Read back a few posts in this thread. So far the only known dealer-configurable option is this, given that window control with the fob was the only other known 981 option and has since been made not dealer-configurable.

Apparently, Porsche powers the OBD2 when the power is off. This means that an OBD2 GPS tracker will kill your battery!
Not sure why I haven't seen any issues with the OBD2 connection for my Valentine-1 yet.

BMW does too, thought this was standard. But not everything that's accessible through OBD2 while the power is on is accessible with it off, because although the port is running, not everything in the car you could talk to is. The V1 probably doesn't draw enough current to create an issue for a car battery.

I would power a V1 or GPS device from the OBDII port. Better to used a fuse piggyback connector with a separate fuse for the device. The OBDII port is not intended to power a peripheral and I would be concerned that a excessive current would damage it.

I just noticed that popping either the hatch or the frunk also unlocks the doors (or maybe just the driver door for people who have that selection configured). I first noticed it with the hatch and kind of understood the rationale since the hatch grants access to the cabin area anyway, but I was surprised to discover that even opening the frunk unlocks the doors. On most if not all other cars I have experience with, opening the cargo area does not automatically unlock the cabin, so I have to remember to lock the car with the fob each time I open the frunk now.
I guess I was mislead by the noises it makes while waiting and by the fact that my Turbo was 100% locking the car automatically if the doors weren't touched.

There is a thing on it in the manual as if you leave someone in the car there is so kind of motion sensor that will activate the alarm if you dont do something
