VERY IMPORTANT - Preparation for 4/8 ALP Firmware

[Abarth695]

Can I confirm that at this stage, to perform all firmware upgrades, those with the Bluetooth module have to remove the module and insert the controller?
This being the case I assume, when will AL change this?
I don't want to nor do I suspect others, have to pull apart parts of my dash every time there is an upgrade. Surely this can be worked into the App.
Thanks

Only the initial update needs the Control Module since the standard firmware shipped on the units does not recognize the Bluetooth Module. After you update the firmware for the first time all subsequent updates can be updated with the Bluetooth module connected and its actually a much better experience since it will show you the status of the update as its installing on the screen.
