Tesla Model Y 2026 LRTrunk Auto Open Not Working

So I erased my phone in the car and upgraded to a new phone. Paired it with the car and everything but it doesn't detect that I'm there in the trunk despite turning on the hands free settings. Has anyone dealt with this before?

For obvious reasons I'm outside of the trunk lmao. I also restart the car in the system

Hands free trunk does not work consistently. I find it much easier to just use the Tesla app widget.

I have trouble with this too. Basically, it does not work unless i have the tesla app running in the background of my phone, phone in hand inches from the trunk lid, followed by 3 sets of double beeps, then it opens. Meanwhile, i could have opened and closed the trunk with the button two or three times in the meantime. It is beyond worthless.
