BMW Apps with BMW Connected.

Well connected: now you no longer have to do without apps on your iPhone while on the road. Simply connect your iPhone to your BMW using the snap-in adapter or the original Apple connector cable and you can comfortably operate individual apps with the iDrive Controller.

“BMW Connected” is a free app developed by BMW that brings Facebook, Twitter or your favourite web radio station in a clear overview to the main vehicle display in the cockpit. In addition, with the Last Navigation function and the Vehicle Finder you can reach the destinations set in the navigation system of your BMW even when you are outside of your vehicle as well as find your way back to your vehicle at any time. Functions available through the BMW Connected app are updated on a regular basis, and, of course, you can use apps certified by BMW in the future via BMW ConnectedDrive in the vehicle. Get ready for the next generation of mobile communication and mobile entertainment: with your iPhone and BMW ConnectedDrive.

BMW Apps is compatible with iPhone GS3/4 and iPod Touch (with an active Wi-Fi connection) devices and requires the optional equipment “Apps”.

Emergency call function in the BMW 7 Series Sedan.

In the case of an accident, help is now on hand quicker than ever before. As soon as the crash sensors on the vehicle are activated, you are automatically connected to the BMW Call Centre. The position of your vehicle as well as the data collected by the crash sensors (e.g. airbag activation or passenger occupancy) is evaluated and passed on. This ensures that the rescue services are fully informed as to the type of accident and are prepared when they arrive on the scene. If you witness an accident without being involved yourself, you can of course activate the emergency call manually.

Important addresses and telephone numbers at the touch of a button. If you are looking for near-by restaurants, hotels or points of interest, you can allow the information to be transferred directly to your vehicle and integrated in the navigation system.

All of the transferred contact data is immediately saved in the address book, and if you require additional assistance, calls to the Information Service are free of charge for BMW ConnectedDrive customers.

BMW TeleServices in the BMW 7 Series Sedan.

Nobody knows better than your BMW if maintenance is required. With BMW TeleServices, your vehicle does all the work. Even before your next service appointment is due, your BMW sends an Automatic BMW Teleservice Call conveying up-to-date data on the vehicle's condition straight to your BMW Service Centre. And if you prefer to contact your Service Centre yourself, you can do so directly from your vehicle using the Manual BMW Teleservice Call. Your BMW Service Centre will then call you back to arrange a convenient appointment time.
In the unlikely event of a problem with your vehicle, BMW Teleservice Diagnosis and Help is on hand to fit it, without you having to go directly to the garage.

BMW TeleServices is currently only available in selected countries.
