TslaMirror is an app designed to mirror your iPhone apps to your Tesla’s built-in browser.
Instructions for the Tesla built-in browser:
1. If possible, update your Tesla’s infotainment system to the most recent version.
2. Make sure the vehicle is PARKED (0 mph / 0 km/h).
3. Connect your Tesla to your iPhone Personal Hotspot (cellular data required). MCU2 or MCU3 hardware is required: available on Model 3 and Model Y, Model S built after March 2018, Model X built after March 2018, or vehicles upgraded from MCU1 to MCU2/3.
4. Ensure the iPhone is not in Low Power Mode. Launch the TslaMirror app and toggle on “Proxy.”
5. Tap “Start,” then select “Start Broadcast” to begin screen broadcast.
6. In your Tesla’s built-in browser, go to https://TslaMirror.com
7. Pinch in the browser to zoom in or out.
8. In H.264/H.265 mode, lossless audio playback is supported in the browser.
9. In MJPEG mode, only video is mirrored. For audio, use a Bluetooth connection from your iPhone to the Tesla’s speakers.
10. Keep your iPhone unlocked; due to Screen Broadcast API limitations, locking the screen stops casting and requires restarting the broadcast.
Key Features
1. No additional internet traffic is used for mirroring; traffic stays on the iPhone’s Personal Hotspot. However, while the Tesla is connected to the hotspot, the vehicle may use your cellular data for its own internet access.
2. Private: the screencast is only available to devices connected to the iPhone Personal Hotspot Wi-Fi network.
3. A 5 GHz Personal Hotspot (supported from the iPhone 12 series) is highly recommended. Do not enable “Maximize Compatibility” on iPhone 12 models; enabling it forces a 2.4 GHz hotspot.
4. H.264/H.265 mirroring recommendations:
– MCU3 (AMD Ryzen): H.265 mode with 720p@60 fps recommended, as 1080p requires higher bandwidth. MCU3 supports up to 1080p@60fps (H.264 and H.265).
- H.265 playback is supported only on MCU3 or newer hardware. If your browser runs on MCU3 or higher-performance hardware, we recommend choosing H.265. H.265 delivers the best video quality.
– MCU2 (Intel Atom): H.264 mode with 540p@30fps recommended.
FAQ
