Drive Recorder on 2022 LCI (Built in Dash Cam)
I didn't find any other posts on this (acutally being available) when searching, so I thought I'd share.
I was digging through the menus in my iDrive yesterday to figure out how to brighten the dash and buttons (it's still a rotary nob near the headlight knob.) and I noticed the option to add/buy Drive Recorder. There were options for 1 year, 2 years, 3 years and lifetime. I chose 3 year since that is the length of my lease. It showed a QR code (which didn't work) so I went into the Mt BMW app and then into the ConnectedDrive Store (under "My Profile") It didn't show up last night in the "Apps" menu, but this morning it was there. |

Mine had 6DR included in the VIN.
I do find it's nice to be able to trigger a recording when you hold the panoramic camera button for 5s and it'll record up to 20s before and 20s after the press. Do also keep in mind you're able to transfer the video with a USB stick as well. |

It would be nice if it would activate automatically. Also, activating upon a horn honk (like Telsa) would be nice. I programmed it to “preset 4” on my car, but it’s still a 2 step process having to hit record after I hit the 4. |

It's there to set up for a accident recording of up to 20 secounds before and after, it will record your speed though, so IF your over the limit best not use it. lol.

I was seriously considering this but it's not available on 2021 models. Then again the feature set is very limited and I believe video quality was very low, 720p?

This killed me. Didn't realize it didn't have parking mode. Have BlackVue Dash Cams in all of my vehicles now.
