Carista update news

It's not two separate touches, like other Toyotas- it's a long hold- it's supposed to be three, feels more like 6.

So, leave the car setting on driver's door only, then just long hold the driver's handle rather than short hold?

Coming from a vehicle that was build before this complexity existed (but used to the one-tap-two-tap method of other manufacturers)

I have mine so that the passenger door also works, and opens all the doors on the first touch. Then to open all the doors from the drivers side, just hold 3-6 seconds. The delay is longer than expected.

Anybody know what the DRL change does?

Thanks for helping me figure it out! I got it working as desired.

For the reference record: In the infotainment settings you set door smart access to driver only. Then when outside the vehicle, one 2-3 second hold will lock everything. If locked, a 2-3 second hold from the driver's handle will unlock drivers door only. But continue to hold without interruption for an additional 2-3 seconds beyond the first unlock will trigger the full vehicle unlock. If you break away at all or relese the grip, it resets the sequence.

Oh, and in case anyone else was wondering "two press unlock" being turned on translates to first fob unlock only doing drivers door and a second press doing all doors, rather than first press doing all doors.

Daytime Running Lights
Enable/Disable them (if you have your lights set to "auto" they are on by default. This being off disables them)

Personally I hate DRLs... In my observation all they have done is create more people driving around in bad conditions or at night with their lights off bc the drl give then just enough light they didn't realize they are driving around illegally

Something I’ve wondered, if I ever meet up with someone with a Carista could they just plug in to my truck and turn off the seat belt chimes for me one time and I could be on my way? Or is the app locked to a single VIN?

No, it can be used with multiple cars.
