It is, but the minimum requirement is a “low pressure” notification when tire pressure drops past a certain point. So instead of a gauge you’d get a warning light.
I can see the tire pressure of my truck though the app and I don’t pay for any Toyota subscriptions. The only thing I’m aware they lock behind a paywall in the app is remote start, but you can still do that from the key fob for free too.
On the newer vehicles they do also lock the navigation behind a paywall but you can just use CarPlay or android auto for free.
Even Toyota is doing this now. They locked features like the digital tire pressure gauge behind a paywall on their app.
Isn’t a tire pressure monitoring system legally required on all cars now?

No longer an idiot/warning light. It’ll now be called a “poor’s light”.

I think it was only free for a limited time when you buy the car, they might have changed it since then though.
