Yup! Mainly want it to turn off the auto ac start on start up, turn signals on Hud and minor things like that.

Another option is mycarly. Used it on my past 3 cars to code simple stuff and read/clear fault codes. I know they have for Mercedes now, might have for Audi as well.

Or just put the light switch to 0 and then when you wash the windscreen only that occurs and not the headlights. Headlights only washed when lights are on. At least that was the behaviour on my non m5 f10

Mycarly didnt offer enough features for the M5 back then so I returned it....will try Bimmercode shortly

I've got some generic WIFI ODB2 port tool, and I've never used it, but would it be able to communicate with this app?
