    Another very helpful video. Thanks! I have had my car 3 days and been having clitchiness with Apple CarPlay and it seeing my garage door and presenting me a button to open the door and not being responsive. When I go direct to the underlying Home App, none of my Home devices are seen. They are stuck as 'unresponsive.'
    Parked outside my house, I attempted to turn off 'wifi' but it said it would disconnect CarPlay (which was fine but not really what I wanted). It threw me back onto CarPlay. I'm wondering if the DK+ (without physical key present) was causing some sort of loop where the car is dependent upon the connection and interfering with the Home App and thus me getting into the garage.
    Make sense? My Mini has (with no such DK) has never had this issue. Thoughts?
    Actually just came in from outside and home app is telling me my HomePods are on a different network and then listed the BMW network. Wondering if just walking by the car with comfort access is tripping as well.

    Hello.
    I use the digital key plus.
    Is there a way to adjuat rhe usage e.g. I would like my phone to only close the car when I go away, not opening when I'm approaching.
    It's nice but I often pass near my car during the day and it keeps opening :)
    Thanks.

    Another question:
    Returning in the car the music starts immediately where it stopped last time.
    Is there a way to prevent the music to start immediately?
    Thanks.

      Good Question.
      I remember the 20 models were still very new at the time, it may be that it had a different chipset at the time and may not be compatible with your phone, just the key card.
      Your best bet would be to call BMW and check to see if your vehicle has it built it, they'll have to run the vin number in order to confirm it's compatible.
      Keep in mind if its a 2020, their could be a good chance it was built in 2019, and the connected drive subscription may be expired, if it is, digital key will not work.

    Question. My BMW digital key plus works great on iPhone but I can't get the passive entry to work on my Pixel 8. I can't even find the setting to enable it. Do you know how to do that?

    How do I get my 2024 i4 to recognize me? I have tge digital key set up on my phone. When I walk to the car it unlocks by itself and locks when I walk away. But when I get in, it goes to guest. I have to select my name then scan the barcode and wait. Then tge car goes to my name and settings. How do I get it to just go to my name and settings when I get in???

      It’s been an issue going around. I’d say you’re the 4th one to mention it today. They should be resolving it soon.
      You could try repairing the digital key all together from scratch. So try going into the digital key settings and resetting it.

      I have that issue and cant seem to get the car to use comfort access with digital key. How do you get it to recognize the digital key and unlock automatically? I have an 2024 i4, manufactured after November 2022, but it will not automatically unlock. I've checked all the settings and reset it. Contacted genius and they didn't have an answer.

    Question: can I leave my key fob in my car while I take my phone with me outside of my car and lock it and walk away? I have done this before and it does lock with the fob in the car. Is this dangerous to do? Can they still get in the car and steel?

    • @BeamerView
      @BeamerView  3 місяці тому

      Yes you can leave the key inside and walk away with the phone to lock it in. It's not dangerous but I would try to keep the key inside hidden so know one can see it and give them a greater incentive to break in.

    When locking with the digital key is there a way to make the mirrors fold?

    • @BeamerView
      @BeamerView  3 місяці тому +1

      You should be able to go into settings, look for the DOORS/ACCESS setting and inside there, there is a setting called "Fold mirrors in when locking"

    • @JulioVillavicencio-ru2sn
      @JulioVillavicencio-ru2sn Місяць тому

      Mirrors fold when locking or walking away with regular key. When locking with the digital key the mirrors didn’t fold in.

    • @BeamerView
      @BeamerView  4 місяці тому

      Check to see if the key fob may be in a bag that is preventing that, or the key fob battery may be low. Also if you have digital key plus setup it may interfere with the key fob, so only one should be active.

    • @BeamerView

      You could ask your dealer to ask BMW if you're vehicle was suppose to come with one. Or you could call BMW Assist and they can check your vin number to see. I know if you purchase a certified pre owned BMW, you're usually guaranteed 2 keys, so it might be worth asking for the key card as well.
