Automate Your Tesla For Free With Apple Shortcuts!

[@hieyeque1]

On of the best features of shortcuts is being able to per-condition the battery on Tesla at will.

[@r.schmalzried7315]

Thanks Jim, good stuff. I only wish that I could remember what automation I wanted to setup when I searched for this😅

[@ajm854]

Hi you give us some amazing information about Tesla's Thanks for taking your time to explain these Cheers from Australia

[@k1ngdomkid]

Thank you for making this very useful video 🎉 I have not seen such a detailed instructional video on YT like yours 🤳

[@iowatesla]

Glad it was helpful!

[@TimFrench-tx1xj]

Great content! Will try on my new Y. Also purchased Satonic frunk opener……been awhile how’s yours working? Thanks!

[@Sandeep-k9z]

Does anyone know how to create a shortcut with the following commend “unlatch my Tesla model Y door when I approach my car (probably when Bluetooth connected instead of just unlocking) “

[@HRezz]

yes, a shortcut for that would be amazing. I use the "unlatch door" control on the Tesla app all the time.

Great Shortcuts walk thru for anyone. Even better that it was Tesla centric.

[@iowatesla]

Thanks for watching!

[@lakergreat1]

Great video! Could you make a shortcut that opens the garage door and backs the vehicle out of the garage each morning? I'd love to see that!

[@a.girl.has.no.name_]

This would be incredible!

[@richb134]

Lots of great info thanks ! Really enjoy your road-trip videos, any coming up in the near future?

[@iowatesla]

Thanks. Going on a 3000 mile trip in March.

[@joelm077]

interesting stuff....how many can you do? I am thinking warm/cool the car while I am leaving a building but not sure what else I would actually use

[@evdave528]

Well done Jim!! Very cool

[@iowatesla]

Thanks Dave!

[@stevendipietro2928]

You are very clear. Well done and thanks

[@jjamespacbell]

Nice I will give this a try

[@iowatesla]

Thanks for watching!

[@richardfinnegan4275]

I was advised to always charge to 100 on my 2024 model as all batteries have charge protection.

[@suzakukururugi6613]

This is amazing!😮

[@Evans_Man]

super informative! Thanks!

[@derrickgarcia303]

Can this be done on MYQ app?

[@itsdavejustdave4876]

Unfortunately the one command I want to use isn’t supported by my 2024 Model Y. It works on every other Tesla, just not the highest selling Tesla model.

[@BobbieGWhiz]

What’s that?

[@Juuythljgrrdwq]

Good video 👍

[@mohamedmohamed9462]

Great tip.

[@HRezz]

thank you for creating this video! a couple of years ago when I saw your first video on shortcuts, I was hooked. I do have a question, when I run the Open Trunk shortcut, Siri always asks "Are you sure? You'll need co close it manually". is there a way to edit the shortcut so I don't get that question?

[@iowatesla]

I don't think you can change the behavior. Sorry.

[@HRezz]

@@iowatesla thats ok, I'm just happy to have this working again! thank you!

[@bajamemihaj2454]

@@iowatesla same thing to me what do you mean about behavior? What have to do?

[@vrso2]

Naaah, Voice commands on Apple watch don’t work 😢 Yes, you can click on shortcut and it will do what it suppose, but Siri wont do It. Always ask add key card to your wallet 🤷‍♂️

[@MrHoudinidog]

Same here doesn’t work 😢

[@Onthecrest]

Jim, am I missing something? Why did the car charge to 97% instead of 90? You seem to have glossed over that. Was there a glitch in the shortcut?

[@MzWriteNow]

??? I created my shortcuts from the list of Tesla shortcuts on my iPhone. But they are working with my Siri voice command. What did I do wrong? ???

[@MzWriteNow]

I solved my own problem. I had to disable the Shortcut feature in Settings, then re-enable it for it to synchronize with the newly created shortcuts.

[@AzizIzgin]

Can I use my Apple Watch without the phone?

[@iowatesla]

Not yet. However, I'm hearing that Tesla is about ready to add native Apple Watch support to their app.

[@M3NTALMAGIC]

There are like 10 different Tesla apps and they do different things.

[@OMG-2]

Did something happen to iOS or Tesla App to prevent these from working. The download to manage charge errors out..

[@iowatesla]

I don' think so. I use mine everyday.

[@miggymonster1]

Hi Jim! Thanks for making this. I’m experiencing the same thing. Some buttons work but Siri is not cooperating LOL

[@jmp622]

Apple shortcuts suck. To confusing. Easier to just set the charge or do what you want in the Tesla App.

[@BobbieGWhiz]

It’s quite easy to set up as the Tesla shortcuts are already pre-made. I use them to open and close my trunk, and partially open windows “crack windows” by just saying “Siri”. His advice is overly complicated.

[@MAGApepe]

be nice to turn off autopilot nags :)))
