I think this is awesome
Hopefully it will integrate with the start stop system so that when I arrive at a red light the car won't turn off if the light is about to change |

Seems to me like a semi useful feature. Somewhat distracting to see this inside the car plus pay attention to the intersection esp. when most accidents are likely to happen at/around intersections.

Love it! This app is for those moving the deck chairs around on the Titanic.

Neet but useless app. Have no need for this and never will. How about an app that just tells you to look ahead down the road and pay attention to the lights. This app wouldn't even save me 1 second of time in rush hour when all the lights change at the same time.

Yes, that's exactly the purpose it will serve....to avoid unnecessary acceleration

My sentiments exactly on getting Waze or something like it instead. This app is totally useless in areas where you have severe traffic congestion. How does timing the light help when you can't even make it across the intersection in a timely manner to worry about the light timing? If this app were used in conjunction with an app that takes into account traffic, then we might have something.

This is junk. Something for cities to waste tax money on so the mayor can say they are doing something to help congestion and a company can get rich off of.
Guessing this is BMWNA's doing since this doesn't exist anywhere but two cities here in the USA? Sad when the first thing I do in my 70k BMW is install a phone mount because the software is a thousand times better in my 700 dollar Iphone 6. Don't worry BMW, all the other manufacturers are horrible as well. God forbid you do anything to stand out. I'm guessing research has shown its better to spend money on marketing then products. Ok, done ranting. Last edited by Myaddiction; 07-28-2015 at 08:05 PM.. |

Bmw's connected drive app platform is a complete joke. Its seen no major update interms of overall architecture since it was originally released. The app switching rarely works properly. Apps often run slow and sometimes never start properly. |
