Currently, the voice commands allow you to dial someone's number, navigate to a location, or play some particular music. What other voice commands would you like to see? Here are a few I would like to see:
+ "Heat to ___ degrees" or "cool to ___ degrees"
+ "Browse to ______" (to voice activate the browser)
+ "Tune to _____" (to tune to a particular radio station}
+ "Unlock"
Replicate all the functions on the wheel buttons:
Brightness to X%
Sunroof to X%
Media Select ____
And:
Driver profile to _____
Suspension to ______
Driving mode to _____
Un/Lock doors
Seri !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not a Tesla ding but she does a much better job of getting me what I want.
Is there a list of what commands are available? MyFordSync will (interminably) speak all commands available if you say 'help'. Maybe somewhere between the two?
Honk
I'd like the ability to dial a phone number that's not in my contact list.
Honk is a good one because it is impossible to give a friendly "toot" with the current horn "button" I have to lean on it to sound the horn and it emits a rude "blast" rather than a short beep. Future production needs less tension in the spring assembly for horn activation.
"Open the pod bay doors Hal"
Seriously - would be nice to have "Open frunk" or "Open hatch" (only active while in park).
Also - "Open sunroof", "Close sunroof", "Vent sunroof".
"Eject front passenger" "Eject rear passengers" ;p
"Defrost rear window" "Defrost driver side window" Etc.
actually, a "lift" command for the active suspension would be nice, instead of futzing with the screen in front of high speed bumps and high cement parking blocks.
I would also like to be able to custom program a single and double hand clap to some functions. I miss my Clapper.
While driving? What is the sound of one hand clapping?
lol! not sure about one hand, but 2 hands = "crunch!"
:-)
This is one surprise for me -- that the car did not have better voice commands. In a car so sophisticated in so many ways to have such rudimentary voice commands seems like a real wasted opportunity to impress. I hope an update comes soon. I very much like the idea above that all controls should also have a voice command. Also how about "Google search for..." or "Internet search for..." ?
Software updates. It will learn gooder English soon. Ish.

You can find a list of existing commands in the Release Notes: tap the "T," then go to Release Notes for firmware version 4.2. This is from memory, so you may have to look around.
How About: "Call Tesla service and tell them why you have shut down in the middle of rush-hour traffic with 210 miles left on the range indicator, and ask them to please turn on the 4-ways!"

Last week I have purchased the Tesla Model S P85+. I just wanted to share my thoughts on this car. Before I do that, I want to throw a caveat. I am just a...
