Latest iOS update

ezaircon4jc · 07-06-2023, 02:07 PM

Anyone else having problems with losing the phone connection daily? I have to remove and reinstall my phone daily to access music streaming. When I try to check "apps" in the settings, I get a message that I may need to open the app. Both Pandora & the My BMW app are opened on my phone, but the "connecting" circle just goes on & on and never connects. If I delete the phone (also forget the device on my phone) and start over, everything works fine... UNTIL I TURN OFF THE CAR, then it's back to square one.

The phone seems to still work.

edit:

It's iOS 16.5.1

I still have Pandora as a source option intermittently. When I select "apps" in the manage devices option, I still get an endless trying-to-connect. I've deleted the phone and reinstalled many times.

I’m using IOS 17 beta on my 2023 M550i. I had to manually connect the first time, but all connects fine, no drops or disconnects…all apps work normal. iPhone 14 Pro Max here.

Same here, I am on Beta 3 dev. No issues and enjoying the updated Apple Carplay. Looking forward to Sharing control with other 17 users when it is released.

My "apps" connection still keeps coming and going. I don't use carplay.

I did a little (short) experiment. If I have Pandora open on my phone, whether the phone is off or on, the apps don't load. If there are no "open" music apps, the apps seem to load just fine. It takes probably a minute or so, but Pandora will load and start. Maybe the system is designed this way? I'll have to experiment more...
