Ideas For Expanding Remote Vehicle Functions

[OneAlienBoi]

So let me start by saying, the weather where I live is totally bi-polar, Utah weather is notorious from going from 80 degrees and perfectly sunny to a thunderstorm in the span of a few hours. Need to get that out there for context.

I was thinking, we can already use the Fordpass app for a variety of functions, like starting the vehicle, checking tire pressure, turning the lights on and off, etc. But wouldn't it be cool if you could also roll the windows up and down from your phone?

So many times during the summer, we leave the tops of our windows cracked to vent heat from the interior out, or for other reasons. Then when it unexpectedly starts to rain, I have to run outside and roll the windows up while getting drenched. I'm sure I can't be the only one. We also like to roll our windows up at night for obvious reasons.

I know it's a first world problem, but I think it would be cool if that was a remote option in the future. With that in mind, what are some remote functions all of you would like to see incorporated into future vehicles?

Not from your phone, but if you have a Lariat, you can enable global open/close from the keyfob. See this other thread.

Telling me the status of the door locks - either locked (all 4) or open (at least 1).

I know I can just click on the button to lock the doors if I think I forgot but the long press clicks are painful at best.
