### 2/5 — Utilité de l’application sans abonnement ?

*2025-03-11*

Bonjour, j’aimerais connaître l’utilité de votre application sans abonnement. Je l’ai téléchargée, j’ai quelques fonctionnalités de base sur mon iPhone. Je l’ai installé sur mon iwatch et là, bah à part aller dans l’application elle-même, impossible de l’utiliser comme complication. Du coup, pour moi, aucune utilité car complètement inappropriée pour l’usage sur mon iwatch en mode sans abonnement.

### 3/5 — 계정 삭제 바랍니다

*2024-12-29, version 4.9.8*

무료어플인지 알고 설치 했습니다

### 4/5 — 藍芽干擾解決沒

*2024-12-10, version 4.9.8*

之前去信詢問的藍牙鑰匙跟手機鑰匙干擾的問題後續解決了嗎？

### 1/5 — Does not deserve even half a star

*2024-09-12, version 4.7.4*

Pure garbage, the app redirects you to download another app that costs you 20$ a month and it doesn’t even work! It actually messes up your Tesla account

### 2/5 — 最近軟體延遲太嚴重

*2024-07-03, version 4.6.0*

以前還不錯用，現在下個指令等超久，不如直接使用原廠app即可。準備申請退款

### 1/5 — 真雞肋

*2024-06-28, version 4.5.1*

手機也無法授權，重開機也沒用，手錶也一直轉，真後悔下載這個沒用又讓自己一肚子氣的app

### 3/5 — Its not free. Pay before use

*2024-06-06*

There’s a subscription after you complete the account setup

**Developer response:** Hi, Sorry for letting you down. You may try the free features or free trial before you pay.

### 1/5 — 취소 바랍니다

*2024-06-03, version 4.5.0*

연결 오류라고 계속 뜨네요
ssl 오류

### 2/5 — 反應很慢

*2024-05-26, version 4.4.5*

用原廠 app 及好了
買這只是浪費錢

### 2/5 — ip15 17.4.1登入後閃退

*2024-05-01, version 4.3.0*

第一次下載使用，點設定就遇到閃退…再也開不了

### 1/5 — Not happy

*2024-05-01*

I just dropped 50+ bucks and the app keeps crashing!!! Unbelievable!!!!  Ive tried un install reinstall… rebooting my device and deleting and the reinstalling… well that’s my budget for having lunch out a few days this week 🤨

**Developer response:** Hi, 
Sorry for the inconvenience, the crash issue has been fixed. Please update and try again. Thank you

### 3/5 — TERI App … um …

*2024-04-30*

PROS: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
- Great UI
- Many Baked in Features (more on this)
- Very responsive developer (Kris)

CONS: 😔👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽
- Numerous bugs, glitches 🕷️
- After paying  $103  for the Annual Plan, you realize that many of the Siri verbal commands …**ALREADY** EXIST in Siri Shortcuts pre-installed on iOS … for FREE …

- The TERI Apps shortcuts and Siri commands seem made (mainly) for Model’s Y and 3. Not so much (number of features & commands) for Model’s X and S …

If you own a Model X my advice is launch your pre-installed Shortcuts App (iOS) and use it. 
It has all the same Siri commands and … it’s Free. 
✌🏽☮️

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We are committed to supporting all Tesla owners, regardless of their model. If you encountered any compatibility issues with Model X or S, please email us at kris@teriapp.com so we can assist you promptly. Additionally, our app includes a Siri shortcut for opening doors—a feature not available in the native app. We look forward to resolving your concerns.

### 2/5 — I need a tutorial …

*2024-04-20*

I need a tutorial particularly for the Siri controls on both the Apple Watch & iPhone. Doesn’t work well … with Siri. Bought & Downloaded this App *solely* because of Robert Rosenfeld, now because of Siri inability to work … I’m having buyers remorse …

A bit frustrated with the voice commands here. I’ve never owned a M3 or MY and the TERI App seems a bit “cheap” w/o the promised Siri support for both Apple Watch & iOS … ☹️

### 4/5 — Love the App

*2024-04-19*

It does everything fine but I can not connect to the Tesla as a phone to make phone calls.

**Developer response:** To connect your phone to your Tesla for phone functions, navigate to the "Bluetooth" section on your Tesla's touchscreen. You should see your phone listed there. Simply select your phone from the list and tap "Connect."

### 1/5 — 無奈😮‍💨

*2026-02-24, version 6.1.2*

語音也無法控制…
進去app還會轉圈圈。就是個浪費摳摳的App。

*2025-08-17, version 5.1.3*

Not sure why but the option to unlock frunk was taken away

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work unless your phone is in your hand AND you’re connected to the internet

*2025-06-18*

Doesn’t work unless your phone is in your hand and you’re connected to the Internet don’t waste your time or your money

**Developer response:** Hi,
The Siri command should work in your pocket as long as the Siri can hear you.
Please email us your issue so we can help you. kris@teriapp.com

### 1/5 — Tesla更新後無法使用

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2024-10-11*

Purchased the one year subscription and upon installing the Tesla app lost connection. The Tesi app is showing my data from the previous day and many of the features seems pointless. Do not recommend. Deleting APP.

**Developer response:** Hi, If you add Teri as your Tesla key, it opens trunk, front, unlock charge port under 1 seconds. It's the only app that can do that on the market.

### 1/5 — App Won’t sync to Tesla

*2024-10-10, version 4.7.5*

On initial setup at the part to allow Teri access to Tesla the page is blank and user cannot go any further.

### 1/5 — 速度緩慢 一直錯誤

*2024-10-05, version 4.7.5*

打開速度超慢，再來打開後他還會隨便開啟其他功能 好幾次按冷氣都給我直接開後車廂或是前車廂 傻眼🙄 然後右上角那邊一直重疊到不知道是什麼數字了 直接變數字集合體 明明就已經跟授權卡了還是常常跳錯誤 超級煩

### 1/5 — App

### 5/5 — 期待未來越來越好

*2024-05-17, version 4.4.4*

2024/5/16首po
1.Apple Watch及手機app控制都會跳「發生錯誤」、「Retry later」訊息，按了「好」才會繼續動作。
 2.手機app狀態列可以看到後車廂狀態並可控制開啟，但無法像Tesla原廠可以同按鍵關閉。 3.手機app內建「設定Siri捷徑」設定完了，卻無法使用「嘿Siri」。

2024/5/17更新
上述問題全部解決，非常有效率，值得推薦！
