Sentry Mode Alerts

Know Sentry Mode
is on. Without checking.

A Telegram message the instant Sentry Mode turns on or off — confirm it activated at your destination without pulling out the Tesla app.

01 / The habit

You park, turn on Sentry, and... hope.

Sentry Mode is one of Tesla's best security features, but confirming it's actually active means opening the app and checking the toggle — every single time you park somewhere you care about. It's a small habit that's easy to skip when you're in a hurry, and easy to forget to double-check.

WattsonBot removes the "hope" part — you get a message the moment the state actually changes, in the same chat you're already in.

02 / What you get

Sentry Mode, plus everything else.

Sentry Mode alerts are one of nine automatic notification types included in every plan — sent to Telegram, no configuration needed beyond the toggle in /alerts.

🛡️

Sentry Mode toggled

Sent when Sentry Mode is enabled or disabled on the car.

🔓

Car left unlocked

Sent when the car is parked and unlocked.

Sent ~35 seconds after plug-in and charging begins.

⚠️

Trip summary with distance, efficiency, and cost.

📅

Monthly report

What it doesn't do

WattsonBot alerts on the Sentry Mode on/off state — it doesn't access or forward the camera recordings themselves. Those stay on the car's USB drive and in the Tesla app, exactly as Tesla designed it. Read-only access also means it can't toggle Sentry Mode for you; it only observes and reports.

03 / Setup

Live in about 5 minutes.

WattsonBot connects to your Tesla with a read-only refresh token and starts watching immediately — no cameras, no extra hardware, nothing to install on the car.

04 / FAQ

Fair questions.

Does it alert when Sentry Mode turns on?

Yes — a Telegram message is sent whenever Sentry Mode is enabled or disabled, so you can confirm it activated without opening the app.

Can it turn Sentry Mode on or off for me?

No. WattsonBot uses a read-only refresh token and can only observe and report state, not send commands.

Does it forward Sentry's camera recordings?

No. It alerts on the on/off state only. Recordings stay on the car's USB drive and in the Tesla app.

What other alerts come with it?

Charging, low battery, TPMS/tyre pressure, car left unlocked, and drive-ended summaries with cost — all in the same $5/month plan.

Is my Tesla password shared with WattsonBot?

No. You log in on Tesla's own page; WattsonBot only ever receives a revocable refresh token.

What does it cost?

$5/month for the Solo plan — one car, all 9 alert types, 16 commands, stats and history. Free trial included.
