BMW connected drive app sucks
So I've had my g20 m340ix for 2 months now and up until 3 days ago, the cars location is stuck in the matrix .. remote start will not work because the car is to far away supposedly. The app just seems to be stuck. There's no remote software upgrades available, I've logged in an out of the app 5-10 times uninstalled the app re installed the app same results. I've contacted connected drive not much luck there. Any suggestions on how to reset the glitch in the matrix ?

OTA software updates are not working for all. Latest software is 11/2019.xx
If you are not on this software version then ask your dealer to update. It solved an issue I had with the 3D remote view on the app.

Hold in the radio power button for 30 seconds, it will re-boot the system. Shouldn't loose any settings it's just like turning your computer on & off

Same issue, went through all the debugging steps. Connected drive support recommended taking to dealer to diagnose hardware issue.. but I'm guessing they'll update software and it'll magically work. I wonder if there's something else to reset... A fuse to pull or something.

BMW ConnectedDrive, what a disappointment !!
BMW ConnectedDrive, what a disappointment !!
We've just upgraded to a BMW X3 xDrive35d (2017) and I was really looking forward to be a part of the new exciting world of "connected" cars but what a disappointment! I really love the car itself but what a terrible bad solution ConnectedDrive is. Worst piece of cr*p I have ever seen and I've seen a lot sh*tty solutions since I work in the SW industry. I'm extremely disappointed with BMW regarding their software. A friend of mine that bought a new X5 last year is having the same problem ie the whole solutions seems flawed!! I really have a hard time understanding BMW can deliver such a poor solution! In general:
BMW is not really known for their stellar software development but even by their standards, this is a new low! Last edited by Boilerplate4U; 02-19-2020 at 01:54 PM.. |
