Garagedoor opener showing popup while located inside the garage #2

Open bwa opened 2 weeks ago

bwa commented 2 weeks ago

The garagedoor opener function may be tied to a GPS location.

Problem : When car is started or MMI is restarted, the popup is shown when car is located inside the garage, it's very annoying as it blocking MMI usage when shown. The user needs to just wait to it is gone after 15 very long seconds

Solution : This feature also exists in Audi Q8 etron and the 2019-2024 e-tron, but here it's implemented in far better ways. The popup only shows when car enters the GPS position from en another GPS posistion. It will never popup when car is started inside the garage. Solution is to implement this feature exactly as the Q8 e-tron.

An another way to solve this gracefully is to add a close (X) buttion in the upper rigth corner.

It's very dangerous to accidentally hit this popup if the car is located under the garageport and could face damage, so this feature is very bad implemented in Audi Q6 e-tron.

It's obvious that for some setup, when you enter the garage through a separate door, this popup may come handy, so it would be feasible is some cases. But it must be closable anyway, as it's blocking important features in MMI while showing.

And the wait for it to disappear, even if it is only 10-15 seconds, these seconds feels like hours ...
