BMW Connected Last Ride Info

Hi All,

Is anyone else experiencing issues with the "Last Ride" information in the BMW Connected App?

I always like to check my "Efficiency" after each trip. However, over the last few days it fails to update regularly. For example, when I log into the app now it shows my Last Ride as being last night at 8:29 pm (which was my drive home last night). It did not record my commute this morning and has been randomly failing to record this information.

I know the App has glitches but just wondered if others are encountering this issue.

Thanks.

I get the notifications after every trip without fail (iOS). But I'm in the UK, so our apps might be slightly different.

Maybe that's a 530e or d thing but my 540 in US doesn't show any of that. Maybe I just don't know where to look. I really want to get BMW to work with Samsung SmartThings.

Yeh that may be a 530e thing. Have a 540 in the uk with the latest version of the iOS app and I don't have that option.

It's not a 530e only option as I don't have a 530e. In the iOS app, it appears in the activity tab after every trip. You get a notification if you've enabled notifications from the Connected Drive App.

Download from the App Store
You will require your bmw connected credentials to enter.
I think you need remote services . Think that was an option originally (£60 in the uk) when I bought mine but I think is standard now.

Anyway if you have remote services for your car you should be able to use. It

Push notification on my iPhone and Apple Watch via the BMW Connected app. Use your credentials from the ConnectedDrive website and have the last seven digits of your VIN.
