X5M My BMW Remote App??

campbelly · 05-25-2011, 09:37 PM

so i got the My BMW Remote app to work on my iphone, and i see our F10 on there no problem, but do not see our brand new X5M...its under the same bmw assist account so i figured it should be there..i thought that e70's had that feature built in like the F10's but im hoping maybe someone knows why i cant see the x5?

thanks

What is BMW remote app? I can only find BMW connected.

My x5 is on the app (assuming you mean the iPhone one - and I'm in the UK) so it does have the potential to work albeit with fewer features than the 5 (just door lock/unlock, location and sending it locations). Maybe it's something to do with 2 cars on one account

Yeah, not much options and its really slow to locate/lock/unlock over here (NY).

Interesting because my X5 shows up yet my sister's X3 (F25) doesn't.

When I traded in my old car a few weeks ago and called to set things up with assist on the new one, I asked them to take the old car off the acct (an e70).

I was surprised when I first tried BMW remote just a few days after I got the new car, both cars were showing up on the app. I just checked now and the old one is STILL there. Too bad it's an e70 and I can't go around honking the horn every once in a while.

So I guess my point is, more than one car should work even if you don't own them all!

I downloaded the app two weeks ago and my 2011.75 M3 and 2011 X5 show up and work just fine....maybe try reinstalling the app? Dunno

...

BTW I agree with cybervinn that it is pretty slow and outside of being able to say I have it the only time I use it is when I'm not positive I locked the car.

I went to search engine on my I phone 4 and do not see such an app when I type BMW. What is the exact name of the app?
