In the old Porsche Connect App I was able to remotely switch on external lights, but this function seems to be missing in the new My Porsche App or maybe I just can't find it - anyone know if this is possible? Thanks.

Don't think it existed in Porsche Connect (now deprecated) and it definitely doesn't exist on My Porsche App.

I couldn’t recall that feature in old app as well.
Question: if you unlock the car (by app), do lights go on?

edit: no, they don;t. Just checked.

Yes, we could unlock the doors, switch on lights and even sound the horn!

Lock/unlock the doors and activate the horn is still possible with the myPorsche app. Only thing missing is flashing the headlights.
