Tesla vehicles are renowned for their revolutionary features. Now, imagine taking the Tesla experience to new heights with just a simple push. Thanks to the groundbreaking partnership between Flic and Tessie, this is now a reality.
At Flic, we’re simplifying life through innovative technology with Smart Wireless Buttons, not just for the tech savvy but for everyone. Our recent partnership with Tessie, the ultimate Tesla management platform, marks an important milestone in this journey. Together, we’re bringing a new level of convenience and control to Tesla owners worldwide.
The Tessie app initially aimed to make Tesla’s technology more accessible and useful in everyday life. Through continuous monitoring of the car’s activity and streamlined logging of trips and charging expenses, it uncovered substantial potential. This led to the development of an enhanced Tesla app, offering improved data, controls, and seamless integrations with smart home devices like Siri, Alexa, and smartwatches.
Utilized by more than 300,000 Tesla drivers, Tessie is a trusted platform for managing Tesla vehicles. Through the Tessie app, users can now also control their Tesla with Flic Buttons, enabling them to execute commands such as managing climate settings with a single push.
Overview
Here are six key commands made easy with Flic and Tessie:
Lock & Unlock Doors: Conveniently lock or unlock your Tesla vehicle from your home without looking for your key or phone.
Climate control: Start or stop Tesla’s climate system to cool down the car on a warm sunny day or just vent the car by opening the windows.
Defrost: Start or stop the defrosting process, so you can step inside a preheated car that is ready to go.
Front or Rear Trunk: Effortlessly open the front or rear trunk with a simple push from your home or your keychain.
HomeLink: Activate the primary HomeLink device, seamlessly integrating your Tesla with your home’s gate or door opener for added convenience and accessibility.
Seat heater: Place a Flic Button conveniently to start your seat or steering wheel heater.

Throughout our partnership with the Tessie team, collaborating on the development of this solution has been an absolute pleasure. As expressed by James Gragg, the founder & CEO of Tessie, Flic was a no-brainer choice as they expand their smart home integrations.
“Flic was a no-brainer choice as Tessie builds out our smart home integrations. It’s such a simple and versatile product. Being able to press a button instead of taking out your phone can make a big difference to people.”
James Gragg, founder & CEO of Tessie
With over 10 years of crafting smart buttons, we agree with James: pushing a button instead of reaching for your phone can make a big difference. This mutual understanding and shared vision have been instrumental in creating a seamless and efficient solution for Tesla owners worldwide.
When it comes to the integration process, James adds:
“The Flic SDK is easy to work with and quite reliable. I had a fully working prototype in just a few minutes. That was pretty mind blowing, honestly. I had a huge smile when it worked. The developer integration experience is as simple and painless as one could possibly want from an SDK.”
We’re thrilled to extend the reach of our Smart Button technology from the realm of smart homes to the automotive industry. This partnership represents a significant step forward in our mission to innovate and simplify life across various sectors.
