Connected App shows nothing under "Info"

jtpryan · 11-22-2018, 08:21 AM

Android app. Pixel 2 XL. 2015 328i.

When I select "Info" I get nothing under "Average speed", "Average consumption", or "Mileage"

Does something need to be enabled on the car? Location does work as do the other functions availabele (Horn, lights, lock, ventilation).

Only milieage might work... I have a 2016. As far as I know, these features are mainly for the Gxx cars

Why use an app when you get that information on the dash by pressing the button on the left steering column stalk?

Sorry if this is obvious, but you only get that data if you plug your Android into the USB port on the armrest. Won't come over wireless data...

That's interesting, let's see if any others have another experience. For me (on an F36) I have to connect via USB for the " INFO" to update.

Really? Only via the USB port. Wow. I gotta say, awesome car to drive. But the "connected" part, the Nav, the Entertainment, very poor. One gets better stuff in a Toyota at half the price.

Thanks for the replies.

I think only the evo can use apps thru Bluetooth n the nbt needs to b plugged into usb.
