Can I monitor someone borrowing my Tesla without setting up a restricted profile?

Yes. Sentry Driver doesn’t rely on a restricted driver profile or any special “loaner” mode on the car.

Because it uses Bluetooth owner detection, the app checks whether your owner phone is present. When a friend, family member, or someone else borrows your Tesla and your phone is not detected, Sentry Driver treats it as a monitored drive and starts sending timely alerts based on your rules.

There’s nothing to hand off and nothing for the other person to set up:

• No restricted profile to create or switch on
• No special key or key card to pass over
• No app for them to install

You just lend the car as usual, and you stay informed about how it’s being driven. Learn more about monitoring a borrowed or lent Tesla.
