General
You can find information about installing the
Connected App and on its content, as well as in‐
formation about the ConnectedDrive customer
portal, at www.bmw-connecteddrive.com.
The Connected app must be installed on the
smartphone you wish to use. The installation
process will vary depending on the smartphone.
To use all the features of the Connected app,
you will need to register when you start it up; you
only need to do this once. The registration proc‐
ess creates a personal ConnectedDrive account
for you in the ConnectedDrive customer portal. If
you already have a ConnectedDrive account, you
can use its login details in the Connected app.
The vehicle identification number must be en‐
tered in order to unambiguously match the app
to the vehicle.
Some functions enable communication with the
vehicle without the need for you to be inside or
at the vehicle. These functions can be executed
via the Connected app or the Connected‐
Drive account.
The vehicle needs to be linked to the Connec‐
tedDrive account in order to use the functions;
you only need to do this once. You can link via
the ConnectedDrive account in the Connected‐
Drive customer portal or via the app. Confirma‐
tion in the vehicle via iDrive is also required.
