This one could be split into multiple ones I guess

After thinking about this, it's not possible to implement this without creating a server-side solution. These scheduled tasks must be persisted on a server, therefore the user token would need to be sent to a server. This would disrupt the goal of only communicating with Tesla servers directly.

Also, maintaining a task service for the releases will cost money and more maintenance, this would require a different model.

I may consider a solution like this if the app grows, let's see. Thanks for your input.
