My BMW for Positive User Reviews
✓ BMW Connected Drive AppI use the app routinely to monitor the health of my X5 45E and I enjoy the pre-conditioning function which allows my family to warm or cool the vehicle in advance of a trip. I also use the app to set the navigation system for a trip which simplifies the process. The app monitors tire pressure, systems checks and reminds me when the car needs servicing. I can book an appointment with the dealer inside the app itself which is really helpful. The app also informs me of MPG and MGPE and compares my performance versus other users. The app also allows me to unlock the car, take a picture of the car in its location and from my phone (and Apple Watch), I can unlock and drive the car without a key FOB. It’s a great app and I would highly recommend it to others..Version: 3.12.1
✓ One happy customerAbsolutely in love with my new car , her performance is nothing I’ve experienced before , and the customer service I received at BMW St. John’s was nothing less then exceptional .. highly recommended to anyone.Version: 3.12.1
✓ Amazingly convenient!I never thought I’d depend on an app for my car so much, but then I got this app and here I am checking it everyday lol. I love that I can check how much gas I have without being in the vehicle so that I can plan out a gas station stop before I even leave the house. Since I live in Deep South Texas it’s really hot pretty much all year round (try 90° in October) so the start A/C function on the app has been amazing! I can start the A/C right before leaving the house and walk into a completely cooled car. I also love that I can lock my car with the app, because my keys can really get buried deep in my purse so being able to lock my car with my phone is very convenient when I can’t find my keys in my purse right away. There are so many other features of this app that I haven’t tried yet, but if they’re anything like the basic features I’ve mentioned then I’m sure they’re great! Overall I really love this app and if you have a bmw but don’t have this app, we’ll idk what you’ve been doing but you’re missing out..Version: 1.6.3
✓ Solid appLegit polished app, never gave any automaker a 5 star. Thumbs up BMW!.Version: 4.3.2
✓ Best car appNo rivals have an app like that! Great app! Well done BMW!.Version: 4.3.2
✓ 20 X3M Comp - No Remote 3DDespite having the capability, which worked flawlessly for about 8 months after purchasing the car, I suddenly lost this function in the old application. It simply stopped connecting. Now this new application doesn’t even recognize that I have the feature enabled, which I do. I’ve done a lot of research, tried every suggestion and reset, waited for updates and restarted iDrive to no avail. Given the amount of problems I see reported online with the remote 3D functionality, it would be helpful if BMW addressed the issue inside of the application. It would be helpful to have a proactive list of problems with troubleshooting suggestions. The only I options I see is scheduling a unique dealer visit or waiting until a normal maintenance schedule. The new application isn’t otherwise bad at all, but it lacks a clear way to communicate something that may have happened to my remote 3D feature that seems relatively common, again based on frequency of online reporting. If the app had a solution, communicated better, perhaps with a more robust troubleshooting/help section, it would certain seem to me worth 5 stars. It’s the the only thing I can think of holding it back at the moment. After all of the features this car has, the best when parked, is hands down having the car send a photo of its surroundings..Version: 1.4.3
✓ Greatest car appLove the UI and how simple it is to use. just wish it had lock/unlock notifications directly to the phone, say my partner unlocks the car, would like to be notified..Version: 3.12.3
✓ No.1 this app.Remote start is one of my favourite in winter and now I have it. Hooray…!!!.Version: 3.11.1
✓ MyMBW is so cool…BMW is by far the best business lease in the USA, I’ve been driving a leased BMW since 2009 in the USA, before I had a BMW in Australia a 320d and prior, in the 1990’s I also had two, a 740iL and a 325i, these cars weee the most reliable and least expensive to maintain of all the vehicles I’ve ever had, I’m completely sold in the BMW brand and their product, currently I have three in my garage ranging from a top model to a racing model and an economy model, I love BMW and will drive one for the rest of my life, it’s so sad that diesel vehicles cannot be imported to the USA any more, the BMW diesel is truly an amazing technology! The MyBMW app is very integrated into the driving experience and works seamlessly, I highly recommend!.Version: 1.7.2
✓ X3It's a very much functional vehicle. Getting the drift of things with this vehicle.Version: 3.12.3
✓ Worse than the app is replaced and that was about as bad as it got.It got one star because I couldn’t leave it at zero. Each iteration of the BMW App gets functionally worse yet looks better. Unfortunately style points don’t cut it when it’s 100F outside and I can’t remote turn on the AC (which was one of the main reasons for buying the BMW i3 over its competitors a few years ago) and now they’ve gone one further by now even reporting the battery level and range correctly. Just remember to check it on the car rather than using the app. The charging functions are just as bad. The app tells me that it send a message to my car instructing it to charge immediately but alas no... the dash still has the clock signifying that we’re waiting until I either move the car so I can change the setting on the dash or I wait until midnight and low rates kick in and the preset timer (which I didn’t want to use tonight because there’s not enough time to charge) starts the charge process. Thankfully I pay off the car in 12 months and will be able to buy something that works....Version: 1.4.1
✓ Finally BMW got this rightAfter a decade finally bmw connected got their app right. Great job to the it team that built this app!.Version: 3.9.0
✓ Love it😍.Version: 3.12.1
✓ Please please BMW, Siri shortcutI absolutely love this app I really do. I’ve seen it go from rock bottom a few years ago to becoming one of the best vehicle apps to date. If there’s one thing missing to make it a perfect app for me is Siri Shortcuts. Listen I love that you can use Alexa for those that allow Alexa in their homes and on their phones but I personally like using HomeKit and Siri Shortcuts for my commands and would love to have the ability to precondition my vehicle using Siri. Not sure how to make this happen but hopefully one day I’ll get to see it. Update 1/26 Something is going on with the remote camera option… when you select it it begins and then crashes. Happens over and over even with the newest update. Please fix.Version: 3.12.2
✓ Great app-Just need to improve remote startI love using the app to check on my car and to remote start. However the remote start feature gives you a small black notification that it was successfully sent to car then goes away, which makes it difficult to tell if the car is running from the app if you miss that notification. Please make it more visible from the app the engine is running and for how long it has been running. Land Rover does this well with their remote app so BMW you should check that out for inspiration. Like I said other than that I love the app..Version: 1.7.2
✓ Being Informed 24/7Having the ability to check on my two prize possessions at any time of the day or night is very satisfying. Whether I’m away from home where the car are, or one of the cars is sitting in an airport parking deck, knowing the vehicle is in the same status as I left it is reassuring. I enjoy being able to check mileage on the cars or fuel level are nice features. Same goes with the ability to pull up the VIN. When my X5 standard warranty expired, I immediately subscribed to the service at my own expense through the BMW website. Suffice it to say, I’m a very satisfied customer..Version: 2.12.3
✓ Everyone should get an EV. I got the BMW i4My BMW i4 is a delight to drive. The momentum getting up to speed is fast, yet smooth. It is an affordable car for most everyone. This driver would encourage everyone to look more into the facts of EV vehicles, such as a BMW i4. As much as BMW has been making vehicles for many decades, getting into the EV market was swift and smooth for this German company. That means a buyer really purchases decades of BMW design and comfort, along with an electric vehicle. Foremost, is having a comfortable smile, while passing up gas stations! Finally, for general reference, I read that a gallon of gasoline weighs about 6.073 lbs. in the US; the amount of carbon in that gallon of gasoline weighs 5.5 lbs, or about 90.5% of the entire gallon. So, this comfortably smiling driver hopes that people compare their carbon footprint in relation toward considering getting an EV vehicle. Edward M. Melillo.Version: 3.7.0
✓ My BMW AppSo far, loving it !.Version: 3.9.2
✓ 2024 really worksAnd it caught up with my 2014 BMW the app really upped its game..Version: 3.12.2
✓ New Update*Started today, I can not use any of the remote options? Also, I’ve been trying to update my idrive for over 2 weeks and it is stuck on the final step and will not complete the update? I look forward to hearing from you. Thanks, Nic..Version: 3.12.3
✓ The less advertised superior carThe X5 M Competition 2024 is the demonstrable car that is under advertised! It is the elephant in the room when it comes to performance SUVs such as Cayenne turbo S 2024, Urus, DBS - it is sleek, muscular, beautiful, powerful, fast, elegant, with unmatched handling, and software packages! It’s simply the real deal?.Version: 3.9.1
✓ HornThe remote horn is no longer available?.Version: 1.3.3
✓ Finally got MyBMW app to work…UPDATE: Spoke to BMW Assist representative who escalated to the BMW IT Department who reset the SIM in the vehicle and that appears to have fixed my glitches - all app functionality seems to be restored, but it took a lot of time on the phone, in the car and waiting for IT to reset SIM. Good luck to you all 🤞 The new app is very disappointing 😤. The fuel ⛽️ reading has not changed in days - says the fuel is 99% when the car has 1/4 tank; the vehicle finder no longer seems to work - says the car is in my driveway when it is actually 10 miles away; loved the Connected app feature that showed the status of each element - windows; door; hood; & trunk - now just says “all locked” 👎 I did not have any of these issues with the previous Connected app. I signed out & in several times; uninstalled & reinstalled the app several times-issues still persist. New apps are supposed to be an improvement over previous app - that did not happen this time. Very dissatisfied 😤🤯.Version: 1.4.5
✓ Themes Now PlainI just updated this app and my theme and all the other themes turned into these plain color blobs! Terrible update. If you like your colorful and unique theme, don’t update! Update! My colorful themes are back. The unique beauty of the vehicle display is back and I can now focus on the functionality of the app. App still does not update once the ix50 is fully charged. I have to send a command to the vehicle to get confirmation a real time update is reflected in the app. e.g. hit the lock option, once lock confirmed, status date/time updates. Wish they would fix this issue. Otherwise, app sufficient..Version: 3.9.1
✓ Much better than the old Connected Drive AppThis app is much more user friendly than the old one. The interface is more pleasing and offers more options. It is easy to use. All the tools available work flawlessly for me (Canada). I used Google ‘’Send to my car’’ before to transfer a destination, but the app has replaced this easily. I like the integration with Alexa, but for me, it would be more useful to have Siri instead. I would like to see a better integration of the car options in the app. As an example, I have comfort access, but I cannot use the app as a proximity key to open/close the door. Maybe this is more due to the car than the app? Otherwise, just keep improving the app and we are good..Version: 3.9.0
✓ Pression de la pneus plus disponibleLa fonction des pneus ne semble plus disponible e depuis un certain temps.Version: 3.9.1
✓ It keeps asking me to login to my profileIts been more than a month since its been doing this, I have to ignore it and jump to carplay, searched on the web amd no fixes can be found....Version: 4.3.2
✓ Remote 3D missingHave uninstalled and reinstalled this App 2 times and the remote 3D is missing. Not sure what bug is causing this but really annoying. ***edit*** thank you Development team for the ridiculous response below…stating the obvious as though I’m ignorant and do not know how to use technology. THE APP DOES NOT HAVE THE REMOTE 3D feature accessible for my car. Just for your added information, I have gone through the BMW Genius, and Assist groups .. and now a problem ticket is out for the BMW engineers to figure out what is going wrong. My car hasn’t changed but something in the App update to either the old BMW connected and this “new” MyBMW app has and it is not allowing my car all of the features that I am supposed to have access to use. But thank you for letting me down in your response by not seriously considering that there may actually be a technological glitch somewhere else besides user error..Version: 1.3.3
✓ Update for EV owners pleaseThe apps functionality is pretty great overall, I’ve actually never had problems with checking the status of my car or giving it commands except for when service is spotty, but that is to be expected. I like that I can see how soon it will be done charging and the status of the battery. Being able to preheat the cabin is also an amazing feature! My only complaint is that when route planing, the BMW app recognizes lots of random, uncharted chargers, as well as EVgo. That’s not necessarily a problem, but it’s missing the largest and easiest charge network which is Electrify America. Depending on where you are, EVgo is ridiculously expensive and charges a fee just to start a charge. I find that stupid as you also have to pay to charge by the minute, which was outlawed in California for a reason. Almost half of all fast chargers I have seen are EA, and I’m a monthly member of their network. Because the app doesn’t recognize them, I never use the route planning. Mostly because after trying it once, it had me sit at a slow level 3 awkwardly at a dealership only for me to find out on the EA app, there was a much faster charger two blocks away. You could imagine the frustration. I think it’s time EA be added to the app, especially before the launch of the iX and i4. If you want to prove there’s places everywhere to charge, why not put them all on the map?.Version: 2.3.3
✓ Works OK but room for improvementFrom user’s perspective, this is mostly a UX redesign with a few features dropped along the way like seeing some car status info. The new UX is good as far as it goes. I found it to be pretty easy to use an uneventful. One nice thing is the ability to send destinations to the app from Apple Maps or Google Maps. I’m hoping this is just an early baseline to build new features on top of, but time will tell. For the maps, I’d like to be able to plan trips along a route rather than just give destination and schedule trips based on departure or arrival time. Apple Watch integration would be great as well..Version: 1.3.3
✓ What happened to the widgets?Is it just me or the bmw widgets have stopped working..Version: 3.9.3
✓ Love it, but a few suggestions!App is all together solid but with a few more features it could be perfect! Devs if you’re reading this is what I’d love to see in an update: 1) would love to be able to open or close windows remotely 2) more control over the climatization (allow me to set the temperature from my app instead of whatever the car was set to the last time I got out of it) 3) would love to see some sort of crowd sourcing info in the map (like speed trap notifications and where the cheapest gas is) 4) the payment section- please let me nickname my banks…twice now I’ve paid with the wrong account and accidentally overdraft we 5) nfc…sometimes I’m standing right next to the car and it still takes almost a full minute to send the unlock signal.Version: 1.6.0
✓ Too buggy, under utilizedThe functionality of the app is great, but the application does not always control the car. (You tell the car when to charge and it ignores the instructions from the app) I have delete and reinstall the app (for the last several weeks) on an almost weekly basis, that’s ridiculous. The app broke (failed to deliver instructions to the car which are acted upon) when the car didn’t charge overnight after I instructed the car to charge. In sum, it looks and is less filling. Finally, after the big OS update to the car, BMW didn’t send a change list to the owners. I have no idea what the new map colors mean or what changes were made to the car OS..Version: 2.12.3
✓ Controlling my carOne of the reason I love this App is keeps me informed aware with what’s going on with my car.Version: 3.9.3
✓ Quality and comfortAlways most religion car in the market.Version: 3.12.2
✓ No complaints, Still not perfectEverything mentioned in the title has a reason, the lack of features (mainly remote start) is a Car-by-car feature, some will have it some won’t. Second the reason why it can be slow at times, is because the signals sent to the car travel through cellular waves instead of Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, it’s perfect if you need to grab something out of your car, but if you’re in a hurry or need to drive, good luck. I imagine its faster on some cars than others, the M240i Convertible I’ve been using for the past 3 years has been reliable, but the app can be slow, and I wish you could remote put the top up/down. I was also expecting the app to be faster when I got the X3M, but to my surprise it wasn’t faster at all, I bet the speed will be fixed/upgraded in the future. No complaints, but still not perfect..Version: 1.7.0
✓ 6 stars for serviceThanks for Joshua Zhan at Durham Ajax helped me every time I need help with upgrading my car . I would recommend it . All there the best service..Version: 4.3.2
✓ Use other apps to find working ev charging stationsThis app needs to network with apps that show ratings that indicate whether ev charging stations are functional as it is a waste of time and money to be led by this app to a station that requires the user to download another app like Shell Recharge that requires adding money only to attempt use the station that has no indication of its lack of functionality. It took over an hour from downloading the Shell Recharge app, adding a payment source, calling the support number to be told it doesn’t work and advised, “ I’ll try to connect you to the charger” then told why don’t you use the charge hub app to find you a working ev charging station and finally charging my vehicle at a different company’s station. I ended up calling shell recharge to get a refund. I had to cancel an appointment as a result..Version: 2.3.3
✓ Great app for a great carDespite all the quirkiness of the BMW remote interface (it sometimes takes forever to send command to the vehicle), the app is very decent. As usual, BMW showed great attention to details – I love how the car on the picture looks *exactly* like my car, including the wheel set, shadowline trim, and even the color of the break calipers. All the necessary information is there – total mileage, fuel level, map integration. 3D view is weird, all other cars look at least twice as high as mine lol. Luckily you can see separate pictures from all the cameras – they make much more sense than 3D. What this app really needs is Shortcuts integration – I always send command to enable ventilation few minutes before leaving for work, it would be nice if I could automate it..Version: 1.5.2
✓ Démarrer à distancePourquoi ne puis-je plus partir ma voiture à partir de l’application?.Version: 3.9.3
✓ Only issue is getting serviceOnly issue is getting service.Version: 3.9.1
✓ Has come along way since it was releasedI have to give credit where credit is due. When this app was first released, it was a terrible replacement for the old Connected Drive app. However, in the last 12 months or so, the developers have dramatically improved the experience. They brought back almost all the features of the old app and have added many new ones. It seems to work flawlessly at this point for what it does, and that is better than the old app. Unfortunately, we are still missing one feature of the old app that I used daily. When I got in my car when the old app was still active, if I had an upcoming trip, the car would automatically pop that onto the screen and allow me to select it for navigation with a single click. With this app I have to go into my car, press the apps button, navigate to My BMW, and then select the next upcoming trip. It takes five steps of clicking and scrolling/selecting to do what used to be a single click. It would be great if the old functionality could be brought back..Version: 2.7.0
✓ YeayVery practical app to control the car. Will be greater when you get notifications of the car movement..Version: 3.12.1
✓ Great app 👍👍.Version: 3.9.1
✓ Helpful but need to be proactive with it.Great-ish app. I love that I can see my current state of charge and when my car will be at full (most needed part). I also love that I can climatize my car before I get in it and drive off. Only qualms are that the functions sometimes don’t work. Quite frankly I don’t understand why my vehicle has an issue climatizing from the app within the first press of the button. Some times you have to click twice or even three times which could total out to like 5 minutes. So if you don’t use the app 5 minutes ahead of your leave or so the climatize function is pretty useless. Other then that though it’s a pretty app snd everything else is fine.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Charging Schedule need improvementI recently took delivery of a 2021 X3e and use this app daily. We are in LA and have multitier utility rate. I tried to avoid charging during peak hours, which is 4pm-9pm daily. The app do not allow me to setup recurring charging schedule. I have to setup charging schedule daily. Also for unknown reason, the app need me to set departure schedule before I can setup charging schedule. It is a waste of time to do this everyday. I hope the developers will see this and change it so that we can setup recurring charging schedule and remove the need to set departure time..Version: 1.7.2
✓ Oil changeExcellent service by Ajax BMW.Version: 3.12.1
✓ Great - But Could Use a Widget!The new myBMW app is much better than the old ConnectedDrive app. The remote functions (lock, unlock, etc.) could be quicker, but they work reliably. I recently took delivery of my new 2021 X3 xDrive 30e and I love the ability to monitor charging status and range, however, I think a widget could be so helpful to check charging status and range at a glance. With the iX and i4 coming soon, I think this will be even more useful. Perhaps, the app could be redeveloped to prompt an update from the vehicle at preset intervals that the user would preselect. Additionally, I think a notification when the vehicle is fully charged would be great too! Otherwise, quite pleased with the development and looking forward to new features as they’re released..Version: 1.5.1
