EXHAUST FLAP REMOTE CONTROL*

BimmerLink for BMW and MINI Reviews
Life Saver
Just traded in our BMW, so after 3 years of using this app, thought I should write a review. Our little i3 REX made for a great shuttle for the kids, but the range extender engine had a timing issue that would have cost more than the car was worth to repair. As a result, the REX often wouldn't start when needed. If you could get it to start, it worked great and did its job, but with the intermittent issue, often this meant pulling over, doing a full key cycle and trying again — multiple times. Although it’s probably not advisable, BimmerLink allowed us to clear th code while on the move, each time giving the REX a “clean start”.
The small amount we paid for this app, and with huge thanks for the Family Sharing feature, as my kids learned to drive, we felt comfortable knowing they could “jump start” the range extender if they got into trouble.
We won’t buy another BMW again, probably for a long time, but we would buy an app from this developer. For three years it was a solid — and useful — app to have on our phones, staying that way through many updates. Along with its companion BimmerCode, I wouldn’t own a BMW without them!
CarPlay add-on is nearly worthless.
App itself is great and easy to use. The $10 CarPlay add-on, however, is next to worthless. It will list sensor values on the CarPlay screen, but you can’t view the gauge dashboard until updates are allowed by Apple apparently. I’d assume most people who want CarPlay functionality want the gauges displayed like they are in the app.
Electronic Parking Brake Service Mode is not working
It is decent app for modern BMW but it does everything it states except EPB service mode. Failure message pops up “The Service Mode can’t be activated” diagnostic mode activated, foot on brake, parking brake disengaged. All conditions have met. There are no manual, instructions and troubleshoot. I emailed support but they gave all informations I already know. I pad almost $43 including tax. I’m not sure if it is worth it. Maybe it is better to invest money on good obd2 scanners.
Great app
Love the app just wish it had a lil bit more options
This will be perfect with a couple of things
very good apps. Just if you can add a couple of things as 1. dashboard view in carplay 2.transfer case calibration. This app will replace most of other bmw OBD scanner.
CarPlay feature does not work
Save the $10 and don’t get the CarPlay feature. Just paid for it on a 2020 X5 and it does not work. The message on the Idrive screen keeps telling me to open the iPhone app and select sensors for the dashboard even though I already have. Oh and you can’t get your money back so that’s nice for the app developer I guess?
Great App! Carplay needs lots of improvement
Love this app for what it costs. Has a lot of great features. The carplay feature however should be free. It only shows sensor values. You cannot interact with any of the vehicles settings, which would really what make the 10$ worth it. Please enable exhaust flap control in carplay!!! It would be sick to use the touchscreen to toggle it open and closed.
Docking 2 stars for the carplay feature as it too limited for what it costs.
Won’t connect
Even with every known workaround attempted,still refuses to connect. I even purchased the enet cable promoted by these guys.
Gauges
I love em!!
Unacceptable $9.99 option
The main app is generally ok probably I’d give it like 3-4 stars, although limited and sometimes it cannot clear some errors or infos. But, I want to complain about this $9.99 carplay option: I cannot believe they have released such a crappy $9.99 option. This would not be acceptable even for free. It’s basically just a small list which takes forever to connect initially, then does not update properly but rather like every 10-20 seconds. When you switch from the app to say home screen or music or something else it disconnects and you have to go through the whole process again... all this while you’re driving... not to mention the information on the list is so small you can barely notice the parameters while driving... and it costs $9.99… in 2024… I’m genuinely impressed how they have failed us so bad and I wonder who was the persom that finally gave it the green light to deploy this thing :|
