Surprising New (?) Feature on Auto Folding Mirrors 2019 Niro EV

So, I've noticed something new my 19 Niro EV seems to be doing. It seems like it just started happening a few days ago, but it could be longer. I updated to the new software several weeks ago, but I don't think it's been happening that long.

So, I have the power folding mirrors, and I have them set to 'Automatic' on the switch on the driver's side door. Historically, when I locked the car, the mirrors folded in - when I unlocked the car, the mirrors fold out. Simple as that.

Now, however, when I lock the car, the mirrors fold in as expected. But, the mirrors now automatically fold out when I approach the car, before I've unlocked it. Kinda cool, but it never did this before.

Anyone else notice this? Anyone know when it started?
 
It's been a feature that can be selected in the Convenience menu behind the steering wheel.
Enjoy!
