Description
With BMW Connected, BMW drivers can safely and easily access general and vehicle-related functions during, before and after making a journey with their BMW. This requires a BMW vehicle with a production date of July 2013 or later, equipped with the special feature 'Apps' or 'ConnectedDrive Services' (varies according to model and market). The following models, which were also produced after July 2013, are excluded: 1 Series Convertible, 1 Series Coupé, 3 Series Convertible (model from 2010), X1 (model from 2009), X5 (Model from 2006), X6 (model from 2008) and Z4 (model from 2009).For compatible smartphones, see www.bmw.com/bluetooth.
To use a BMW Connected app in your BMW, connect the smartphone to the car using either the snap-in adapter or the USB connection in the centre console, and follow the instructions from the connection assistant, which you will find in the Connected Drive menu.
Current functionality:
Facebook & Twitter
Displays the latest status messages, personal favourites, and community trends in your car. Moreover, pre-defined texts which are able to access current vehicle information can be sent during the journey.

Last mile navigation
Transfers your navigation destination and the position data of your car to your smartphone and continues your navigation even after you have left the vehicle. Makes it easy to find your car when returning to it at your destination.
The application is displayed in the car in the language configured for the vehicle.
An Internet connection is required. This can incur costs (for example due to roaming) in accordance with the contract concluded between the customer and the network operator. Please observe national requirements and conditions specific to the country you are in.
Restricted functionality is possible in the event of insufficient data transfer speed and with volume-based bandwidth restrictions of the network operator. Moreover, it is possible that selected functions based on services supplied by third-party providers will not be available at all times or may be subject to change. The specific conditions of these providers must be observed.
For the aforementioned reasons, BMW is unable to warranty unrestricted compatibility and functionality of your mobile device in combination with the vehicle interface.

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew
1 ★Why is BMW kicking Android to the curb? They advertise that they have all these connected apps but the reality is they just support Apple products.
1 ★Eventhough the app is available for android it does not work. Can't believe my 2012 honda civic has way better media intergeation than a 45k 328i with the optional BMW apps. Ridiculous! !
1 ★Looks like its a known issue amongst Android users, this app simply can't connect to the car. Not even in the most current iDrive systems.
1 ★Will Not Work on Android. I've tried 3 Different Androids (Note5, S6 & S6 Edge+) None of them will connect.
1 ★What a joke, hope the rest of my new 740Lxi doesn't preform as bad. Totally useless.
1 ★It will not connect to the vehicle - I've tried everything, but it won't connect (and it should according to BMW). Can't give much more of a review since it doesn't work....
3 ★It's clunky and could be so much better. I cannot get Pandora to load on my BMW X3. It may be a combination of bad app design coupled with the need for a vehicle firmware update to make the two play nice in the sandbox but for now, am holding out for some fixes from BMW.
1 ★Won't connect. New phone, new BMW. They can't communicate. Well, not why we buy Beemers I suppose..want creature comforts, buy a Benz
1 ★Switched from an iPhone to android. While iOS version of the app worked somewhat, this android version is a rubbish. Tried many times and many ways and it wouldn't even connect. Now my Connected Drive option of the vehicle is completely useless.
1 ★I've tried this on three phones with no luck. App is useless and want detect the phone. I've used an HTC One M9, HTC 10, and iPhone 6.
1 ★What a lack of effort to sport Android owners.
1 ★The app does not work with 2015 BMW 228 and Nexus 5X phone. The bmw service said that the phone is not supported and did nothing.
