- Learn in this video how to navigate with the BMW Motorrad Connected App and your BMW motorcycle.
Before you start your journey, click on the map tab to enter a destination in the BMW Motorrad Connected app. In the single search bar, enter a full address, including street and house number, or any type of partial address. Upon entering the first letters, likely destinations are suggested. You can also enter key words like names of points of interest. Select a destination you would like to go to, which you can add to your favourites by pressing the star symbol. Additionally, you can click on the blue ‘Calculating route’ symbol, for example to add waypoints by pressing ‘+’ and enter the address. Or zoom in the map, click and hold the location you wish to add and press ‘+’. You can also change the order of the waypoints. Under ‘OPTIONS’ you can set specific route options like a winding route without motorways. If you want to save this route, press the ‘Floppy disk’ symbol and name the route. Then press “GO” to start the navigation. Certain content of the smartphone, like the map, will be projected on the bike’s TFT Display when connected via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. Once the connection is established, and map mode is active, your smartphone changes to screensaver mode. Do not lock your phone by pressing the on / off button and keep the app in the foreground. If you would like to use the app again, slowly swipe up the screen. Map mode will be deactivated until you are finished and press the map mode button manually again.

Why not just make it Android Auto and Carplay compatible?
Yeah, would be much better to use Waze than this app
@@gmarrese91 “this” allows much more and serves a different purpose than waze
Cause it's ... not a car? Lol
@@agawdsparadise3782 They are behind the times. HD and honda have it.
@@yzfr1owner maybe they just want the money and products all coming from them and not have to start a partnership with Apple
If your phone is on map mode would that drain your battery? & if i turn off the screen will that disconnect?
I can't get the map from the connected app to appear on the TFT. It only appears on my iPhone while the white square indicating the app is connected appears on the TFT. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.
Crafting detailed routes on your phone sounds like hell. Great for A to B riding, but seems like you'll be hunting and pecking for hours if you want to get specific. Some things are just easier on a computer.
You can import GPX files
I just purchased a 2023 F 850 GS Adventure and I can't get the map to display, only the instructions display. How do I make the TFT show the map?
You need the navigation base and phone become the map.
Question. Is this BMW Motorrad App runninng off the phone's cellular signal or does it have direct GPS? The previous models had a Garmin 6 which had direct connection to satellites.
I purchased a 2022 BMW K1600B Grand America about a month ago. I have not been able to get the Navigation "Spoken Instructions" working while in map mode. The folks at my dealership don't have answer for me. Is there someone at BMW that I can communicate with to see if I am having a "setting" problem, or if I am having a warranty issue?
Can I view the map on the motorcycle screen and not turn by turn directions?
i USED MINE FOR THE 1ST TIME YESTERDAY, AFTER 10 MILES OR SO THE SAT NAV WAS STILL TELLING ME TO TURN LEFT AT THE END OF MY HOUSE STREET !! EVERY TIME i STOIPPED IT UPDATED TO MY LOCATION, BUT NOT WHEN i WAS RIDING, USELESS, DONT KNOW WHY, ANYONE GOT ANY IDEAS ? (WHOOPS SORRY FOR THE CAPS)
This is all well and good on a dry summers day or in a dealer showroom but what about when it's 3 degrees and raining or just raining, have you used a touch screen when it's wet. How are you meant to work this then? As I understand it, i can't just use a dedicated phone with a WiFi connection to keep the Nav alive whist my own personal phone is used for calls and media because BMW have designed this to need both the Bluetooth and WiFi connected to make the Nav work. The design of the phone storage for the K 16 and R18 have been designed in an office and not an outdoor motorbike environment. I want to find where I'm going whilst I'm in my house share it to my nav, put on my helmet and gloves. Then Go outside and, without a stupid amount of fiddling and the need to hook my personal phone to the bike whilst turning on Wi-Fi direct and other battery draining options drive off.
Please check out the My Bmw App for an example where you send your destination to the vehicle and it just works. You have a SIM card in the bike, please use it and store the maps in the TFT display so it all works in a turnkey way.
Impossible to have the full screen with the direction instructions indicated directly on the map.
I don't understand why they get so complicated, that it's hard for them to include Carplay
It's not hard, they just don't want to. CarPlay is free for them to install, AndroidAuto is free for them. Instead they will rather sell their own Navigation device (or try to charge users annual subscription to use CarPlay)
Can you mirror the phone adress on New bmw gs navigator?
Is it possible to open on Android alternative app during the navigation or BMW Connected with black screen should be always on screen?
Can this be used on the C400GT?
What happens when your navigation keeps disconnecting on a 2022 K1600 B grand America , using an iPhone 13, all day today would constant disconnect, but my music would still work. Same phone for music and navigation
Have you downloaded the maps instead of using cellular?
Honda Africa twin has android auto to make life much easier
Warum gibt es keine Videos auf deutsch ?
Weil die Deutsche Politik und die Industrie nur fürs Ausland arbeitet...Bananenstaat.
I don't see any traffic information on the maps. Are they available?
Is Map mode available on 2020 S 1000 XR ?
Hi, thanks for your question. Yes, the BMW Motorrad Connected App and its map mode are available with the S 1000 XR. You will find all information on our website: www.bmw-motorrad.co.uk/en/engineering/detail/navigation-communication/connectivity.html
Below, you will also find a PDF document showing all respective models compatible with BMW Motorrad Connected.
All the best,
your BMW Motorrad Team
I have a problem because I can't find a way to keep my mob from locking. I solved it on the last model s22ultra, but on s24ultra I can't do it at all
But how do you AirDrop Share the route as an OSM compatible GPX?
Hello Richard, the BMW Motorrad Connected app complies with GPX standard, therefore simply open the planned or ridden route you want to share as described here: support.bmw-motorrad.com/s/article/BMW-Motorrad-Connected-App-Navigation-Share-routes-93733. When selecting “export GPX” the AirDrop option will be promted on your iPhone. 🙂
@@bmwmotorrad Thank you!
Does anyone know how to reverse a route on a saved trip?
I get the navigation to work, but no audio comes through my Sena intercom?
Hello Graeme,
thanks for reaching us! Please contact your local dealer directly with your request. You will find him here: www.bmw-motorrad.com/dealer. 😉
THEN WHY not add bracket to the nav; bracket to hold my phone !
How much does this bike cost? It doesn’t have an onboard GPS?!?
Hello sedawk,
as prices vary from country to country we ask you to please contact your local dealer. You will find him by following this link: www.bmw-motorrad.com/dealer. He will be glad to help you with any questions you may have!
Best regards,
your BMW Motorrad Team
No kidding, @@bmwmotorrad - you did everything in your power to avoid the clou of the question: "why, in the bike THIS expensive GPS is not on board?" Don't pretend they asked you for the local model price, it looks very silly.
The worst idea - screen mirroring. In a world of Android Auto or car Play you force as to screen mirroring :/
Solid German engineering. They take ideas made popular 20 years ago and will make them work just well. Not perfect, just OK. I think we can expect Android Auto/CarPlay about year 2040 (or when the rest of the Japanese competitors will adapt it, then suddenly they'll catch up)
The app won't show your POIs if the route is imported, will it?
Wie verwende ich es mit Android?
CarPlay! CarPlay! CarPlay! Seriously… why not?
I get my new GS 1250 in August. Does the screen show the maps from the App?
Hi there! Yes, as long as the TFT and your phone are connected via Bluetooth or WIFI, the map will be projected on the bike's TFT display 😊 Enjoy riding with your GS 1250!
I got a GS1250 MY2021 and it shows only arrows on my TFT. What am I doing wrong?
Hi Maky, please contact your local dealer, because he can go to the bottom of the matter, whether it is perhaps due to a wrong setting. The local dealer can be found at www.bmw-motorrad.com/dealer. 😊
pls make it available in Korea.
Hi there, thanks for your interest! 😊 We do not give any information about future models or technologies. We'll keep you up to date on our social media channels!😉
Can we use GPX files ?
This system sucks. My 2015 Harley had voice commands and I could navigate by voice. Why do I have this feature on a nearly 10-year-old bike, but my brand-new Grand America doesn't have it? What crap. Love the bike hate this system....
When can I use TFT navigation in China? I think Carplay is a better solution.
✌️♥️✌️
Does the map mode show detailed instructions for turns on highways, like they are shown on navi 5/6?
Hello,
make sure to follow this link: support.bmw-motorrad.com/
There you will find some questions answered.😉
@@bmwmotorrad Scroll to the bottom of the page to click the English version of the link
yes it does,, even though MEDIOCRE...not like WAZE or anything else.
Auf was basieren die Karten? Google Maps?
TomTom
How may waypoints can be added on the app in a route?
Hi,
you can add 50 waypoints! 🙌
@@bmwmotorrad - Is there anyway to set a waypoint to a via or shaping point so that it doesn’t announce?
Hello Rambler358, currently it is not possible to set proximity points or shaping points, thank you for your sharing your wishes. 🙂
perchè la mappa non ruota in orizzontale quando ruoto il telefono anche se l'opzione è attiva nelle impostazioni? grazie
Hello Fabio Bruschi Polidori, here you can find some detailed instructions how to use the App horizontally: bit.ly/3naQvyb 😊
Dose it run in the same way also on the GS1250?
Hi Maky,
it runs the same way also on the R 1250 GS, yes.

Como aumentar o volume das instruções de GPS?
Quando estiver no modo GPS, use o botao ROTATORIO da BMWna manopola, e vera que aparece o VOLUME no painel.
What happens if you lose cell signal
Hi Bruce,
thanks for reaching us! 😊
This is not a problem, as the maps are downloaded in advance and are thus also available offline. So nothing stands in the way of your journey!
I had a test on sn R1250RT today
I used an old phone with no SIM and it worked fine
I just downloaded the relevant map via wifi before I went to the dealer
not a good map, I used once, did not find the place. and never use after that, use phone for google map is much easier and frienlier.
Gibt es das auch in deutscher Sprache?!
Hallo BH 60,
Du kannst bei dem Video die deutschen Untertitel aktivieren. 👍
@@bmwmotorrad Deutscher Hersteller der seinen Landsleuten rät die Deutschen Untertitel zu wählen.......sorry, disqualifitiert!!!
Wait- the app has to be in the foreground and I can't lock my phone? did I misunderstand something?
Yeah, that means I probably can't put the phone in my pocket. So you'd have to mount your phone which would make the app kinda pointless
I got the phone, now the question is how to get the new RT...
Therefore just contact your local dealer. He can surely help you out. 😉
👍
한국도 되게 해주세요~~~
I'm at my wits end with this nav system. I have a 1250RT and the nav just keeps dropping out, and then it shrinks the maps to 65% size so I can't see the route any longer. I've reported it to BMW 3 times using the 'Report A Problem' function on the app. They acknowledge a problem with the "Autozoom" but it hasn't yet been fixed via a new update. £000s on a new bike with no navigation - just unacceptable. Great bike but may well need to move awaya from it as I tour a lot and need a reliable nav. Distraught! BMW do not seem to care.
Solo da fallos, desconexiones, se bloquea, o se ve como miniaturas, no vale para nada
I never used this, just mount my android and open Google maps
The most worthless app I have ever tried to get to work. Never did on my R1250RS. I mounted a Garmin 665 on a Moto mount and now have immediate route inputs along with Satellite Radio. This app is garbage.
Yea… you need a bmw for it to work. LMAO
It's a shitty app full of bugs!
This will be interesting if it now works on the pre-2021 bikes. I’ve had a GS1200 (2018, with TFT option) GS1250(2018) and GSA1250 (2020) none have worked as advertised. If it’s fixed all praise but so far it’s been a long journey of poor connectivity and zero satisfaction
Sorry to say nothing has improved, I took delivery of a new RT last month, maps / TFT / connectivity a big disappointment.
BMW should be hugely embarrassed.
@@alanmcquaker9919 that’s a shame Alan. I hope they do get it right but I’ve been a long time waiting
Nick Hodge Hi Nick , just ploughing my way through website searches and what I'm finding is that BMW websites are saying that "connectivity is ensured using the BMW communications system " in other words buy the BMW communication system for your helmet to get the TFT maps to work and to get map guidance to your helmet etc .
Bit of a rip off it seems.
@@alanmcquaker9919 they’ve been saying that since the beginning with volume via whizzy wheel but they also said they were going to release that tech to major headset manufacturers (cardo, Sena, etc)
Nick Hodge ahh right I wasn't aware of that, thanks for the info.
Or you could just subscribe to CaliMoto like I do and select one of four types of roads from Interstate to twisty to travel to your selected destination! When finished I can rate and save my rides. It's past time for BMW and other vehicle manufacturers to realize they can't match dedicated mapping software?
While I share your sentiment on the dedicated mapping software (I can't imagine commuting into inner city of the large metropolia on the BMW navigation instead of Waze), CaliMoto doesn't work for everyone. When I tried to use it few times all it did was telling me, always a little too late, to take a narrow, single lane farm roads (in parts of the year either dirty or with dangerous vehicles oncoming) instead of the beautiful, twisty roads pretty much next to it.
Dear BMW - you are not a software company. Leave the software to Silicon Valley please. Now, when can I get a flash update to convert my new 22 Grand America to Apple CarPlay?
"Press the floopy disk symbol" on a video made in 2021? Seriously? I know that the R1250RT isn't exactly targeted at the younger audience, but this is still weird.
한국도 쓸수있게해줘라
BMW ist ein Deutsches Produkt und die Beschreibungen werden ständig nur in Englisch besprochen. Warum eigentlich.??
Hallo Rhöncamper, wir möchten damit natürlich alle BMW Motorrad Fans auf der ganzen Welt ansprechen und an den Inhalten teilhaben lassen. Wir hoffen, Du hast dafür Verständnis.
Beste Grüße, Dein BMW Motorrad Team
@@bmwmotorrad Achso. Ja ich verstehe. Wann kommt dann die Ausgabe in Deutscher Sprache. Oder sollen alle die, die der Englischen Sprache nicht so mächtig sind zum Wohle der ganzen Welt nochmals die Schulbank drücken.
Ehrlich. Ich glaube, Sie mich nicht verstanden.
Für Ihr Unternehmen dürfte es doch nicht zu schwer sein auch eine Deutsche Übersetzung anzubieten. Sie verkaufen ja auch an Deutsche Kunden. Oder ist das für Sie nicht relevant.
Hallo Rhöncamper,
für dieses Video ist ein deutschsprachiger Untertitel hinterlegt. Diesen kannst Du über den Untertitel Button im UA-cam Video auswählen. 🙂
@@bmwmotorrad Dafür habe ich absolut kein Verständnis.
I was reading these comments & yall are going on on @bmwmotard LMAO & how are they making vehicles that doesn't come in there native language that's just dumb
E
Unhappy with the system, just LEFT A HONDA with a fantastic CAR PLAY to this on my new 2022 K1600GTL and BOY...NOT GOOD at all.
Please improve your APP and let us use CAR PLAY & Android Auto instead...PLEASE URGENTLY.
No apple car play?? No android auto?? JUST Idiot display. In JAPAN & KOREA.
👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽 Goldwing display si thé King
Why can't it be used in Japan?
You are fooling Japanese users!
