TDashOne app. Local Bluetooth. A live Tesla dashboard on iPhone.
Many Tesla models do not have a traditional instrument cluster in front of the driver. TDash connects locally over Bluetooth, requires no Tesla account login, and brings speed, battery, range, charging, doors, lights, tire pressure, and other live vehicle status to iPhone, giving Model 3 / Model Y drivers a clear dashboard experience at low cost.

01. Local Bluetooth
Use the key card once during setup, then reconnect faster.
TDash reads vehicle data over local Bluetooth instead of requiring a Tesla account or cloud relay. During the first connection, follow the prompt to authorize once with the Tesla key card. After that, reopening the app can reconnect faster for everyday live vehicle status checks.
02. Dashboard Store
Dashboard styles are updated from time to time in the store.
Different drivers prefer different visual priorities. TDash includes a dashboard store with themes, colors, kilometer / mile units, and display styles, with new instrument-panel designs planned over time.
03. Magnetic Mount Ready
No wiring changes, no power tap. Just use a magnetic mount.
Place iPhone where it is easy to see, and TDash can work as a lightweight Tesla secondary dashboard. It does not require vehicle disassembly, wiring changes, or tapping into the original electrical system, reducing the safety and warranty concerns that can come with added hardware while keeping speed, battery, range, power, and charging status easier to read.
04. GPS Speed Fallback
When Bluetooth is unstable, GPS speed can keep the display moving.
When the Bluetooth connection is unstable or vehicle speed data is temporarily unavailable, TDash can use iPhone GPS speed as a reference display. Accuracy may vary depending on location permission, environment, and device state.
Use Cases
For Tesla owners who want live vehicle status on iPhone.
TDash is designed for drivers who want fewer steps and clearer information. Instead of turning vehicle data into a complex control center, it presents speed, battery, range, charging, and vehicle status as a focused iPhone dashboard.
Key data while driving
Speed, battery, range, and charging status are shown together, making the iPhone useful as a clear secondary dashboard in the car.
Quick vehicle checks
Doors, lights, tire pressure, battery, and range are presented in a more glanceable way for everyday driving and quick confirmation.
No wiring changes or extra hardware
If you only want a clear Tesla dashboard without modifying wiring, tapping into the vehicle electrical system, or buying complex hardware, TDash can use your existing iPhone for a low-cost speed and vehicle-status display.
For drivers used to a speedometer
If you prefer reading speed from an instrument cluster, TDash can turn iPhone into a clear Tesla speed display, keeping speed, battery, and range closer to a familiar driving habit.
