Connected App woes...

I don't even know if i want this car. Connected App simply refuse to work. Car never updates and not a single remote function works. I called BMW few times to only hear lies raging from " It is worldwide outage" , to "reboot idrive and phone and wait for 30 min... "

Sorry to ask, but does anyone have any idea what could possible be wrong?

What MY is your car?

Generally speaking the app works fine. It will occasionally have issues accurately reflecting my battery charge levels. But otherwise works.

I had more issues before the November Update was installed at the dealership. The November update addressed the issue with the app not detecting that my car supported Remote 3D view, but seems to address a lot of the weird issues I had with ConnectedDrive.

Getting the dealer to update you to the latest software may help quite a lot.
