For those that have a HUD, and LOVE the GPS turn by turn showing up on the HUD, does this product convey the Google Maps navigation to the HUD, or will we have to continue using the iDrive GPS to benefit from the HUD?
@@bimmer-techdang, I’d probably buy one of these if it integrated with the hud right, but for the price it’s at it makes no sense to buy when it strips out a core feature :/
That will never be possible! U simply just "mirror" your iphone/android device (its not really mirror but more like a very simple mirror of the compatible apps) to your bmw screen. So your bmw doesnt really know that your google maps or whatever is running! You will need to use your bmw navigation if you like to see the information on your hud! Thats not a "mmi problem" My car has built in apple car play and i also miss the information on my hud.. it is what it is.. cant change it 😉
@@ulqin2008 not for the hud but i believe that their guage upgrade offers all the carplay etc right in the dash so it would be right there. additionally seems like a silly reason not to get something like this when the directions would just be a glance away on the idrive carplay system
As for the compatibility - check it yourself on our website. Just type in the VIN in the top bar and see the search results :) The functions are not usable with touchscreen :)
I got a 2023 mini countryman, it has wireless apple carplay but no android auto, will this provide wireless android auto? And will my touch screen work or just the idrive knob ? Also, if i reverse will the camera pop up like it normally would?
I’m curious too know if it effects the HUD? I have a x1 I don’t care for maps on the HUD. But I do like the digital speedometer on the HUD and ability to skip music. Does this take the HUD function off completely?
If an MMI Prime or Pro is available for your BMW (you can check with the last seven digits of your VIN on our website or call/chat with our Sales team), all of them come with a bunch of options in the audio submenu including an EQ! So you'll be all set. Don't forget to look into our Alpha One line of speakers and amps to REALLY take advantage of the EQ. ;)
I plan to install the pro in my M6 tomorrow. Will the night vision camera, side view cameras, and top view camera still work? Is it still possible to manually activate the cameras without going into reverse?
what is Android Auto MMI Prime Retrofit? I have an electric mini SE and all i want is to add android auto. Will this box disable Apple carplay or will both work?
Hi, I have 2012 f20 1.16i. I dont know which sytem does it have, but doesnt have navigaiton, bluetooth and usb port. It has only one aux input in armrest. how can ı get contact with you for better explanation and instatiliation.
I have a BMW X3 F25 04/14 LCI. I had factory NBT on it and upgraded yesterday to NBT EVO ID6. I really hate the screen mirroring for Android devices. Will I have wireless android auto with this one? plug and play?
Yes our MMI Prime and PRO allow you to have wireless Android Auto, although for mirroring it is through a wired connection and yes it is a plug and play product ;)
The price might look a little excessive, but for the quality of product, straightforward install instructions and after-sales support, we think it's fair :)

I've installed numerous units that can add carplay/AA to vehicles. BimmerTech's units are by far the most solid units that I carry. You people know the saying. You get what you pay for.

Sadly the MMI does not work with HUD :(
Is there a plan to add this via a software update in the future?

Would this fit in my BMW i8? Also is the screen touchscreen?

1. If you go for the MMI, you will have Android Auto
2. It will work with your iDrive knob
3. In-built devices should work normally
Cheers!
Is it possible to use it completely wired and turn off wifi and bluetooth on the MMI unit?
I have a 2017 bmw 330i with entrynav , I want CarPlay , which one is best for me ?
I would always suggest the Pro since it will give you the most features, but if you don't think you would need them, the Prime works too!
I’m curious too know if it effects the HUD? I have a x1 I don’t care for maps on the HUD. But I do like the digital speedometer on the HUD and ability to skip music. Does this take the HUD function off completely?
No, it corresponds with all on-board functionalities :)
can i install it to the idrive v4 business navi with 6,5'' screen?
Yep, should be compatible, but to be sure you can type in the VIN on our website
Will this add eq to an m240i?

Top view camera and side view camera will only work with iDrive mode, so if you switch from MMI :)
what is Android Auto MMI Prime Retrofit? I have an electric mini SE and all i want is to add android auto. Will this box disable Apple carplay or will both work?
The box consists of both Android Auto and CarPlay, so you can go ahead and order it, if only it's compatible with your Mini :)
how do you power a fireStick with the mmiPro, does the mmiPro have usb power out?
Yep, exactly!
I installed this prime on my f30 and now I can’t use BimmerCode. Is there any way I can code with the MMI prime carplay?
Wiat would like to code? We have our coding department, so we could help you out :)
@@bimmer-techWhy bimmercode cannot be used when using Prime/Pro?

You can send us your car's VIN so we can check it :)

Will this work on MGU to allow front camera install on say the 2020+ X3?
Yes, it's compatible with newer models as well!
Does it work for E92 with CIC system?
Yes, it works perfectly fine!
I would love to get this for my car , the issue is price . $700 , all the others are $350 , what’s so special with there model . It’s a rip off
The price might look a little excessive, but for the quality of product, straightforward install instructions and after-sales support, we think it's fair :)
Totally agree their price is ridiculous

@@JuanSanchez-vx1yfthey are all the same they all come from china loll
does the pro version have the same wireless hardware or is it improved (for example faster and better connection)?
We improved the hardware, so the system is faster overall. So yeah, you will feel the difference :)
Is the MAP from carplay work with HUD??
Sadly it doesn't work like that
Hi there, Does the CIC keep functionality as well? Cheers
Yes it does!
Will the Pro fit the 2017 i8?
If the Prime works, the Pro will work too! Cheers!
does both the prime/pro support spotify
Of course!
I have the mmi prime already in my bmw. I need just to changed with pro and pay extra if it's possible.
