CarPlay
Took delivery of my new 40i today and upon walking me through the entertainment system, we could not find the CarPlay screen. CA said he was going to look into it. Is this just a software update?

My car play and other apps did not show up for 24 hours after I took delivery. Make sure you sign in to your BMW connected account (or create one if you don't have one) on the car profile screen. Next, go to apple car play on your phone under settings:General. Press and hold the microphone button on the steering wheel and the car will connect with apple car play

Car Play
I have a 2019 X5 4.0, Feb build. Apple CarPlay worked intermittently, and then about a month ago, it stopped completely and does not show up in media at all. I spoke to a genius about 3 weeks ago and they said it should be addressed with iOS 12.4 (I have an iPhone XS Max). I just installed 12.4 and...nothing.
Any ideas/suggestions? Oh, forgot - wife has iPhone 8 and when she connected her phone to bluetooth about 2 weeks ago it connected to Apple Car Play right away. |

I haven't used CarPlay in my new X5 due to the horror stories associated....everything is working just fine, and didn't want to chance messing things up.
Question: Is texting possible through iDrive without CarPlay? I think everything was set up allowing, but nothing happens. I have iPhone XR |
