Teslatlas gives TeslaMate and MyTeslaMate users a clear, native view of driving and charging history on iPhone, iPad and Mac. Try the built-in offline demo before connecting your own source. YOUR HISTORY, MADE CLEAR • Browse drives with route, distance, energy and available costs • Review charging sessions, energy, prices and charging curves • Explore battery-health estimates, efficiency trends and parked drain • Build trips, compare periods and export selected data • Check source and local-database readiness LOCAL RECORDS, USEFUL OFFLINE Connect your separately configured source and import your history. Prepared local records can then be browsed offline. Source updates, purchases and restore, Apple map assets, eligible weather requests and external links need network access. Feature access and available source coverage still apply. READ-ONLY SOURCE IMPORT Teslatlas does not send vehicle commands or write back to your configured source. History is stored and analysed on your device. Teslatlas does not operate a vehicle-history relay or upload product analytics to Magrathean. SIRI, SHORTCUTS AND OPTIONAL AI Ask supported questions about locally recorded drives, consumption, charging and costs with Siri and Shortcuts. Numeric answers read local facts without preparing an AI model. Missing values and estimates remain identified. Available answers depend on your imported records and permitted history window. Optional AI explanations (experimental-beta) require supported Apple hardware, software and language, and explicit in-app consent. WEATHER WHEN YOU OPEN A DRIVE Eligible Drive details can request weather context from Apple when opened and cache the result locally. This does not reconstruct weather for old drives. The offline demo does not request weather. 30 DAYS FREE. ONE-TIME FULL ACCESS. Browse your rolling last 30 days at no charge, with no trial countdown or automatic paid conversion. A one-time Full Access purchase expands the history window to the rolling last 365 days, where records are available from your source. The App Store shows your local price. Restore purchases from Settings. Previously verified access can be used offline while its local entitlement cache remains valid. WHAT YOU NEED The built-in demo uses fictional records and needs no source account. To import your own history, configure a supported TeslaMate PostgreSQL source or MyTeslaMate account that your device can reach. Source hosting is separate from Teslatlas. The demo does not provide real-data Siri answers. Battery-health, energy and cost estimates are informational, not diagnostic, repair or warranty advice. Teslatlas is independent and is not made, endorsed or supported by Tesla, TeslaMate or MyTeslaMate.

Read full description

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.
