Tesla App 4.5.1 Release Notes

Charge Stats

Tesla Charge Stats feature in update 4.5.1
Available Worldwide

This is an undocumented change in this release.

With app update 4.5.1 Tesla is adding a new Charge Stats section.

You can now track how much you pay to charge your Tesla and the savings when compared to a similar gasoline vehicle.

Charge Stats shows your vehicle's charging statistics over the last 31 days. It'll break down each charging session to show you how much you charged, the cost and the type of charging, whether it was at home, at a Supercharger or Other.

An 'Other' charging sessinon refers to any non-Supercharging session that is not at your home location.

In order to figure out costs of charging and savings, Tesla automatically uses electricity costs and gasoline prices in your state.

The costs for Supercharging are exact as Tesla knows exactly how much you were charged.

You're also able to customize your electricity cost at home and the electricity cost for 'Other' charging sessions.

Note: The car must be on software version 2021.44.25 or higher and you must have data sharing enabled in the vehicle.

Live Activity support for Supercharging on iOS 17.2+. Status updates will start automatically as soon as your charging session begins.

Editorial note: The live activity is also supported on the Apple Watch. When your phone is in use, Tesla supports Apple’s Dynamic Island, displaying your percentage charged and estimated time of completion.

However, while your phone is locked, the live notification displays a lot more information, including:

  • Percentage of charge

  • Live total cost

  • Current power in kW

  • Charging speed in miles charging per hour

  • Total energy added (kWh)
