Anyone using Carkey on their 2021 vehicles?
Hi gents and ladies!
Just about to pick up my X5M this Thursday and one feature I am really looking forward to is the Apple Carkey feature. Is anyone currently using it? Does it work well? Can't seem to find any videos of anyone actually using it anywhere or threads on reddit. Here's what it's all about, apparently most BMW's built after July 1st 2020 have it built in. https://support.apple.com/en-ca/HT211234 Thanks in advance and excited to join the X5M crew! |

So wrench in the operation, I got a late July build 2020 X5M competition... I don't think it's going to be compatible. I've got the March software update and nothing in the Connected Drive app.
Going to take it into the dealer for a manual update to the July software but apparently I'm reading that X models are only compatible if built after 08/2020 not 07/2020 like the rest of the BMW lineup? |

Dropped it off for it's break in service - they're also going to update the software to the July build. Will let you know if a miracle occurs and I can use Carkey
