Tesla this week updated its app with native iPad and iPhone Duo support, adapting its vehicle and home energy controls for larger displays.
Previously, ‌iPad‌ users could install the iPhone app, but it lacked native support with a layout designed for the larger screen. The new interface essentially uses two columns, with navigation and controls on the left and a larger visualization of the vehicle or home on the right.
Tesla designer Alex Guichet announced the update on October 21, sharing screenshots and confirming support for Android tablets and foldable devices as well. The release arrives ahead of the ‌iPhone Duo‌’s launch on Friday, October 23.
The Tesla App is rolling out now for iPad, iPhone Duo, and Android Tablets and Foldables.
Finally on the big screens you bring around with you https://t.co/xfsqvMvTDa

The vehicle view provides access to features such as climate, charging, and security, alongside a large rendering of the car and shortcuts for vehicle controls. The home energy view displays power flowing between solar panels, a Powerwall, the home, and the grid.
Tesla’s design team reworked multiple views to take advantage of the additional space, with further refinements planned for future releases.
The update follows Apple’s opening of App Store submissions for ‌iPhone Duo‌ apps earlier this month. Existing iPhone apps can run on the device, but apps need to be built with the iOS 27.1 SDK or later to dynamically resize to fill its inner display. Unoptimized apps appear with black borders.
Version 4.62.0 of Tesla’s app is now available on the App Store for the iPhone, ‌iPad‌, and Apple Watch.
