The brief time I was able to use remote start, I enabled it indirectly via the climate control/pre-ventilation option in myBMW app. I had not tried just remote starting the car directly. I also have this option enabled in the car, there was a checkbox in one of the climate control menu options. When it worked, it was a great feature for hot summer days when I'm getting my daughter into her car seat I can start the car and start cooling it off.
Agree on the first world issue, you can argue that having a brand new M3 is a first world issue, sure. But we should expect that all its features work as designed and when not, they're fixed/resolved.
