San Francisco. Elon Musk-owned Tesla’s app has got support for automation with Apple Shortcuts.
Now, Tesla owners who have an iPhone can use Siri to activate Apple Shortcut automation without having to use a third-party app like TeCi, reports The Verge.
On Saturday, the auto-maker released a new version of the Tesla app, 4.24.0, with a note mentioning, “Access your vehicle controls and climate from the Apple Shortcuts app.”
To use Siri with Shortcuts, users have to summon the iPhone maker’s digital assistant and speak the name of their automation.
“It’s a little trickier than real Siri integration, because in order to trigger the shortcut automation, you have to remember the given names and repeat them verbatim,” the report says, but it’s probably the best Tesla owners will get. , at least for now.”
The shortcut support sold a bit short in the company’s release notes.
With the new shortcut support, users will likely be able to use shortcuts to control multiple modes, such as Dog Mode or Bioweapon Defense Mode.
Using only their voice, users will also be able to close all windows, adjust media volume, open their front or set a charge limit.
Meanwhile, last month, the auto-maker launched a new email campaign urging Tesla owners with the Full Self-Driving (FSD) package to upgrade to a newer car and move to the FSD package.
The transfer terms and email campaign revealed that what Musk called an “apology offer” was nothing more than an increase in demand for Tesla.
