You can check if Apple CarPlay is enabled and ready for use on your BMW in COMMUNICATIONS (MEDIA) -> MANAGE MOBILE DEVICES -> ADD NEW DEVICE -> CARPLAY. If CarPlay is not enabled take a look HERE.
Always make sure Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and Siri are activated on your iPhone. If one of them is off, CarPlay will not work.
You need to have Siri enabled on your iPhone
To enable Siri, please do the following steps:
- Go to Settings, Siri & Search
- Set Listen for “Hey Siri” to ON. This should stay always on.
Go to Settings, Siri & Search |
Set Listen for “Hey Siri” to ON |
After CarPlay is activated, remove iPhone from devices in your car and remove your car in Bluetooth connection on your iPhone - you have to add it again like in instruction above.
If you will have trouble with connecting to CarPlay - after clicking USE CARPLAY on your iPhone, go to Wi-Fi settings on your iPhone and connect to CarPlay network.
