very very much. Hate leads to the Dark Side; so I don't go there. I use my phone Tesla app for everything and was loving it. Then after 5 months, I get a message that "unfortunately, the Tesla App was stopped." Two choices; Report and...

    Samsung phone issues

    I have tried a Note 8, S9, S10, and Note 10 with my Model 3. All have Bluetooth issues. They fail with proximity unlock leaving me standing in the rain. When on a call and entering the vehicle they fail to properly handoff audio (mainly mic transfer). However, two different Pixel 3 XLs and a...

    Youtube app continuously gives google precise location?!

    I was messing around with the Tesla's browser yesterday, as well as the alternate variant of it that can be accessed by clicking a link from within the youtube "app". I happened to jokingly go to Lyft's web-app, at ride.lyft.com, and was shocked to see it pinpoint my precise current location...

    Newbie navigation question

    I’m on the cusp of ordering a Model S. Not pushed the button yet but probably will shortly. You folks might be sick of this but on the various similar threads there's a handful of points I’m not sure I have an answer to… My main one is on navigation – I read that the Tesla system runs on an...

    V9, AP 2.0: Google Maps faster than basic maps?

    2018.39.6 Anyone have a reason for why Google Maps update faster than the plain, nearly-featureless maps in the Nav display? It’s counterintuitive. Google Maps have much more data to be displayed, yet they update significantly faster, especially when I move the map to a completely new...

    Discrepancy in Google navigation compared to phone

    Hi all, do you also observe navi (old Google one, firmware 32.4, EU if it matters) planning "crazy routes (i.e 2.5 hours instead of 2 hours, navigating on pedestrian/bicycle paths, jumping out of tunnel to surface road...)? What's interesting is that Google navi on Android phone doesn't (and...

    Vehicle Location Not Updating in Nav App

    Hi all, Just adopted our new 60D today. Have been dismayed to find that the car's location in the Nav app is not updating while we drive (at this point, not at all). When we drove away from the dealership and noticed this I assumed the Nav screen was in some sort of "detail" screen out of...

    Security researcher disabled self-driving car with a laser and a Raspberry Pi

    Saw this in the news today. Autopilot in the Tesla shouldn't be effected by this specifically since it is using cameras instead of these Lidar sensors but still worth noting when thinking of all the things Tesla needs to be considering before releasing auto pilot to the world. Self-driving cars...

    Google's head of self-driving cars' case against driver assistance (AutoPilot)

    I found this TED talk quite interesting, putting what Tesla is developing in context. While I do not agree with the full argument (that driver assistance cannot asymptotically become self driving), seeing something of the innards of how much they have developed over the past three years gives a...
