Skip the handle. Handlefree opens the right door of your Tesla with one press. Unlatch your Tesla's driver door from the Action Button, a Shortcut, Control Center or your Apple Watch. Let a passenger in by releasing exactly their door before they reach for the handle. Open the frunk and trunk, close the powered trunk, and open or close the charge-port cover. Every press is one deliberate attempt, sent directly to your car over Bluetooth. Nothing waits in a queue to fire later, and nothing is retried automatically. Handlefree then tells you what actually happened: requested, accepted by the car, reported open, or unavailable. It shows how long the command took. • One control per door, each with a named confirmation, mapped to your steering side • Live door position while you stand beside your car, whenever the car reports it • Siri phrases, nine ready-made Shortcuts, plus fixed-door controls for Control Center and the Lock Screen (iOS 18+) • Two favorite controls right under the main button • Apple Watch app and complication, using your nearby iPhone • Holiday Mode pauses every command until you turn it off with Face ID or your passcode • An optional strong-signal check before sending Private by design: your key is created on your iPhone and stays in its device-only Keychain. No Tesla login, no Handlefree account, no server, no analytics or advertising SDK. Free forever: your driver door, locking and unlocking, Holiday Mode and every safety setting. Handlefree Pro is a one-time purchase, not a subscription. It unlocks passenger and rear doors, frunk, trunk, the charge-port cover and Apple Watch, and is shared with your family through Family Sharing. Try every Pro feature free for 7 days after you pair your car. Works with Tesla vehicles that support Bluetooth phone keys and current vehicle software; Model S and Model X built before 2021 do not. Confirmed on Model Y and Model 3. Pairing needs a key card that already opens your car, at the interior card reader; setup walks you through it in four steps and shows where the reader is. Each additional door or cargo action is tested once on your car before its shortcut is enabled. Use beside your parked car with the area around the door or cargo opening clear. Bluetooth range varies. A command acknowledgement does not prove physical movement. The frunk is closed by hand. Handlefree is an independent app by OneKapisch. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to Tesla, Inc. Tesla, Model 3, Model Y, Model S and Model X are trademarks of Tesla, Inc.
