iPhone X on iOS12

The issue:

When I plug my phone into the car via USB, the car plays audio / album art etc. BMW Connected Drive detects the phone and says 'Apps Loaded' - but no apps are actually loaded; and the BMW Connected app on my phone does not react top my phone being plugged in.

If I unregister my car from the Connected app, hit 'Add Vehicle' and plug it in, i get a 'connecting' prompt, and then it fails. I have also tried reinstalling the app, and using my wife's iPhone.

I have tried both phones in my wife's BMW F31 (65 plate), and Connected Drive works absolutely fine. Apps load up without a problem.

Here is a video of what happens:

Any ideas?
