IT Home reported on October 22 that tech outlet notateslaapp published a post today (October 22) saying Tesla had rolled out version 4.62.0 of its app for the iPad and iPhone Duo, with an interface redesigned for large screens and foldable phones.
IT Home has included the related demonstration video below:
The report noted that iPad users previously could only use a stretched, enlarged version of the iPhone app. The new version instead has a dedicated large-screen layout, with a feature menu on the left and a more detailed vehicle visualization on the right, allowing more vehicle information to be viewed at once.
For Apple's foldable iPhone Duo, the app uses a large-screen layout on the inner display that can show charging information, live camera feeds and dashcam clips at the same time. When the phone is closed, the outer display automatically switches back to the standard phone interface.
The new interface retains the mobile app's core features, including vehicle controls, climate control, location, Autopilot, Summon, charging, scheduling, security and driver management, and Safety Score. When users open features such as “Charging,” the submenu stays on the left while the details fill the rest of the screen, making the navigation hierarchy clearer.
The new version also updates the vehicle visualization to more closely resemble the in-car parking interface. The background color matches the vehicle's paint, and the ground has a reflective effect. Users can use this interface to open or close the front and rear trunks, lock or unlock the vehicle, and check its charging status.
Tesla has also added a “Customize Controls” option so users can adjust shortcuts for flashing the lights, honking the horn, starting the vehicle and ventilation. A new “Show PSI” button displays tire pressure directly on the vehicle visualization, reducing the need to navigate deeper menus.
