New update on the toyota app removes the ability to read tire pressure all together. It's not included on the app, it doesn't matter what subscription you have. Called toyota to confirm and it looks like and oversight.

You might as well have been talking to Bozo the clown. Toyota's "help" line is a joke.

I got the CarTrimHome tire pressure indicator module (Free Shipping Smart Car TPMS Tyre Pressure Monitoring System Digital LCD Dash Board Display Auto Security Alarm for Toyota Rav4 2019 2020 2021(RAV4 LE Model [Not a hybrid version] Shows PSI, XLE / Limited / TRD / OTHER shows kpa)). Shows the tire pressure on the MID. Easy, plug and play, install. Only problem is it shows the pressure in kPa for all trim levels other than the LE. (Easy to mentally convert kPa to PSI -- divide by 7)
I got that one too it's pretty cool. The car should have come with it. Thank god it's only $30 bucks and 5 minutes to install.

I tried to update my software. I got the message to update. I followed the instructions, got the code on my iphone, and before I could input it, the update in the car timed out and it says the network is not available and to try later. Go figure. I tried it several times and no worky. I’ve had this problem with updates before. Also the information telling you how to do the update and access the screen isn’t clear. You have to be clairvoyant to make it work. Or interpret more than what the actual words say.

I found that the Toyota app works best if you delete it. Buy a digital gauge and check your tire pressure monthly, or buy the module from China and have it on your dash display.

On a basic Jeep Compass you can check tire pressure while driving by toggling the buttons on the steering wheel and it will display it on the screen right in front of you. This is the way it should be for safety reasons. Let’s say you are driving on the freeway at night and it is cold and stormy and you get a low pressure alert. Is the pressure 1 PSI or 30 low? You need to know this to make the decision to pull to your the side of the busy freeway or keep going to a safe location.

You can also display engine coolant temperature, engine oil temperature and transmission temperature. The Compass also has a compass.

It's also a Stellantis...

I can see the tire pressure on my iPhone using the Toyota app. I open the app and then it shows my XSE I look toward the bottom of the app for Vehicle Status. I tap on the Vehicle status and it shows Doors, Windows and Tire Pressure . Further down there is a red button that says See Details. Tap on it then it shows the tire pressure. And when it was last checked.

FYI I am running the latest App.
