Once your assistant is connected to the car, "use the app" turns into "just ask." Here are 25 real prompts, grouped by what they do — every one of them works through plain conversation.

Climate

  1. "Pre-condition the car so it’s comfortable when my last meeting ends." (more)
  2. "Warm it up 15 minutes before my first calendar event each morning."
  3. "Max-defrost the windshield — it’s freezing."
  4. "Turn on the seat heaters and steering-wheel heater."
  5. "Keep cabin-overheat protection on while it’s parked in this heat."

Charging

  1. "Charge to 80% by 7am on weekdays." (more)
  2. "Only charge during my off-peak window after midnight."
  3. "Bump the limit to 100% tonight — road trip tomorrow."
  4. "Start charging now," or "stop charging."
  5. "Lower the charging amps so I’m not maxing the circuit."

Location & security

  1. "Where’s my car?" (more)
  2. "Flash the lights so I can find it."
  3. "Honk the horn."
  4. "Is it locked? Lock it if not."
  5. "Did I leave any windows open?"

Status & daily info

  1. "Give me a morning briefing for the car." (more)
  2. "What’s my battery and range right now?"
  3. "Did the overnight charge finish?"
  4. "How’s my credit balance for this month?"
  5. "What’s the cabin temperature?"

Trips & navigation

  1. "Send this destination to the car’s nav."
  2. "I’m leaving for a 200-mile trip at 6am — make sure it’s at 100% by then."
  3. "Wake the car so it’s ready when I get out there."

Smart home & messaging

  1. "When the car arrives home after dark, turn on the porch lights." (more)
