Bluetooth Functionality
Will the new x3 with its bluetooth connectivity allow me to display my google maps directions {from an iphoneor similar} on the idrive screen?
Or is it only the phone calling features that connect? |

new feature is support for Bluetooth Message Access Profile (MAP). This allows messages (SMS/Email) to be read/written from the phone. This will allow the car to speck an email or SMS to you. As far as I know, there are one (maybe two) Blackberry phones that support Bluetooth MAP. No iPhone or Android devices (yet) I do not think you will be able to 'display' your iphone screen onto the idrive screen. But you can send a location to the car from Google Maps. There is also an iPhone application to do this, but it is not available in the US. If you Google "my bmw remote iphone usa" you will find details from others who have found a way to get it in the USA. |
