Tesla Updates App to V4.60 Adding Passkey Support, Powershare Features
The update also includes improvements to Tesla Wallet functionality for users.
Tesla has released version 4.60 of its mobile application, introducing passkey authentication support alongside enhancements to Powershare functionality and Tesla Wallet features.
What Happened
The Tesla app update to v4.60 adds passkey support, allowing users to sign in using biometric authentication or device-based credentials rather than traditional passwords. The update also includes improvements to Powershare capabilities, which enable compatible Tesla vehicles to power homes or external devices, along with refinements to Tesla Wallet functionality for managing payments and transactions within the Tesla ecosystem.
Why It Matters
Passkey support addresses a common pain point for Tesla app users by offering a more secure and convenient authentication method that eliminates password vulnerabilities. For owners of vehicles equipped with Powershare capability, such as the Cybertruck, the enhanced functionality provides greater flexibility for emergency backup power and off-grid energy management. Tesla Wallet improvements streamline in-app transactions related to Supercharging, merchandise, and other Tesla services.
The Bottom Line
Tesla's v4.60 app update brings meaningful quality-of-life improvements focused on security and energy management features that align with the company's broader ecosystem strategy.
