Enode Pause Sync Option

Enode periodically pings the vehicle. While this can be handy, it is harmful in the long run. It wakes up the vehicle multiple times a day for no reason at all. For example, this happens while parking at home or during work hours, even when there is no driving or charging that needs to be monitored. As a developer working in the automotive industry, I know for a fact that vehicle controllers only withstand a certain number of wake-up cycles. This capacity well exceeds the vehicle's intended lifespan, provided the usage remains reasonable. Waking up the vehicle every hour, or even more frequently, is clearly not a reasonable use case for an everyday driver. It can still withstand this kind of usage depending on the HW and SW development, but it’s better to be safe than sorry if you want to use your vehicle for 10+ years.

It would be great to have a dedicated button to simply pause the sync instead of disconnecting completely, as having to reconnect every time I want to use it is really time-consuming.
