Please refer to our Privacy Statement and Terms of Use as well as the FAQ for important information and additional details regarding your rights and obligations with respect to the use of Tesla Control.

Why Tesla Control?

I am a Tesla owner and enthusiast. Early in my ownership experience I learned that Tesla does not provide an official app for Windows. But I wanted to be able to monitor and control my car from my Windows Phone and on my PC's both at home and at work.

So I started this project to fill that gap. While Tesla Control started primarily as a personal solution, it has been made available for other owners to use if they wish.

What exactly is Tesla Control?

Tesla Control is an unofficial Windows Store app for monitoring and controlling Tesla vehicles. It supports the Model S, Model X, Model 3 and is ready for the Model Y!

Tesla Control includes several unique features including Alerts, EcoStats and Leaderboards not found in any other Tesla apps. Not even the official iOS and Android apps from Tesla Motors!

Support Tesla Control!

Writing and maintaining a quality app takes a lot of work. The author hopes to keep the basic version of the app free while continuing to add support for new features and support for new Tesla vehicles.

Why are advertisements shown in the app and on the website?

This is a common question! App developement is a costly and risky endeavor. Unfortunately, few small independant app developers break-even let alone earn a net profit on their efforts.

It can take many hundreds up to thousands of hours of research, development and testing to create, publish and maintain a high-quality app. Additionally, an evolving regulatory landscape, for example the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) while great for consumers significantly complicates app development. Each new regulation further increases app development and operational costs.

Rather than require users to pay up front for Tesla Control, or offer a limited trial period, we have chosen to offer the basic app to users for free. That way, our users can take their time to evaluate Tesla Control and decide whether it meets their needs.

Tesla Control has already been updated over 77 times to add new features and address issues reported by our global user community.

If you use Tesla Control and enjoy the app, then purchasing one or more of the available add-on upgrades is one small way to help offset the significant and on-going development, test and operational costs for the author. Tesla Control started as, and continues to be, a passion project for the author. It is not a profitable enterprise.

The core functionality of Tesla Control is based on technology provided by the open source TeslaJS library. TeslaJS in turn relies on the prior work of a great many dedicated Tesla owners. The author of Tesla Control has made the TeslaJS library available for others to use free of charge.
