All up to date. The bmw assistant seems better. Not sure if I could before but it will find songs on Spotify for me. Nav seems better too.

Just started the update on my phone for my 1-series.
Is it easy to update the car from that then?

It easy easy just takes forever to send the update to your car. Then when it’s finished doing that you need to have 20mins spare where you can leave the car with the key in and not need to use it as it won’t start while it’s updating and you can’t lock it.

Yes you can.

You have to start the update, wait until it has started, then you can exit and lock. The alarm won’t arm and the iDrive will stay on.

Did a check today and it said mine was available. It said it was preparing the update but didn’t begin downloading or installing it on the twenty minute drive home this evening...

Seems there’s a fair bit in the download as it states in the release notes and various forums online. Will have a try this weekend. See if it finally updates.

Yeah I tried it remote to start and it was slow as hell. Downloaded to the app using home WiFi, was over a gb. Then next time got in car, told it to transfer then drove 20 mins to work and it was ready to install when I parked

Downloading to the phone was much better. Got in the next time and it was done in no time.

Finally got mine downloaded and installed last week. First time driving since and spotify is much LESS reliable than before. Patchy playing tracks and takes its time to change between artists. A bit of a backward step really from where it was before

I like the voice command to lower windows. Apart from that, nothing else I've noticed so far

Not sure if I’ve got this wrong as don’t recall seeing it before. Since the update the green “side lights on symbol” is showing up on the dash. I always have the lights set at auto and daytime running lights at default setting but can’t recall seeing the green symbol before?
