I paired/synced my iPhone to BRP connect a few days ago and am now seeing the smartphone network connection graph and the smartphone battery level indicator symbol on the dash. This seems reasonable. However, I just finished a short ride and did not connect my iPhone to the bike, I just left it in my pocket and both indicators were displayed. The battery level indicated high and the network connection low.

Questions; is this normal and I thought the phone had to be physically connected before the bike could see it.
