So, I am having the same problem. ACP is spotty. This is one of the main reasons I got the car. I hope they get it sorted out quick

Reconnecting doesn't solve the issue by toggling bluetooth or wifi? I will deliver my car in a few weeks I'm getting nervous about all these bugs especially carplay which I plan to use daily.

The wireless CarPlay connection does not require the car WiFi / Hotspot connection. It will connect to CarPlay via BT.
Still the connection will drop ever so often. Poor execution from BMW. Add to that the charging matt that runs too hot under load...

Now.....the rear camera
G20 now failing with the rear view camera.
Camera failure display over dark screen and no image. After restart this morning, everyting back to normal. In summary: 1) Problems connecting car play 2 Waze not working properly ( map turning itself to right or left and restarting route ). Waze working normally when disconnected from ACP. 3) Voice recognition not recognizing some commands or not responding at all randomly ( only works when pushing the voice command butom ) 4) Rear Camera failure solved by the car itself after sleep mode for one night Good launch for the new G20, BMW !!!!! |

Wired car play in Golf R, perfect. Wireless car play in supposed high end BMW, irritatingly useless.

So my car play is fairly reliable right now once I deleted it from car and Bluetooth on the phone. When I then added it and had an issue I go into settings and search car play then click on BMW and turn car play off then back on and a few minutes later works. Been 2 weeks approximately with no issues

Same-mine is much improved. If it ever disconnects, I put my iPhone in airplane mode briefly, switch it back on, then retry connection in idrive. Happens 1/20 times I’m in the car now.

The most infuriating thing is that the reason this is happening on BMW and not other manufacturers, is less to do with wireless CarPlay and more to do with iDrive.
Because BMW charges you through Connected Drive for CarPlay (unlike other manufacturers), iDrive has to "phone home" each time the vehicle starts (and while using it) to ensure you are a paid subscriber to BMW for CarPlay. With the rampant iDrive/Connected Drive issues folks are having lately, this is why it's manifesting as CarPlay problems too. |

If BMW think that any of us will be shelling out money to subscribe to a service that is completely unreliable on the G20 and reliable and free on my S3 8V they are bonkers!
If iDrive had Spotify and an app for podcasts I'd just switch it off... |

After updating to iOS 12.4, I am now unable to view the artist and title of song via the virtual cockpit through CarPlay. So annoying. It now just says unknown title and artist when playing a song.

CarPlay: though connected Waze navigation voice will not play over car speakers but only phone speaker despite setting on phone specifying car as source. when pushing the volume button in the car... it will say "no source connected"... anybody else?

Had vehicle since Saturday, no connected drive issues but car play has failed to connect 3x. If it continues i will be calling BMW and asking for a fix and since i know there isn't one I'll ask for compensation. There is zero reason they should be charging for something that doesn't work efficiently.
