Home link works well compared to posts I have read about it pre uPdate. One thing I can’t seem to find is a way to close the garage door when the car is off. Anyone know of a way?
Obviously unlike my I.C.E car I don’t really need to turn it off before closing the door, but years of that order (turn off the engine/car, then close the garage door) have proven to be a hard to break.

Just don't open your driver side door after you turn off the car so the PCM remains active and you can press your homelink button to close.

What is the homelink button you're using? I use the diamond touchscreen button on the dash, but that doesn't work after turning off the car. If I put it on the steering wheel does that work after powering off?

I just use the popup on the screen, and/or the one the icon on right hand side of camera mode. I started with using diamond button but when I realized the auto location popped it up I changed that to next track.

It’s stupid that you can’t do it via the Porsche app.
It’s great to have and I will miss my tesla app for opening and closing the gate at a rented spot.

Interesting I will have to try that again in the morning. In my experience so far When I power off the car the button is still popped up but it says not available if I press it.
