My BMW app
I already searched and was unsuccessful...
Apparently the ConnectedDrive app is no more and is being replaced by the My BMW app. I stupidly deleted the CD app and installed the new one. I suspect the new one is for G+ chassis cars and just plain sucks, at least for me, in my 2014. Anyone else with an F car have this issue? |

After waiting an inordinate amount of time, the BMW APPS finally loaded. The new app doesn't have the amount of fuel left/distance to empty or the driving range map. To me, this "upgrade" is actually a downgrade.

I upgraded to the new My BMW app the other day and my 2014 X5 still has the same limited (free) features. I can still do a few remote things like "find my vehicle", aux ventilation, turn on lights, honk the horn etc....but most of all...I can still use the maps feature to send a destination to the navigation system.
Once I send...when I go to the car, all I need to do is go to the Connected App place in iDrive and look for MESSAGES. From there you can transfer the address you sent to your nav system. I will miss this when 3G goes down for the last count.

Can't seem to get the app to work at all for me?
I have a profile on the bmw website with my f10 and f15 added to my account. When I go to add a vehicle it gives me an error every time on my iOS device. I had connected drive app previous no issues. |

May need more. I have an acquaintance that is working on this now; he is a BMW whiz. He updated me on his progress and so far, the parts alone are at least $2K. It's more involved than just upgrading parts. He hasn't got to the coding yet.

1. Purchase from eBay and the seller will even do coding for you. It will be a direct plug and play. It used to be around $1200-1300 but now is around $1500-1600. You will not get ATM or connected service. 2. If you want connected service and know how to modify/run wires, it will run about $800-1000 for everything. Best is to get the ATM and HU from the same car to have matching FSC. You can purchase pre-made wires from ATM to HU or you can modify an Ethernet cable and run it from ATM to HU and then code it. |

The atm is not hooked up yet - waiting on my evo to do my project. However - shouldn't the app either a) show me my vehicles like the website does or b) let me add them without error? |

If one got an ATM and an Evo from the same vehicle - would there then be no coding needed since you would code the evo to the atm vin anyway? |
