Had Iphone 6s plus. Car play worked like a dream.
Switched to HUAWEI mate 9 pro now which uses android system. No more car play.

I'm in a loaner right now (woot BMW) and it has apple car play on wireless Bluetooth.
I'm def not smoking anything, so Harman better correct it's press release... Btw, the Integration is so good I'd trade my car in, literally changes how you use your iPhone in the car.

Some things in CarPlay are nice to have but lots of issues in my 2017 F80. Maps always start at the entire US level ( like WTF?) and when a message comes in forget about your music or whatever else you were doing, it's gone until you deal with the message. Half the time the damn thing doesn't connect and start working but it looks like it has. But no sound comes out! Yesterday I could answer calls but not hear anything. Got out of car and phone worked fine. Rarely have issues just using iDrive. I'm using an iPhone 6s on latest iOS.

Not interested in Apple. Both Audi and MB offer Android auto as an option. Its about time BMW wakes up and caters to the majority of cellphone users out there.

Ps it uses the car's wifi (no hotspot needed). That part was freaky ( I shut off Bluetooth AND disconnected my phone and it kept going! ) Quote:

Wireless CarPlay is available in the 2017 X5 which started production last summer with the introduction of iDrive 5.0. |

Wireless Carplay is available in almost every BMW model Range. The few that dont yet have it, like the X1, are supposed to get it later this year. All got it after it started life in the G30.

No it did not. At least not if you are implying the G30 started production before it was rolled out to other models. The G30 started production in November. Guess when the F15 started production? Need a hint? It was three months before G30 production.

First car ever fitted with the system was a G30. Remember G30 production started long before customer G30 production back in 2016

I would agree that on any other vehicle media interface the apple CarPlay would be superior but BMW just gets it so right with Idrive. |

I remember when iDrive first debuted on the E65, it was hated by almost all but 15 years later it really has come a long way that today we are saying its implementation of the navigation and in car entertainment is superior to Apple. Kudos to BMW!

I guess I'm the only one that isn't an iDrive fanboy. It's alright but has lots of issues managing contacts and music. I prefer Apple CarPlay.
