The jailbreak community did It. I have a 11ProMax 13.5 and jail broken with unc0ver. I Can across this and it freaking works, The mod costs $4.00. I always had a feeling it was BS that only android can mirror in BMW's

Portal is the app to enter freedom. That was a YouTube video mix I had playing & the other pic is the repo you need in Cydia

There's 3 pics but the 1st only looks like a advertisement

The limitation isn’t BMW, but Apple. The only Apple supported screen mirroring is AirPlay which they have just started to allow on third party devices.

Android and other devices use the MiraCast standard. Hopefully BMW implements AirPlay at some point.

Bmw exposed lol.

Now the question is-
what's the issue between Apple & Bmw? Is it about licenses? Because it sure ain't about hardware, this tweak worked flawlessly with no delays between both screens.

I've tried several other app's like MirrorMiraCast and nothing popped up when trying to mirror from that option. Interesting stuff

Probably just licenses and development cycles. AirPlay was just opened up to third parties with iOS 13 and Apple is now adding their TV app to third party smart TVs and not requiring you to purchase an Apple TV to use it.

I also don't know to what extent Apple has opened up. They may squeeze car makers to stick to CarPlay and leave AirPlay 2 to third party speakers and TVs .

More like Apple exposed. Its not a BMW problem, my daughter's non JB iPhone can't mirror to any of our smart TV's, fire sticks or SkyQ boxes whilst my Android mirrors to everything no matter what brand.

Couldn't you code to have the Apple Carplay occupy the entire screen as well?

Oh yeah I'm sure that code will make it full. I have Carly app and they have slacked since the G30's came out, so I gave up.

This works great in my 2020 G31 and full screen Just don't update your phone to 13.5.1, if you have then you need to downgrade to 13.5 for the jail break to work.
So, now got the car coded for video in motion and my lad can watch films and TV in the car!

Sounds like a lot more work than just letting them watch on their phone or iPad while you're driving.

Now the screen in the BMW is much more useful. Can share and control my phone from the touch screen.

Thanks for this! I just JB via unc0ver, but I'm a little confused on what to do next. What's the difference between Portal and Carbridge? You mentioned a repo in your post, but I don't see it in the pic. Thanks for any guidance!

Carbridge is the Cydia app you'll need and portal will be the CarPlay app on your Bmw screen.

How did you enable full screen? I got mine working but not full screen, similar to the OP's pics. Also, does anyone else have a delay between audio/video? The audio is not synched with the video for me. Thanks in advance.

It was full screen from the start. What version is your iDrive? I have a 2020 G31 with iDrive 7 (lite), this might be the reason??
I haven't noticed any delay.

It's a 2017 model so not sure which version iDrive that is. Is it possible to update to the latest version or is it more than merely a software update?

I dropped the car off this morning and my SA said the A/C definitely does not appear to be functioning properly. Hopefully the mechanics can figure out what is going on.

iDrive 7 is from late 2019 cars. I don't know if you can upgrade from 5 or 6.
