On January 1st, Tesla officially launched its annual holiday over-the-air (OTA) software update, bringing with it over a dozen new features that span entertainment interactions, driving convenience enhancements, and dashcam functionality improvements. One standout addition is the new "Phone Left-Behind Reminder." This feature alerts users if a phone is detected inside the vehicle after the driver has exited. The dashcam system has also received an upgrade; it now records crucial details such as speed and steering wheel angle, providing drivers with more comprehensive data for review. For pet owners, there's good news too. The "Dog Mode" feature now allows real-time monitoring of the vehicle's interior temperature via iPhones. Additionally, it includes reminders for unclosed doors, ensuring the safety and comfort of pets left inside the car. Entertainment options have also been expanded. The "Tesla Photo Booth" feature enables users to take customizable selfies with a variety of filters, adding a fun and personal touch to their driving experience. Meanwhile, the "Paint Shop" feature allows users to alter the vehicle's user interface (UI) color, creating a more personalized and visually appealing environment. To further enhance the parking experience, Tesla has introduced holiday light shows and a "Rave Cave" mode. These features add a touch of festivity and excitement to otherwise mundane parking situations. The update is being gradually rolled out to Tesla owners, who can upgrade their vehicles via OTA at no extra cost, ensuring that all users can enjoy these new features without any financial burden.
