New software update with Alexa
Looks like it could drop anytime now in the UK:
https://www.bmwblog.com/2021/02/23/n...r-over-20-bmw/ I’ll probably need to plug mine into the battery charger to have any chance of getting it with the miles I’m doing at the moment! Edit: reading other articles, looks like Lane Change Assistant may be enabled without having to code it. |

Interesting thanks, the one everyone is waiting for!
Although one small point, I’ve had a customised profile pic set in my car via My BMW app for a good couple of months now, so odd they are crediting that feature to this software update. |

Yes, I thought that! I think once MyBMW launched, you could update the photo in that app as I changed mine to a picture of my car and it now shows as the drivers profile in the car.

The My BMW has been updated today and the Amazon Alexa option is now available but I assume that an updated iDrive version is also required.
I have 11/2020.36 but there is no ‘Third Party’ speech processing option available. |

So the my bmw app has updated and I’ve linked Amazon Alexa, but my current software in car is 11/2020.31 I assume it won’t work yet still ?

I don't think you can force an update but the Connected Drive will show available updates. Do you see anything in there?
