I suspect the minimum version of android required for the Tesla App to work
was raised yesterday to Android 7.
I purchased a Model 3 performance the day the web page opened in Australia.
Yesterday my login to the Tesla app was disabled for both my car and the 2 Powerwalls i have.
I spoke to Tesla by phone this morning and they confirmed that i now require android 7.
The Tesla App has been working perfectly for the last 2.5 years.
I was running version 3.1 of the Tesla App on Android version 5.
Unfortunately, i bought 5 identical phones for the family to use, so now i have
little choice but to throw 5 perfectly working phones in the bin, and buy 5 new phones.
Just a warning to others who may be using older versions of android.
When Tesla raises the minimum android version again, i would expect the Tesla App to log you out
and refuse to allow you to login again, no messages or warning about what the problem is.
It took me a while to figure out what was happening.
Hopefully this will warn others of the issue, so you dont spend ages trying to figure out what is wrong.
