At least the Z4 soft top seems to require you to be standing by the car. But, I don't take any chances.

With the new app, none of my cars support digital key on my S21+ phone. Maybe I should start using the cards....

Well that’s bad.... I’ve also read in other threads where storing the key fob too close to the car in your garage can drain the battery. It sounds like there are some usability corner cases to be aware of.

Thanks for the heads up!
I leave my FOB in the car all of the time as she's garage parked. It's been a year and I've had zero issue with battery drain on my M340i.
