BMW CONNECTED APP. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS. 1) What is required in order to use the new BMW Connected app? Device Requirements: The new BMW Connected app is available exclusively for iOS devices running iOS 9.0 or newer. On iPad devices, the app will not run in full-screen, since this app is designed for iPhone® screens. Additionally, BMW Connected for Android only shared a very limited selection of apps, compared to the available apps on iPhone: only Spotify and iHeartRadio, along with a basic Calendar app. Since I enjoy other music apps, I called up BMW Support and asked if I could get access to the BMW Ready SDK so I could build my own apps. BMW adds Spotify to list of supported Connected apps. All you need to do is download the Spotify App from the Apple App Store, plug in your iPhone (minimum 4S, iOS7) to the MINI. It's just been updated and if you have the 6NR Apps option, it now supports Spotify and I've tried it, and it works very well. Simply load the Connected app on your phone, plug it in and then access BMW Apps via the ConnectedDrive menu option on iDrive. Full access to your Spotify playlists, etc. All controllable via iDrive.
In the latest release of Spotify, my car do not detect Spotify App within Connected Drive. I am now only beeing able to play songs over USB as 'External Device' in the menu and not whithin BMW Connected Drive. The Spotify App do not prompt me with the BMW.
