About

WrapX

Features
Read full description

WrapX makes digital wraps for the 3D car on your Tesla's touchscreen. Pick your model and trim once. Every wrap you see from then on is already cut to that exact panel layout, using the template Tesla publishes for the car, so what you save is what appears on the screen - nothing stretched, no seams down the doors. HOW IT WORKS 1. Choose your car. Model 3, Model Y, Model S, Model X and Cybertruck. The trim matters as much as the model. 2. Find a wrap in Discover, or make your own in Studio from any image on your phone. 3. Save to Photos, then open the Tesla app and import it under Creations. WHAT YOU GET - A library across gradients, patterns, textures and graphics, with new designs every month - Free wraps to try, with no account and no sign-up - Studio, where you build a wrap from your own image and see it on the car as you work - Files that obey the car's rules: PNG, 512 to 1024 pixels, under 1 MB, with a filename the car accepts. The app will not let you export something the car will reject. - Garage, which keeps track of the ten wrap slots the car gives you NOTHING LEAVES YOUR PHONE There is no account, no login and no server. Your car, your saved wraps and the designs you make are held on the device and nowhere else. No analytics, no advertising SDK. MEMBERSHIP A membership unlocks the whole library and every new release. Monthly and yearly renew until cancelled; lifetime is a one-off purchase and does not renew. Prices are shown in your own currency before you buy anything, and Apple handles the payment. WrapX is an independent studio. It is not made by, endorsed by, or connected to Tesla, Inc. Tesla, Model 3, Model Y, Model S, Model X and Cybertruck are trademarks of Tesla, Inc. These are digital images for the in-car visualisation, not physical vehicle wrap.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Tesla at none against WrapX's 3. Tesla also leads on chart position (#19 vs unranked). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
