While most developers are keeping their apps under wraps for now, a new third-party Tesla app created by Eleks Labs gives us a glimpse at how Tesla owners will be able to control and monitor their cars from their wrists.

The app is only designed to work with Tesla Model S cars for now, but it will allow drivers to easily check the status of the car's battery life, mileage, and temperature. Drivers will also be able to unlock and lock the doors, control the headlights, and a map screen that shows exactly where they parked.
