BMW Connected App on Android
I have a Samsung S7 running Android version 7.0. My car has enhanced Bluetooth with wireless charging.
I have downloaded the two BMW Connected apps from Google Play Store. I can register the car using the vin number but I can't seem to get the car to connect to the app. I can get screen mirroring to work. Everything else from phone calls to text messages work. When I use my wife's iPhone it connects. I tried my phone in the dealers demo model which also had enhanced Bluetooth and I got it to connect. They are not very tech savvy at the dealership and don't have a cure. Has anybody had any luck using BMW Connected App with their Android phone? Any advice welcomed. |

But even before I had that, I could connect to car and see basic stats (Miles traveled, fuel left etc. Oil changes due that type of thing.. Remote services lets you open doors, lock the car turn lights on, and cool the car down remotely

In your car have to first enable it to be 'found' by clicking the checkbox in your car (I think under communication - BMW connected services options). You need a remote services subscription (£50 one off), and you need to register your car via the online BMW Connected portal first too...

Might get the remote services subscription anyway as it will not break the bank (€80 here in Ireland). Not sure it will do much though. |
