Screen Mirroring
Hello, I was wondering if it is possible to screen mirror from an iPhone to iDrive 7? It says to download Miracast, but I don't know which one to get. I also hear that it only works with android, so before I spend money I want to know which app to download, and if it works with an iPhone.

Trust me, do a search here (my thread from Tuesday) or on Google and you will see there is no support.

Bimmer-tech offers a product that will allow screen mirroring for the iPhone. I checked compatibility with my 2018 M550i and it says it will work, not sure about ID7 though? It's also a bit costly at $697.

I am guessing that BMW lawyers did not want people to have the distraction of things like videos showing on the car screen. I also wouldn't pay $700 for it.
I am happy with Car Play with touch controls.

This one is all Apple. I don't think they allow any car maker to add AirPlay 2 support to a car with CarPlay.

Wheeeel… Where was this thread an hour ago?
Well…. I did rename my WiFi hotspot, found the password (only exists from communication window) And learned the ‘Option’ button will open new selections when a action button is highlighted. 😂 Also learned that when it says connect to screen mirroring… that is neither WiFi or Bluetooth, but rather Appleplay. I feel so smart and dumb at same time. |

I have a Samsung Galaxy S10+.
I can screen monitor very easily. Even while driving after coding. The drawback is that the screen on my I Drive 7 is about 2/3 filled in. It really looks silly and I dont use it. If it were full screen, I'd use it all the time. |

Since posting in this thread back in April, I have discovered that you can screen mirror with a jail broken iPhone and you can do it full screen. I'm thinking of getting a burner iPhone just for this to keep in the car.

Play a video off a USB drive or one saved on the car’s hard drive. Flick Idrive controller to left to get video relevant options, look for “Zoom” and save it as one of your selectable shortcuts via 1 - 7 numbers. Just use the shortcut number while using screen mirroring to stretch the display, not 100% full screen but almost there. Works on ID6 and Dont see the reason why it won’t work on ID7 as well 👍 |

Easier way is to open smartview settings on your samsung and set 'override aspect ratio' and it will be fullscreen, you can even set it to save your preference.
As for the subject, I have spare s8 in the glovebox just for this purpose so I can play anything I want on the rear screens. All I have to do is enable hotspot on my iphone so that samsung has internet. |

Hi guys,
I activated with expert mode, mirroring, video in motion, wlan, miracast in headunit 3000, 3001, 3002 and 3003 groups. I see now on my iDrive7 menu "screen mirroring" I see in iDrive7 display says : Miracast connect your mobile with bmw59864, I open on my Samsung "screen view" it founds screen mirroring bmw59864, but I can't get last request on iDrive7 to connect with question "would you like to connect yes/no". So everything works good until last step when I have to connect Samsung mobile with Miracast screen mirroring in iDrive7 to make screen mirroring connected. Does anyone of you had similar issue? It works perfect with my old BMW car and iDrive6, but with iDrive7, probably I forgot to activate some parameter with bimmercode and don't know which one in Headunit option |
