Google Maps and the HUD
Does anyone know if you can get Google Maps info displayed in the HUD or instrument cluster when connected via Car Play? Or is this reserved for the iDrive navigation only?

CarPlay hijacked my idrive screen last week to take over navigating. The hud and cockpit stopped displaying.

Carplay supports that feature but BMW needs to implement it.

It's something I believe Mercedes implemented in their HUD. Given a terrible reputation of CarPlay support in BMW and their Android Auto ignorance I wouldn't count on it

Google wants too much data from the car, BMW said no.

When you say this, do you mean with respect to BMW not supporting HUD for Google apps (Waze, Google Maps, etc.) via CarPlay on an iPhone? Or BMW not supporting Android Auto?
Also curious as to what your source is for this. |

The iOS 13 update should bring the possibility of this feature to Carplay.
However BMW still needs to update for it so no timeline on that and gathering from these forums I think their dev team is already very busy fixing iDrive 7 quirks/features Waze with HUD would be amazing! |

I've seen several people from different markets mention they were told OTA updates were coming to their car starting september and that does coincide with the iOS 13 release. Who knows.. Fingers crossed If they get OTA working we might see fixes coming in at increased pace and numbers. |
