Automatic 911 Class:
This could be a big feature for the users, post upgrade, the Tesla vehicle will call 911 if it detects airbag deployment following an accident.
However, a countdown timer will allow the user to cancel the call before it connects. If the user doesn’t need 911. But the feature required the smartphone to remain connected to the Tesla via Bluetooth.
Speed Cameras:
The navigation system now shows symbols on your route along with stop signs and traffic lights. This feature is available with premium connectivity.
Trip Planner:
The trip planner is now available on the Mobile app. To use this capability, go to “Location”, from here “Navigate” and enter a destination.
To add multiple stops or make changes, tap on Edit Trip > Add Stop. The trip planner also includes charging stops and sharing the planned trip to your car with the “Send to Car” feature. The latest feature requires Tesla app version 4.27.5+.
More Cameras in Live Camera View:
The Tesla app now provides access to left and right pillar cameras. From your vehicle touchscreen, open Controls > Safety > View Live Camera via Mobile App. This feature requires Tesla app version 4.27.5+ and premium connectivity.
Automatic Blind Spot:
The blind spot camera view now alerts you with red shading along the edge when your turn signal is on and your vehicle detects an object or another vehicle in your blind spot.
Light Show:
The update adds “The Arrival” by Irving Victoria as a light show tune. You can play it right away after the installation schedule the show up to 10 minutes before with one vehicle or synchronize it with friends.
Interstingly, Tesla owners can now play multiple custom light shows from the same USB flash drive. To do so, the user needs to save the show files to a directory named “LightShow” inside the flash drive. Then, plug and play the light show.
