Tesla has updated its iPhone app and supports live events.
The company’s latest version of iOS app is version 4.45.0, and will display boost information on real-time activity on iPhone, provided it runs iOS 17.2 or later.
When you plug into the Tesla supercharger station, the live event will be displayed on your iPhone lock screen and provide details about your charging session. This includes how much time you have left until the charge is completed, the estimated cost of the meeting, the power charged, speed and increased mileage.

The feature is beautiful because it allows you to quickly browse the location of your phone’s supercharged session. If you have an iPhone with a Dynamic Island (That is an iPhone 14 Pro/Pro Max or later), you can also briefly outline your charging session there and have a visual and textual representation of how much time it takes until the charging is complete.
Superchargers charge you free fees if you plug your car in for too long, so this can actually save you a few dollars if you are the forgetful type.

Unfortunately, the feature currently ends with boost. No home or third-party charges are supported.
However, according to the Tesla app, live events can one day support supercharged queue status as well as roadside assistance status.
