Hi, is the Tesla Remote App worth $9.99 ? Didn’t know if I should get it or just use the Tesla App. Thanks.

Yes. It has the best Tesla app for the Apple Watch and gives you a lot more flexibility by using Siri Shortcuts.Hi, is the Tesla Remote App worth $9.99 ? Didn’t know if I should get it or just use the Tesla App. Thanks.
I use the Stats app and the drain is minimal. You'll use way more drain by using Sentry Mode.Yes. It has the best Tesla app for the Apple Watch and gives you a lot more flexibility by using Siri Shortcuts.
The Stats app adds to my phantom drain because it polls data remotely even when you're not using the app. If you read the negative reviews for that app, you'll see that I'm not the only one who notices this, but the app creator refuses to acknowledge it. You know that the Stats app is remotely accessing your car's data because the app is capable of giving notifications when the app isn't even running and also because he clearly collects data from all his users. This means that if you use the Stats app, you are giving that app creator remote access to your vehicle. There's no disclaimer written in the app's description that says that he doesn't keep your car credentials safely secured on his servers. The Remote app never sends data elsewhere other than to Tesla's servers as seen in the app description.
If you turn off background app refresh Stats should only update when you open the app.
but do you still have to download the app via iphone to the Apple watch? Please explain how do you keep the App on the iphone passive?I find remote S useful because I use my Apple watch a lot.
I hardly ever use the app on my phone.
I would only recommend it if you have an Apple watch.
1. Buy the app on the phone.but do you still have to download the app via iphone to the Apple watch? Please explain how do you keep the App on the iphone passive?
Are you using low power mode? It disables background app refresh across the board.On my Iphone the “background app refresh” is grayed out. How did you do that?
I don’t believe him when he says that he doesn’t have access to the vehicles. Notice how he says that he doesn’t collect user credentials but never mentioned that he doesn’t collect authentication tokens. The token is all you need to locate and unlock your car.I use the Stats app and the drain is minimal.
