Im annoyed by this as well. Im often not home when it’s done, and it will stay on until next day (it needs me to press OK)

I tried the app and it offered me one firmware update when I connected the printer to the cloud for initial setup and test. I skipped that, because I first wanted to test if everything works after the package was damaged by delivery service.
But then I realized that the Bambu Handy App disabled wireless charging of my Samsung Galaxy S24 (for whatever reason) - so I uninstalled the App.
And after testing the printer through the cloud I put it into my private network in LAN only mode which is what I want.
Even there Bambu Studio uploads my designs to the Bambu cloud from my PC when I want to print it locally. That’s not what I want.
So I removed internet access for Bambu Studio.
The result: I cannot start a print on my H2D in LAN mode anymore.
What I still can is accessing the printer via network, sending files to it and watch it print. But no option to directly print or send an file and then print from the USB storage remotely. I need to go to the room where the printer stands and start the print from the USB storage there.
So far my experience.
So I really want a downloadable firmware file that I can put to a USB drive to update my H2D offline.

So Bambu Studio still uploads our files even when everything is set to LAN mode? I was of the understanding that LAN mode disabled any cloud uploads.
I wish there was an option like ‘Do not upload user files to cloud’ so I could continue to use the cloud for syncing preferences etc but not for my design files.
Uploading our intellectual property to a cloud we don’t have control over isn’t ideal…
Not sure if anyone has done it yet, but at my company, we are about to attempt to have the H2D and a slicer PC completely air-gapped on a specific VLAN for only the printer. Idea is, H2D in LAN only mode, with Bambu Studio on a PC with just a NIC connection to the same VLAN as the printer. No talking to the outside world, just dropping prints and hopefully sending them to the printer. I’ll let y’all know if we’re successful.
@SupportAssistant When will we have the firmware update that enables USB Firmware updates? The fact that this does not exist already is extremely annoying, and once we air-gap our H2D, it will never be allowed on a non-secure network again. This means we are literally prevented from taking advantage of all the latest features and fixes as they come out. USB firmware should have been enabled since day 1.
