Description

Get the most out of your rides by turning your smartphone into a motorbiking tool thanks to the BMW Motorrad Connected app.

Plan your dream route or import routes as GPX files with our app.

As the app is connected to your motorcycle, you have the option to record all relevant information for your ride.

If your BMW motorcycle is equipped with a TFT display and connectivity functions, simply connect to your motorbike via Bluetooth for this
Your BMW motorbike does not have a TFT display, but it does have a multicontroller and is equipped for a navigation system? Then simply get the ConnectedRide Cradle and transform your smartphone into a motorcycle display.

Whether you select the "Winding" or "Fast" option, thanks to voice commands to your communication system and navigation instructions that are easy to see on the display, you can always keep an eye on your route. The intuitive operation with the multicontroller allows you to safely control everything without having to take your hands off the handlebars.

Notes for use.
• This app is part of BMW Motorrad Connectivity and can only be used when connected to a vehicle with a TFT display or the ConnectedRide Cradle. The connection is established wirelessly between a smartphone, the vehicle/Cradle and – if available – a communication system via Bluetooth; the app is operated using the multicontroller on the handlebars. We recommend using the BMW Motorrad communication system for listening to music, making telephone calls and receiving navigation instructions.
• A mobile Internet connection is required to access traffic information. This may incur costs in line with the contract between the customer and their mobile provider (e.g. for roaming).
• Please note that the functionality of your smartphone and the connection to the vehicle also depend on national requirements and factors; BMW Motorrad therefore cannot guarantee that it will be available at all times.
• The BMW Motorrad Connected app will be displayed in the language you have set for your smartphone. Please note that not all languages are supported.
• Continued use of GPS tracking in the background may reduce the battery life of your smartphone.

Not impressed

melooking4you on

The app frequently fails to connect, and this only resolves if you completely close it and restart. The speed limit display freezes or doesn’t display at all. The fuel information is inaccurate mine currently shows 21% and 264 miles range. For such a large company you’d like to think proper attention to detail would ensure it was faultless.

Unreliable

ports_77 on

The app is unreliable, doesn’t always connect, doesn’t always record and worse when you think it’s working it doesn’t track the route.

Poor navigation app

Gumbopickles on

Just got back from a trip to South Wales and this is the first time I’ve used the app as my main navigation as I usually use Apple Maps. The first route I used it for was great but then the issues started. It gets stuck on the GS screen with a turn instruction and it starts to play mismatched instructions through the headset so gets very confusing. Then I thought I’d try the twisty route option and it was awful, laggy and kept re-routing. Then it started to just crash and disappear altogether from the screen. This is actually pretty dangerous when riding a bike as it’s a distraction you don’t need, especially when you’re trying to work out where you’re going. In the end I gave up and went back to using Apple Maps, which is pretty faultless and doesn’t ever crash. I wish BMW and other bike manufacturers would stop trying to recreate something we don’t need when all they have to do is integrate Apple Car Play into the TFT.

Constantly disconnects

celestrium on

I’ve found the latest version just doesn’t work correctly anymore. It’s supposed to map my rides but just constantly disconnects. I’ve got a BMW M1000R and it never works with it. Less than useless!

App Flaws

Botast07 on

The app was working very well up until the last updates. Now the current bike fuel level either shows 32% or three dots as if it’s not getting a proper reading. It also seems to crash during tours if the engine of the bike is switched off, during a coffee break for example, and doesn’t record the remainder of journey properly.

Speed limit box

slatered on

Love the app , I just can’t get the national speed limit up . I have the white box but no numbers , just updated the app hopefully that has fixed it

Headset

Rich&Laura on

I love the app but it has a big issue with it. When connecting up to the bike or connected ride navigator I always struggle to get all of it working correctly. If I have voice controls for sat nav I don’t get usability for my phone ie phone calls or music. Try to play through the navigator you can see the music but won’t play anything. Such a shame it can’t all sink together properly

Connected?

feduptryingnicknames on

I have just purchased an R1250GSA plus new Connected Sat Nav and helmet Comms, but can I get them all to pair with one another and with the bike? Nope. And most frustrating of all, the dealer (approved BMW), doesn’t seem to know how to do it either. Not impressed.

Ok, but another bug x fuel percentage

Hillhound on

I like this app WHEN ITS WORKING. Latest issue is an unreliable fuel reading. It’s not that important, it’s not a deal breaker, but if you are going to offer it, make sure it works accurately! The info is there in the bike so it is only a transfer of information, so how does a fuel gauge showing 100% on a fully fuelled bike become 85% when transferred to the app? Frustrating (as I fear that as they fix this another issue will pop up, the last one being the mph/kph issue)

Can’t even connect it on latest version

WelshDan on

Had it working fine 3 weeks ago, connected to a bike straight away. Have tried to get it connected today to a new bike - nothing. Have deleted and reinstalled, deleted and readded all connections on bike, reset phone, not a sausage. Ultimately pointless at this stage, as I can’t even connect the navigation part of it!
