Haha had to give the app a go in visionOS just to see what it looks like. As expected, it's currently just a blown up iPhone app as an iPad app in AR ?. I don't see any support for widgets of any kind in visionOS, so I suppose the app itself will need to be optimized for the hardware. In time...

Thanks for making it available in TestFlight. Looks also great on the Lock Screen :cool: (updated the screenshot)

It looks like it’s not updating for you in this screenshot; did it eventually show your charge state?
It did not update because I have no VIN yet ;) But I could use the simulated car, thanks to your app update.

Just downloaded the app, very nice. Only problem I see is I don’t have any information on the watch widgets.

Can you share a screenshot? The initial setup of watch apps and complications is sometimes a bit finnicky sadly.
it appears fine when I put it on the phone. Just missing it on the watch.

Apologies but not sure I understand your question i.e. you seem to have both Electric Sidecar complications on your watch face - no? See my comment in pic:

They just started working this morning. Maybe it just took some time to upload the information.

Man, not sure I'd have your patience in respect the onerous Apple App review process - hopefully they don't completely wear you down!

As soon as the app’s actually in the App Store I’ve got a whole slew of ideas and features I plan to add :) mainly just want to first confirm that it’s viable/worthwhile investing in building the app by making sure Apple actually allows it on the store ? Worst case scenario I’ll just set up a Patreon
