?Got v3 token, but it was invalid - Watch for Tesla ..

[sn9500]

My husband and I both purchased this app for our Tesla’s and it’s been working fine tho I got the above on my watch last week when I went to use it and I have not been able to use the app since?

I’m not technically minded and my husband doesn’t know what the problem is either.

I’d appreciate some help please.

We have had the apps for about a month before this.

Both Tesla’s are under my husbands email tho that didn’t seem to be a problem for the first month of use ☺️

Thank you for your time.

Hey @sn9500

Yeah, please see my tweet here:

ADVISORY: On Friday 29/1-21 Tesla turned off legacy authentication. Now only MFA login will be supported. Impact is that login HAS to happen on iOS and then be transferred to the watch. It is NO LONGER possible to login directly on the watch. Please install the iOS app if missing. Thanks!

This will affect all third party apps from Friday going forward that have not updated the login mechanism.

Fortunately I did update Watch for Tesla three months ago, but you have to install the iOS companion app, since the login now require the use of a web browser, which is not available on the watch.

Please install the app from here - it's the same purchase as the watch app, so not a new or additional purchase.

Let me know if you have further questions or run into troubles.

Thank u so much for this.

I opened the app on my phone and logged in and in a few seconds my watch app opened up. So I’m not sure why I would need to use my watch if I have to actually open my phone to log in for access.

Anyway, I realise technology changes. I always have my phone on me so the app on my phone will be handy.

I appreciate your quick response 🤩

Best wishes,

Hey @sn9500

You only need your phone for that initial login - after the watch has logged in, it will run completely independently from your phone - as long as the watch can get some sort of internet connectivity. If you have an LTE watch, that would be mostly always, or if you have a wifi-only watch, the watch will still be able to join any known wifi network your phone has previously joined. So you can use the watch app completely as before - with that single caveat, that you need the phone for the initial login - as Tesla now require that you have access to a web browser while logging in (which is a good thing, it's much more secure!)

Thanks Kim, tho I think I’m missing something.

My husband and I both put the app on our phones when we purchased it for our watch and logged in. We could use the tool on our watch face for a few weeks until i got that message that I posted.

However after opening the app on my phone and logging in, a few moments later my watch app worked again.

I have an iPhone iwatch 3 which is able to take calls if that helps.

It does have wifi through my phone account so I can use it without having my phone with me which is great.

Cheers,

Sharon ☺️
