The Tesla app is horrible about this.

What does a greyish padlock icon indicate? Let me tap it twice to cycle through states, then I’ll click once more if the original state needed to be toggled. If there’s any delay in the car’s response, prepare to complete another lock/unlock cycle, more slowly this time to be certain.




It’s also inconsistent. From what I remember, the padlock toggle shows the current state (an unlatched padlock means the doors are unlocked, and pressing it will lock the doors), but the trunk button shows the opposite (an open trunk means the trunk is closed, and pressing it will open the trunk).
