## What is iCar for Tesla?

iCar turns the blank start page of your Tesla's built in browser into a home
screen you actually want to open, and gives you controls your car does not
offer on its own. You set everything on your phone. The car follows.

SET UP IN ONE MINUTE
1. Install iCar on your phone and sign in: a link by email, or Google, Apple
or Tesla. No password.
2. In your car, open the browser and go to geticar.com/app
3. Scan the QR code on the car screen with your phone.
The car is paired. Anything you change on your phone shows up there within
seconds.

THE DASHBOARD FOR YOUR TESLA
Time, weather and range at the top. Your shortcuts in large tiles. Your car's
data and the commands you really use, from Sentry to Camp Mode, one tap away.
And something to do while you charge.

SET ON YOUR PHONE. SHOWN IN THE CAR.
Add a favorite where there is a real keyboard: news, radio, maps, charging
networks, video, parking. Sort them into sections, rename them, hide what you
never open. The grid in the car updates by itself. The grid and the shortcuts
are free, with no time limit.

YOUR PHONE, A SECOND SCREEN
Lay it sideways on the dash and the Cockpit opens by itself. GPS speed in
large type, battery, distance, average and the time of the drive you are on.
It works even without a Tesla account, and in a car that is not one.

Everything below comes with the subscription.

EVERY CHARGE. THE REAL COST.
Every session logged: energy delivered, which charger, and what it cost. Enter
your rates once and the cost appears by itself. When Tesla bills a
Supercharger session, the real amount replaces the estimate. No rate entered,
no invented figure. Plus your battery level day after day, usable capacity
measured from your own charges, and the Superchargers you can actually reach.

THE RIGHT LIMIT. AT THE RIGHT PLACE.
80% at home, 100% at work, 100% on a trip. Your Tesla can schedule when it
charges, not how far. iCar sets the limit the moment you plug in. It never
reads or stores an address: the car simply says whether it is home or at work.

EVERY TRIP. DRAWN ON THE MAP.
Recorded by the car itself, with no button to press and no gap. Each drive
with its distance, moving time, battery used, and the route on a map with the
speed curve underneath. Trips group into journeys, so a week away reads as one
and not as eleven. Cities, regions and countries reached become badges.

THE ROAD HAS STORIES. ICAR TELLS THEM.
Monuments and places worth a stop announce themselves as you approach, with a
photo and a short story. If one tempts you, send it straight to the car's
navigation. Traffic, roadworks and speed cameras are announced the same way.

THE WORLD, LIVE. RIGHT ON THE ROAD.
Several hundred live TV channels, radio stations and podcasts, sorted by
category, with nothing to install and no account to create.

YOUR MOVIES. NOW IN THE CAR.
Your own Plex server on the Tesla's screen: your films, your series and your
music, with their posters. Files go from your server to your car, never
through us: no streaming subscription, no quota. Video when parked; music anywhere.

ON EVERY STOP. HOME EXCLUDED.
Let iCar arm Sentry Mode every time you park, and leave it off at home and at
work. Get a notification when Sentry detects someone, or when your car leaves
its parking spot. Doors, trunks, lock, climate, Dog Mode and Camp Mode are one
tap away as well.

THE SUBSCRIPTION
4.99 EUR or 4.99 USD per month, 49 EUR or 49 USD per year, with a 14 day free
trial. Up to two cars per account. Cancel any time in your iOS settings.
Without it, the grid, the shortcuts and the settings keep working.

REQUIREMENTS
Works with the browser built into Tesla vehicles (Model 3, Y, S, X).
Connecting your Tesla account is optional for the grid and the shortcuts, and
needed for everything that reads or commands the car.

iCar is an independent product and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or
sponsored by Tesla, Inc. Tesla and Model 3, Model Y, Model S and Model X are
