I love the digital key / remote app. I don’t use my key fob I only use my BMW app, it’s a very useful feature. Thanks BMW

Very helpful information! Awesome app.

Glad you found the video helpful! The app is definitely great!

Hi, thanks for the very informative video. I have bmw x1 and it showed few features like locking/unlocking and heating that you could turn on. I disconnected my phone and tried to install these features in my wife's phone and did not succeed. I tired linking my phone again but it does not. Any idea or suggestions will be welcomed. Thansk in advance.

Great video! Just out of curiosity, how much fuel would be used with a/c on, and the engine idling for 15 mins?

@bmwofmorristown9038 Год назад

Thank you, glad you enjoyed! Good question, we aren't sure exactly, but it would be a negligible amount. The cars are very efficient at idle.

2017 bmw x5 does not have remote engine start right? Because I can only see the ventilations

@spicycolony Год назад

Thank you for that informative video. I actually do have the app and use it for my 2015 X3. However it seems like to have much much less content - it does not even show fuel levels - just dashes... But maybe it is too old for that. One question however: if the car is closed and armed and then a break in is happening: will the app actively inform me about the fact that the alarm went off?

@bmwofmorristown9038 Год назад

You're welcome, glad you enjoyed the video! That is correct, older cars do not have access to all of the app's features, like newer cars do. The app does not currently have an alarm alert feature, but that's a good idea for something they can implement in the future!

@qinghai1 Год назад

The remote start works for vehicles as old as a 2015? Was told remote start only worked for 2019 and newer. I have a 2017 x3.

@still3geavv886 7 месяцев назад

Is it possible on your 2015 car to start it from the app to put on the heat during winter ? Thanks for your answer

@yavuzbulak8326 8 месяцев назад

Great video ,but I want to know my 2019 440 has no remote engine starts feature with key fob now. After purchase remote service from myBmw app can I able to remote start engine and control ventilation?

@bmwofmorristown9038 8 месяцев назад

It may or may not be available for your car. The only way to know is to go to the ConnectedDrive store and check if remote start appears under available services.

@ibarnev 8 месяцев назад

Thanks for the video. A little question - the App is working brilliant on my 2018 X3, but I'm afraid of using climate function because of draining of the battery.

@bmwofmorristown9038 8 месяцев назад

You're very welcome. As long as your battery is in good health, don't worry about the preconditioning hurting or draining the battery. The car won't let you use the feature if the battery state of charge is too low.

@ibarnev 8 месяцев назад

Wonderful ! Thanks I should try then! @@bmwofmorristown9038

@talkandplay Год назад

is it still only the samsung s21 and google pixel 6 android phones that can be used as a digital key? Was hoping more android models would have been added by now.

@bmwofmorristown9038 Год назад

Latest info seems to suggest that you are correct, but I expect more models to be compatible in the future.

@trishonya 8 месяцев назад

Do you know if the App remote start function will work with my 2019 X3 M?

@bmwofmorristown9038 8 месяцев назад

You'll have to check the ConnectedDrive store in your BMW app. If it is available for you car, it will show up there.

@calc1588 Год назад

Started working fine then stopped. Was 5* now 1*. Hasn’t updated all week. Still thinks my car is in Devon, I can’t control the car and gives meaningless car charge data. Spoke to my dealer that sold me the car (this month) - I suspect is a known glitch. Followed their steps - waste of time / effort. Looking on forums, I am not alone! BMW - sort this out!!

@JohnCostanzo Год назад

So for the 3d pictures/video, why do we not see you standing next to the car? Does it hide the people it see’s?

@bmwofmorristown9038 Год назад

No, it will show people standing next to it, the app view was just not updated. If you look closely you can see me walking away from the car.

@corkyzinkan5583 Год назад

What is the greatest distance from which you can remotely start your BMW and can it be remotely turned off? I am thinking 800 to a 1000 miles.

@bmwofmorristown9038 Год назад

Using the app, the distance is in theory infinite, as long as the car and phone used to start it are both connected to WIFI.

@zischannel7250 Год назад

Does it work by LTE or bluetooth? Can I remote start the car from anywhere or the car has to be nearby?

@bmwofmorristown9038 Год назад

It's via LTE/wifi, so you can do these controls from anywhere!

‏ I recently bought a BMW x5 g05 model 2020 from the Copart website in America and it needed a simple repair. I have one inquiry. I cannot operate the my bmw system in my country, knowing that I live in the state of Libya. I also cannot find the country’s maps. Can you help me? Thank you. It was an enjoyable experience. For me

@bmwofmorristown9038 11 месяцев назад

Unfortunately, being a US-based dealer, and receiving US-specific training, I don't believe I'm the right person to ask. I would inquire with someone more in-tune with BMW's operations in your local area.

@lancebeden5039 Год назад

How long does the app work? My 2019 X3 just stopped working with the app - says I need to pay $120 for a subscription now...

@bmwofmorristown9038 Год назад

The cars come with a subscription for connected services from new for free. When this expires, the app will stop working. However, you can renew the connected services subscription whenever you like!

@PlayBoiiM 10 месяцев назад

Does the unlock feature work with the bmw 640 2017

@bmwofmorristown9038 10 месяцев назад

Not entirely sure if the old 6 series is compatible. You can download the app and enter the VIN and assess compatibility there.

What about remote parking move?

@bmwofmorristown9038 10 месяцев назад

Available now on the LCI X5 and other models.

@i3017 Год назад

so, say if you park at a parking lot of a baseball stadium and you're nowhere near a WiFi, then you cannot connect your phone to your car, is that correct?

@bmwofmorristown9038 Год назад

The only requirements are that both the phone and the car have a connection. If the car is parked in an area where there is cell service -- it will work. The phone also needs either wifi or cell service.

@i3017 Год назад

@@bmwofmorristown9038 so, do you need a separate cell service for the car?

Would this work on a 2012 320D?

you need a subscription to access all this stuff? it wont allow me to even check fuel level it says i need a subscription. I'm new to BMW so just checking see if that's true dealership didn't tell me nothing about that lol

@bmwofmorristown9038 Год назад

Technically yes, although the subscription on new cars is for 3 years. If your car is older than that you'll need to renew the subscription.

@@peeesoool You may have some connectivity issues. Try restarting the iDrive system by holding the radio power button for 30 seconds, and make sure the app is updated to the latest version. Also check that there are no remote software upgrades available for your car.

@jb.2986 Год назад

BMW has come a long way with the App. Not as user friendly and fast as Tesla. One thing that would be extremely helpful in the app is the ability to open and close the rear hatch. Love this feature on our Tesla as well as the live drive location which BMW does not do. It does take a snap shot of where the vehicle is located which is partially helpful. BMW can do better though. Thanks for the informative vid.

@bmwofmorristown9038 Год назад

You're very welcome, glad you enjoyed the video! BMW has definitely advanced the app tremendously. They are constantly updating and adding features, so I wouldn't be surprised if those things came in a future update.

@jb.2986 Год назад

@@bmwofmorristown9038 Hopefully soon. I have emailed them those suggestions and others which I believe are necessary for BMW to be competitive in todays smart phone market.

@d5lopez45 Год назад

Please add CABIN OVERHEAT PROTECTION just like tesla...moving from tesla to bmw back again but that's a cool feature I'll miss.

@CB-ft8zw 8 месяцев назад

He said the app would NOT have helped which means the app would not have stopped his car being stolen.

@p.chrisr8106 6 месяцев назад

If he had the app like I do he could have known where the car is and notify the police. My son took my X3 without my knowledge and was surprised when I told him where he was at because he told me he was just two blocks away. The app is very useful.
