Wiki 2021+ Model S Refresh - Missing/Incomplete Software Features

[David29]

Most people rarely look at their tire pressure. That's not something that's important to me outside of the alert when it's low or checking before long trips.

But the music was pointless as it's on the main screen and energy graph is also something that can be pulled up, but unnecessary to have up at all times.

Especially with FSD being fixed behind the wheel, there wasn't room for all of that.

You are missing the point that the previous design was configurable and people could select what they prefer. Personally, I have driven my Model S for 7 years with the Energy graph displayed most of the time and I find it useful and that is what I want to have up. I have also had the tire pressure display up at times as a reminder to take care of TPs when they need adjusting for change in weather or any other reason. Sometimes the trip data is handy to show. People with the new model have lost the flexibility to display what they prefer. So that is a loss.

You missed where I said I'm ok with options, but I find the new interface better.

I don't care about adding new features. Just please fix the horrible bugs we already have. Like the damn half shaft vibrations between 40-50 mph. They could fix that through software or revised hardware.

I don't think that could be fixed via software update.

It could be with remapping. In track mode and rear torque bias the vibration disappears. They could bias the torque to the rear motors under light acceleration.

Umm, there is a whole thread on that.

I just discovered you can see tire pressures on the app on your phone.

It shows up on phone app controls menu, upper right. Does not display when charging.

Must only apply to models newer than mine. But regardless, that is good to know, thank you.

No tire pressure goodness for me in controls on 4.21.5-1747 for a 2017 S.

I have app rev -1749

But you have a button for your mirrors, real leather, and maybe a sunroof, among other features they removed on the refresh

Not too long ago ...

I used to pin the trip data up on the right side of the instrument screen. The left was usually navigation or tire pressure (but while charging I believe it defaulted to the efficiency graph ).

Sure wish we could get this functionality back and the other customizations the previous user interface afforded. Even having this data displayed on a small section of the main screen would be a step in the right direction. As it is now, just to display those 4 lines requires the exclusive use of 100% of the real estate of the large center screen. How stupid is that? Unless I am missing something, it makes no sense.

And not only that, look at those nice readable fonts! That must have been a few updates ago. I can hardly read any of the text on the screen these days....

Yeah.. once Elon’s vision starts to get bad, he will complain about the current poor font selection and dictate to his team an update that will make them easier to read again

You might need 4.21.5-1749. We have that version of the app and can view tire pressure readings on our 2017 S 100D and our 2022 and 2023 vehicles.

iOS or Android? Funny you get a new version, even without one showing, by deleting and reinstalling on iOS. So now I have 4.22.0-1763 a but still no tire pressure.

Android

I wonder why Android has tire pressure but not iOS?

Would you mind posting a screen shot? I just don’t see it on the controls screen.

Here you go.
