Tesla’s iPhone app now supports Live Activities for Supercharging


Tesla’s latest iOS app update allows the user to view their car’s Supercharging progress on their phone’s lock screen, Not a Tesla App reports.
The feature takes advantage of Apple’s Live Activities feature, which gives apps the ability to display real-time updates on your lock screen, like showing your Uber is going to arrive or when your ParkMobile parking meter is about to expire. In Tesla’s case, it can keep you updated on the charging session and help alert you to move your car when it’s done to avoid idle fees.
The Supercharger Live Activity shows how much time is left in the session, your current charge percentage, an estimated cost, the charge speed, and how much energy you’ve added. Currently, it does not show up if you’re charging at home or non-Supercharger stalls.
In addition to the iOS update, Tesla is also rolling out a new feature for some of its newer EVs that can alert owners if they’ve forgotten their kid in the car. The new “Child Left Alone” feature is only coming to Europe for now, specifically to the new Model 3 (mid-2023 and later), which includes in-cabin radar. The hardware currently can sense people in the front seats in lieu of needing seat sensors, but now it’s looking in the back seat, too. Tesla says it will roll out to other models and regions “later.”
