I bought some NFC tags and I’d like to setup one to open the frunk. But I keep seeing everyone give instructions to set it up with Stats on iPhone. But $50 for an app I have one use for seems ridiculous. Are there any other, more affordable options? Thanks!

Neither cost much and the stats are fun.

> Then Tesla needs to add Siri support.
Why "add" what's already there?

FISHEV is a known troll of several years standing and several user names who pushes an anti Tesla narrative. Please take his opinions with a grain of salt, avoid any advice he may suggest, and do not let him implant any Fear, Uncertainty, or Doubt about Tesla or your car into your own opinion.
So.. regarding Apps. Tesla, the crowd that makes the car, says Apps are Not A Good Idea. Our resident Troll who may or may not be a natural human being, says to do so. Who you going to believe?
Note: I'm currently driving a 2018 M3 LR RWD since 9/2018. I've never really felt the need for an app, any app. The car works just fine without, and it's got 25k miles on it now. There are risks with any app, especially with regards to security. Just because some SW developer can build an app and potentially sell it doesn't mean that they'll be there when Things Go Bad; the opposite, rather.
Now, using things like A Better Route Planner which _don't_ connect to the car, that's OK, and you can take your chances with your incremental position being sold with those guys.
But FISHY's interest in pushing apps is _not_ to help people: It's to get people to think that it's _necessary_ to put apps of partial functionality, confusing UIs, inadvertent power-drain (like, say, those that don't let the car go fully to sleep), and similar on the car. People who actually take FISHY's advice and put all those apps on a car stand a high likelihood of being disappointed, or even stranded.. and that's what FISH is after. Being a disruptor and a Troll.
There isn’t a lot of ‘data’ that bit-heads like to delve into so that may or may not be a minus.
