CONTROLS
BMW ID/driver profiles
Principle
In ConnectedDrive countries, the BMW ID is the
personal login for all relevant offers for the BMW
brand. The BMW ID can be used in the vehicle to
store personal vehicle settings.
In non-ConnectedDrive countries, the personal
vehicle settings can be stored in driver profiles.
When a person logs in with their BMW ID or the
driver profile in the vehicle, the stored settings
are activated.
General
The BMW ID can be created in the vehicle, via
the BMW app, in the ConnectedDrive portal and
at the Service Partner. A driver profile is created
in the vehicle.
If a vehicle is used by multiple persons, each per‐
son can activate their own personal settings via
the BMW ID or via the driver profile.
Many of the settings that are stored for a BMW
ID in the vehicle can be synchronised with the
BMW Cloud. This makes these settings available
in any vehicle where the same BMW ID is used
to log in.
The vehicle can store seven BMW IDs or seven
driver profiles.
If a login using the BMW ID does not occur and
no driver profile is activated, the vehicle is in the
guest profile.
The login with the BMW ID or the activation of
the driver profile can already occur during un‐
locking. For this purpose, the driver recognition
via a vehicle key or a digital key must be as‐
signed to the BMW ID or the driver profile.
Operating requirements
When a BMW ID or driver profile is created,
changed, deleted or edited, the vehicle must
move at a maximum of walking speed.

The login in the vehicle with a BMW ID and syn‐
chronisation with the BMW Cloud are only possi‐
ble when the vehicle has cellular network recep‐
tion.
Welcome window
After unlocking the vehicle, a Welcome window
is shown on the control display. The type of the
welcome depends on the following prerequisite:
▷
The vehicle does not have a stored BMW ID
or driver profile:
The welcome is neutral. An option to add a
BMW ID or create a driver profile is offered.
▷
The vehicle key or the digital key has not
been assigned to a BMW ID or a driver pro‐
file:
The welcome is neutral. The stored BMW IDs
or the stored driver profiles are offered for se‐
lection. Additionally, it is possible to add a
new BMW ID or create a new driver profile.
▷
The vehicle key or the digital key could be as‐
signed to a BMW ID or a driver profile:
The welcome is personalised, the stored set‐
tings are activated. The BMW ID or the driver
profile can be changed.
As soon as the drive-ready state is turned on or
the control display is tapped outside of the wel‐
come window, the welcome will be hidden.
