Allen, First of all, thanks for a great app. It is the best thing out there.
Two requests:
1. Any chance that at some point you can interface your software tot he amazon echo for voice commands (e.g., while eating breakfast, telling it to turn on heat in my tesla?)
2. I used to use the Tesla Model S desktop app by Trevor Stone, which had a timer/calendar grid in it that I could program for turning on HVAC in the car (i.e., pre-conditioning that worked). Unfortunately, due to something that Tesla did to its servers, that program doesn't work anymore, and it would be great if I could program YOUR app to turn on the heat in my car every morning, M-F at 8:30, for example. Any chance of getting that feature?
Thanks
1. I don't have an Amazon Echo, so I don't know how it works behind the scenes. But if it's anything like what I imagine it to be, it wouldn't be able to interface with my app. It'd have to interface with Tesla's API directly.
2. That's what background scheduling is, and was something I was working on back in June prior to my surgery. Only issue with it is that Apple requires strict conditions for apps to run in the background. If the app can't run in the background, then I can't tell your Tesla to do things at certain times. It also will take a lot of work to get it into my app, so it'll take me some time to finish coding it.

While you're at updating the app can you add 3D touch quick access to remote start and A/C controls? would love to be able to access without opening the app.
I have plans for adding 3D touch functionality.
