Note that email delivery to iDrive is spotty right now, though I kept emails off since I don't want to ruin my car by turning it into yet another place I'm plagued with email anyway.
4. Go to www.bmw.com/update and download any iDrive Bluetooth update that may be available there to install in your car.
Only NEW texts and/or emails that you receive while the phone's display is off will show up on iDrive, under ConnectedDrive > Messages. And they'll be auto-deleted from iDrive (but not the phone) when you turn the car off. There's no manual way to delete them from the display or the phone using the car. |
what about voice to text? so you wont have to be so dangeruos while driving?
