I would never rely on just the app key because phone could die, break, get lost, etc

sorry but I don't really think you can blame @TeslaMotors for that. I wouldn't drive without my keys. @internetofshit @nomoketo
Replying to @internetofshit @RyanNegri
It needs cell service to use the cell phone to restart it. You can start it with the fob like a reg. car

@weemundo @RyanNegri you leave the keys at home. Unlock with your phone. But lack of signal is the car's fault. OK then.
Replying to @internetofshit @RyanNegri @violetblue
you can, you just need a key like any car. Never ignore a primary system and rely on backup only.

@diodesign @RyanNegri Or in other words, he knowingly set off without his car keys, relying on the magic of the internet?

Replying to @internetofshit @nblr @RyanNegri
No, because he forgot his key fob.

@BrendanEich @RyanNegri so why exactly don't Teslas enable unlocking via NFC? Any serious reason, or just bad Product Mgmt?
