Jump to a specific month in the calendar view
If I want to look at the one-month calendar for 6 months ago (e.g. to look up exactly when I went on some particular trip), I have to open the calendar for the current month and then hit "Previous Month" 6 times and wait for the calendar to load each time. It would be nice to be able to select a year and month in the calendar view directly.
API proxy
Instead of implementing a few one off API calls how about implementing an API proxy? Such a proxy could be used by other systems instead of talking to Tesla directly. Then we could leverage the sleep abilities you've built to prevent greater vampire drain by only having 1 system talking to Tesla.
An example would be my home automation system. Instead of polling Tesla directly, causing 2 systems to keep talking to my car, I'd just poll against teslafi. I could retrieve the cached information from teslafi and do more advanced automation of my vehicle without incurring a bigger battery cost. Teslafi could return cached information when another system is asking for data and actually make the data calls when another system is asking to turn something on/off.
It could even be expanded out to only allow another service to do certain calls if one were so inclined. So that certain data could be shared but the car couldn't be unlocked/started/etc..
Myself and others would pay an extra monthly fee if...
Myself and others would pay an extra monthly fee if you could alert me when my windows or doors are open for XX or more minutes while parked / idle!. (user sets XX)
Helpful if left open by accident, and when fob activated door inadvertently while in my pocket!
Also alert me if Fob in car for XX minutes while parked/idle! Wife left purse, I left keys in jacket ETC ETC. The Tesla app erroneously reports that the car is locked when it is not. Anyone could get in and drive off!!!!!!
Different languages to set
I would very much appreciate it if you could also switch TeslaFi to German. I would understand many better! Thank you so much!
Car not sleeping since 2019.24.4 73fb1ab installed on 25/07/2019 9:40 AM
I have been a TeslaFi user for almost 2 years and rarely had any issues. I do not believe that this issue is related to TeslaFi, but want to see if any other users are experiencing it.
Since installing the above update, the car will not sleep. I've tried extending the length of the "try to sleep" window, and even disabling polling for a day, but the car remains awake always.
Sentry mode is not enabled, Always Connected is set to OFF and Energy Saving is set to ON.
Anyone else experiencing this?
Does anyone think the UI could be improved?
TeslaFi is great, and has tons of data, but it's a little hard on the eyes. I don't have many specific suggestions, but think a sit down with a UI designer could lead to some aesthetic improvements, the current UI is pretty basic and crude, essentially a bunch of tables and red backgrounds. The data itself is great, but the UI being so dispersed and distracting can make it hard to consume the data.
Suggest a "PAUSE ALL POLLING" button on main page
I know there is a "Logging Enabled" checkbox in the settings, but it is a binary on/off feature. What I am asking here is that for occasional testing purposes and hiding locations or other data, to have a quick ability to temporally stop ALL polling of any kind to the car, without having to go back in later to turn it on in case we forget.
example might be "Pause polling for 1 hour" and "Pause polling for today".
While at it. I suggest some additional description under the settings checkbox for "logging enabled". It is not totally clear if turning on/off that checkbox applies to all polling of any type, or just the capturing of data. In other words, if unchecked, does TeslaFi still poll the car to see its status without waking up?
Really nice work here folks.
Download charge activity at home
would like to be able to download charging time and costs, including costs for home charging.
With Tesla new API pricing, how much will TeslaFi go up per year
Now that Tesla announced API pricing, sounds like it will cost the average user $10-$50/month accessing Tesla's API. Any guess what TeslaFi will be increasing their rates to cover for that?
Speed Efficiency Speed up to 265 k/mh
Here in Germany our "normal" speed on the autobahn is 160-180 and often I go up to 265 therefore can you extend the page "Speed Efficiency" to the Tesla Max speeds ?
