Tesla iOS App Updated with Control Center Toggles in iOS 18

Tesla has updated its iPhone app to version 4.38.0 which includes the following features (via Tesla North):
- Commands can now be executed offline when in proximity to the vehicle. Requires vehicle software version 2024.38+
- Add your favorite commands to Control Center in iOS 18
Yes, that’s right, you can now send commands even if you don’t have internet. Tesla says car software 24.38 or newer is required. According to stats from the popular third party Tesla companion app, Tessie, the majority of Tesla owners are on car software 2024.32.7 or 32.10 right now.
Also new are Control Center toggles for the iPhone in iOS 18. This means you can add shortcuts for Lock, Climate Control, Charge Port, Frunk, Flash, Honk and Fart. No shortcut for the rear trunk yet. This allows for a quick shortcut to perform these actions right from Control Center (swiping down from the top right of your iPhone).
