This is not installing apple car play to a car that never had it. It is simply subscribing to a service. If it isn’t pre-installed as part of the cars software at the factory you can’t do this.
That is correct, he says the car hes incident have it factory installed..yes it was otherwise he wouldn't have the Apple CarPlay compatibility message.
I m going to get bmw x3 30e plug in hybrid model 2020 year xDrive 30e Advantage Live Cockpit. This doesn’t have carplay. Can i get after getting the car?
Hey, i have a series 1 (114i) 2014 and i can see the CarPlay button on the wheel, but i don´t know how to make it work. Can you give me some advice? Thanks in advance.
Not free if it wasn’t available at that time. I have to pay $1400 to get this on my corvette plus leave at the dealer for a few days ( they replace the whole infotainment) I’ll pay $300 any day.
I drive a 2016 G12 with iDrive 5. Can I upgrade to iDrive 6? If that upgrade can be made, can I then add Apple CarPlay? Thank you so much for a response.
BMW has a one time purchase and comes standard with some models. Kia and Hyundai are monthly subscriptions in some regions or complimentary for a limited amount of time
Brilliant. I’ve just bought a 2017 4 series, taking delivery of it in a few weeks. Forgot to check if it has ACP already installed but at least I know I can still buy it now.
@@ShanesAutos I'm buying a 430i that is a 2017 model, It doesn't have apple carplay but you're saying that you didn't have the option to purchase applecarplay?
@@Ib3tr0lling so my car is a January 2017 model so it’s a prefacelift model, BMW update the 4 series in February 2017. I tried to buy apple CarPlay through the app but it said it wasn’t compatible with my version of iDrive. I’m not positive but I think iDrive may have been updated in February but I’d need to check. Is your car a facelift model? Edit: I’ve just don’t some reading and you need to have iDrive 5.0 to use apple CarPlay and iOS 9.3 or higher.
I never see the ConnectedDrive Store appear !?! ….. but I se the Vehicule apps list … Spotify whethe etc…. What I have To do? I really want apple CarPlay :(
You need to have Apple car play pre-installed in your car for this to work. This video only shows how to activate it if its pre-installed. If your car is not factory fitted with Apple car play, it won't show you the option. My new fully loaded 530D M sport (g30) also doesn't have it!! You can decode your VIN to check if your car has Apple car play. functionality built in. It will show up in list of features.
This is adding a subscription. I have a 2018 X2 with entrynav2. No Car Play pre-installed or option to purchase. I had it downloaded and installed for $119.00 from an aftermarket provider.
Best thing to do is go into your connected drive and see if it’s listed as an app you can purchase. Im new to BMW ownership so not sure what version of iDrive is in your 2015 car.
It doesn't work in a 2018 X3, unless you have already from factory installed. We have every single option and packages except Apple CarPlay and when I try to access in the menu the only thing showing me that I can purchase is the concierge service for $100
I, too, have a 2018 X3 (G01). I didn’t worry about the Carplay option because this video said you can install it on any touch-screen iDrive 6 system. I learned the hard way after buying my car that this is incorrect. You must have wireless charging to have the CarPlay hardware prep. Then you will see CarPlay available for purchase in the Connected Drive store. SMH.
This does not work on my M2, there is no apple car play option whatsoever in the menu to the right. I get all the other services bar that one. Any ideas? It’s just not there on my Idrive. This is just subscribing to it, if it’s not in the cars software on purchase then it’s clearly not there!
Hold up, you for real have to pay $300 for an app that’s free in every radio you can buy, even a $100 Walmart special?lol I bet there’s a video on RU-vid to show how to get it free
@@user-gn1hk5fx8u checked a little more, different radio in the 16 then the 17. I think it requires an add on android box of some sort to have carplay, the 16 has the NBT, 17 has the NBT EVO. Unless you know something I don't?
