SMS and email on f10 with iphone

Well... I have upgraded my iPhone with ios6 beta, and I am happy to report that SMS are working and the car reports email functionality. Still not working yet or I have not found how. But SMS is 100% working!

All over BT

Are you sure that it is SMS that is working and the BMW service messages (Assist/ Google Maps messages) that are actually working?

I too have tried iOS6 and all I get is the Office Today menu that shows three status text and each of them shows 0. 0 emails, 0 SMS, 0 Service Messages. If I send the car a google map message, the service message count increments - but no amount of emails or SMS sent to the iPhone actually show up.

Can you post some photos of what you see?

Thank you..

100% sure, I tried again!

The difference between the iPhone and the Blackberry (for SMS) is you only get the SMS sent while you are in the car, you will not get the SMS stored in your phone.

I only have one email account configured on my iphone (corporate Exhange Email account) so I don't know if there is a policy issue.. But I will be configuring a second one to fully try it.

Looks like we are on the right track!

I wish the conctact pricture would also be transfered like the Balckberry but so far this is a good improvement!

The last month or so the office functionality will only show emails & sms that arrive while connected to my BB 9810. It has stopped showing any previous messages altogether. So i don't think the issue is limited to the iPhone.

Office is checked. I get messages BUT only ones that arrive during the connected session.

Thanks.

iOS 6 wont be released until Octoberish with the iPhone 5 ... I the beta version as well. Lots of good new luxury features for sharing, notifications, etc but not life changing to me.
