Tesla now lets you control your car with Apple Shortcuts-668影视网电视剧大全

Apple Shortcuts have just become a bit more useful to Tesla owners.

In the latest version (4.24.0) of its mobile app for iOS, Tesla rolled out support for Apple Shortcuts. A quick memory refresher: Shortcuts is a free app that comes with the iPhone and iPad, allowing you to set up time-saving settings for various actions (or even roll up several actions into one shortcut). You can access them with a tap or by talking to Siri, Apple's digital assistant.

Now, when you open Shortcuts, you'll see a list of options you can set up for your Tesla. These shortcuts include the ability to lock and unlock your vehicle, start preconditioning the car, enable or disable Sentry and Dog mode, open and close the charging port, boot, and bonnet, and more.

Once you set up a shortcut, you can just leave it there and access it by talking to Siri, or you can add it to the Home Screen (among other options) for easier access.

Since Shortcuts lets you chain several actions into one, you can create more complex commands for your car. For example, I've set up a shortcut that locks my Tesla, closes all windows, and enables Sentry mode, all with one tap. And if you want to take this a step further, you can use the Shortcuts app to create Automations, which allow you to run shortcuts when certain conditions are met, such as when you arrive at a certain location or at a specific time of day.
