2014 5 series vs Iphone 5s (ios7)

I have just found out that BMW Office app does not work with iphone 5s (ios7).

Does anyone know how long it takes BMW fix these type of issues? What can I do to fix this problem?

It really bugs me paying so much $ for a car and not being able to use all features. I feel like its such a waste of money. On the other hand, a friend of mine just bought a new lexus IS and he has no problems with lexus version of office (text, email). His car doesn't even have nav. This aggrevates me even more.

In all fairness, it's documented on the BMW website:

You can receive emails if you quit the email app and restart after you have started the car. These can be read from the office app. Calendar works fine as does text messages....as long as you only want to read and not send. I'm getting a new snap in adapter (more $$$ to achieve something that should be standard IMO) which should let the plug in functionality work, not sure if that will make any difference.

It takes a while to load. Try a different browser. I attached a screen shot of the form filled out for a F10 and iPhone 5s.
