The iCar Pro will connect using an Android or iOS smartphone/tablet and will use WiFi or Bluetooth. I use BT and it connects instantly. Moreover, I can add it as a trusted device to Smartlock .... meaning the connection stays live even if the phone's display is off.

Opening the rear exhaust flapper actuator valve is a one click operation.

No need to buy a dummy plug (BMW Part No. 18302411427) with the need to tie a piece of wire to hold the actuator in the open position once you have opened it electronically.
Are you saying that you can open it once and it will stay open even after you turn off and restart the car?
