Bmw knows how paranoid owners are of people parking next to their cars. I sense that this app will get a lot more usage with this feature

So it stitches together a 3D view based on the surround cameras, and overlays what I assume is a default picture of your 5 series.

Does the color match your car?

Can coders swap it out for an M5?

No, you need Parking Assistant Plus.

I was wondering about this as well. I don't like the generic graphic in the perspective view though, BMW could've and should've done better.

Just wanted to chime with a fact about this system that I haven't really seen mentioned. BMW Connected limits the number of times you can refresh the Remote 3D view image to protect the cars battery.

You can only refresh the image 3 times every 2 hours. It isn't a live view that's constantly updating. Still useful, but don't get too excited about the idea of monitoring your car 24/7.

Unfortunately color of the car doesn't match your car, I believe it always uses silver.


That being said, I think this would come in really handy when you leave your car with a valet lol

Is this limited to a ~1 mile range from the car like the map locator is?

Nope, but neither is the map locator? Not on newer cars at least 2016 onwards from anywhere but you need to ticket GPS in idrive.

Anyone else found this a bit unreliable ? I would say it's probably worked when I have tried 20% of the time.

Good when it works though.

How do you get this to work? I ticked off the Remote 3D view in the privacy section. I still don't see it from the app. Does it take a few hours for the option to become available? I'm on android, BMW Connected App (not the old Remote app)

So far you can't use this feature on Android as far as I know, it only works in the IoS app...
