CARPLAY ACTIVATION
BMW offers Apple CarPlay as an optional feature in many of its vehicles. If your BMW vehicle is equipped with the necessary hardware but CarPlay was not activated when you purchased the vehicle or you wish to activate it later, you can typically do so through a paid software activation process.
Ensure that your BMW model and year are compatible with Apple CarPlay. While many newer BMW models come with CarPlay support, older models may require additional hardware or software updates for compatibility.
Get in touch with us, we can provide information about the availability of Apple CarPlay activation for your specific vehicle and provide a quote for the service.
If CarPlay activation is available for your vehicle, schedule an appointment to have it activated. We will perform the activation and ensure that your vehicle’s software is up to date.
Once you bring your vehicle to the dealership or authorized service center, we will activate Apple CarPlay through software updates and configurations. This may involve connecting your iPhone to the vehicle, verifying compatibility, and activating the feature. Once activated, you can connect your compatible iPhone to your BMW via USB or wireless (if supported) and access CarPlay features on your BMW’s infotainment system.
By following these steps you can activate Apple CarPlay in your BMW and enjoy the benefits of seamless iPhone integration while driving.
