Niko is a companion app for your Tesla: every control the car already has, plus the record it does not keep. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ YOUR CAR, IN FULL — AND FREE • Lock and unlock, frunk, trunk, charge port and windows • Climate: warm or cool the cabin before you get in, seat heaters, steering wheel, defrost • Charging: start it, stop it, set the limit, set the amps • Sentry mode, valet mode and speed limit • Where it is parked, with the address, on a map you can open • Tire pressures against the car's own targets, warranty, recalls and software version • Plan a trip from where the car is now, on what is actually in the battery — with the stops it would have to make, how long each one takes, and what you arrive on None of the controls are behind a subscription, and none of them will be. You paid Tesla for the car. NIKO PLUS — THE RECORD Your car keeps almost nothing. Niko watches while the app is closed, so there is something to look at when you open it. • Every trip: distance, efficiency, and where it started and ended • Every charge, and what it cost on your rate • Alerts that need watching between visits: charge started and finished, low battery at a level you choose, cabin ready, left unlocked, low tire pressure, a slow leak forming over days, service due, and software updates NIKO PRO — WHAT THE PACK IS DOING Everything in Plus, and the readings behind the percentage. • Volts, amps, charge rate and time until full • Usable capacity, and what a parked car quietly loses while it sits • Pack capacity, worked out from charges Niko watched end to end ON YOUR WRIST AND YOUR HOME SCREEN • Apple Watch app • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, and Control Center controls • A Live Activity while it charges • Siri shortcuts CAREFUL BY DEFAULT • Niko wakes your car only when it has to. A sleeping Tesla keeps its range. • Face ID or a passcode on the app itself • Passkeys and two-step verification on your Niko account • Eleven languages Niko reads your car through your Tesla account, and acts on it with Tesla's own key — adding the key takes one tap, near the car, with the Tesla app installed. Subscriptions renew until canceled. Manage or cancel yours in your Apple account settings. Niko is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Tesla, Inc.
