Victron Blue Smart 17 Amp shows in app after input power is turned OFF

I am using this Smart Blue charger as shore charger in my camper.

I like the fact I can set it with the same parameters to match the other Victron chargers like the MPPT and the DC-DC, but it is not very smart if it still shows in the app hours after input power has been disconnected.

You will probably find the Bluetooth is powered by the battery.

It's what I think but seem to me it's a flaw. I am not sure if this device can have a firmware update or even if this kind of problem can be fixed by a firmware update as it may be a hard wired circuit. But it's Ok, I will add a little relay with a coil powered by the charger input voltage and a NO contact to disconnect the output, so when power is OFF, it kicks it off the app.
