Interested in an unofficial Apple Watch app?

There seems to be another ongoing outage with Porsche Connect today. I've set up a statuspage to start monitoring these outages as they're becoming surprisingly frequent: https://electricsidecar.statuspage.io/

https://status.electricsidecar.app/ will be the main URL once DNS/SSL certs propagate.

Guessing this is related?

Yeah there's a global Porsche Connect outage at the moment. These typically last ~6 hours based on the last 5-6 of these outages this month.

Have the new updates to the screen been pushed through yet or are you still working on that?
By this I mean the one with the map etc
Thanks in advance

Storage mode hasn’t been pushed out yet. Will have to wait til Porsche connect is back online before I can because I still need to test the new endpoints.

Continuing to make progress on Storage Mode. Working on a flow for entering/leaving the mode that surfaces relevant details from Porsche's official bulletins and correlates them with current data from the car:

Morning and thank you for developing this application. I followed the steps to get things loaded up / installed and noticed that some of the Complications on my Apple Watch does not match what I have seen other folks have. I can only access the Range and Charge %. Is there something I am missing? Thank you!!

if you’re referring to the battery history widget, that one can only be added to watch faces such as Modular Ultra, that support rectangular complications.

Or were you referring to something else?

Thank you for the reply.

Correct, I was referring to the Battery History and Preheat/Cool. I noticed a user was able to use the Modular face and have 4 Complications, Charge %, Range, Batter History and Pre-Heat/Cool.

 

[slowpoak]

I have just done it to the Modular one?

Was referring to this layout.
Sorry for the spam..

 

[electricsidecar]

No worries! Questions like this definitely aren't spam.

The climatization control should definitely appear as an option for any circular complication, but the battery history one will require one of the larger rectangular complication spaces that are only available on watch faces like Modular and Modular Ultra.

Which kind of Apple Watch are you using? And which Electric Sidecar complications do you see when editing your complications on your watch?

I am using an Apple Watch 6 Model M07H3LL/A2294

When using the Modular face, the bottoms 3 complications (left, center, right) only show Charge % and Range as an option.
The middle center large rectangle complication does not have any options for sidecar.
Within the Sidecar app in settings I only see 2 widgets that I can edit, Charge and Range. These happen to be the only 2 complications I see in the watch.

It's possible you're running an old version of ElectricSidecar on your watch. You can check by opening the app on your watch, going to Settings > About. You should be on v1.4.0-40.

 

[slowpoak]

Looking like Version v1.3.3 build#3

 

[electricsidecar]

Ahh yes, that'd do it! You'll need to manually update via TestFlight. In the Electric Sidecar page within testflight the app's main button should say "Update". If not, then check the "Show App on Apple Watch" switch on that page; if it's off, you'll need to toggle it on to update the app.

If the app says it's up-to-date and "Show App on Apple Watch" is already enabled, then you'll have to delete the app from the watch and then reinstall it via TestFlight.
