So I'm eagerly waiting for my 22 Premium AWD ER MME and have been reading up on PAAK, and being a tech guy, I'm super intrigued by the concept. I've been reading tons of threads on here, watching YouTube videos etc. etc. trying to learn as much as I can in advance of the car showing up. I also have to carry some keys to get in my work, so carrying a fob isn't necessarily a deal breaker for me anyways, but I do have a few questions that I haven't learned the answer to yet.
1) If I choose to use PAAK, and I carry the fob (because it would be attached to my key ring with the work keys I have to carry) would that create a conflict for the car that wouldn't be worth doing?
2) If I set up PAAK on my phone and my wives phone, and we ride together, is that going to create an issue/conflict?
3) It sounds like if you have PAAK set up and charge your car in the garage (which may have a beverage fridge in it) you will inadvertantley wake the car up each time you visit said beverage fridge with the phone in your pocket. Is there a quick/easy way (like toggle switch in the app) to enable/disable PAAK or some geo fencing feature that says ignore PAAK when I'm at home or something worth considering?
4) I've ready some people store the fob in a faraday pouch in the car so the fob won't be recognized by the car, but work as a great backup plan for a variety of scenarios (PAAK failing, valet, service drop off etc.) How well has that worked for people who do that? Any recommendations on a pouch? I kinda like this plan.
Thanks all for any input you can share.
