Although, now that I think about it, doesn't the BMW connected app also have an unlock feature? So phones already have a backup unlock capability. But the NFC would just make it a little easier.
The question here is that if I forget the key and unlock the car with the phone, can I also start the engine? Currently the BMW connected app can only unlock and lock the doors but unable to start the car.
