It's as though the car wakes up, unlocks, and says hello when I drive it.
BTW, the Welcome screen is interesting. The name used is tied to the service contract and can only be changed at the dealer. You really should be able to configure it on your own to say whatever you want.
Actually, I think it uses the name you specify in the Online BMW Connected account (you get there through a web browser, not the app). It takes about a day to update in the car. That’s just the name, not the “Welcome” greeting.
