Also don't forget to code out the alarm that goes off if you lock your car with an adapter attached.

Riiight, gotcha thanks!
Just one more question😅What exactly is the difference when it comes to user interface bwtween wifi and bt? Does the wifi work just like the bluetooth, where you instead just pair it on wifi settings on your phone, or?
