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.

A great app, but with one major flaw

Have used the app on my GS1200A and now GS1250A since rhe app was first released and it has grown to become a great product. Though it has one major flaw: When importing a gpx file containing , where a point it can’t match to its map data it will not calculate a route at all (entirely!!). So if one single road is missing in the map data out of thousands it won’t make a route. This is not how the logic should work, and not how other navigator apps is handling it. What is should do is making a route to the point where it has an issue and then start again as soon as it has data of the route. In between it should make a dotted line and thus ensure it can make a route to our end destination. Approx 20% of my GPX files ends up with “No route found” on the app. I then need to use another app (RideWithGps or Rever) where it actually always work with my gpx files that do struggle on this BMW Connected app. The problem is now accelerating since the same problematic logic is used on the new Connected Navigator as well. Hope you could improve the logic in upcoming releases.

Great, but can always be better.

The app is great ! I have an F900XR with the SOS option. Guessing there is a SIM card for the SOS, why not connect the bike to that, so you can track the bike when your away from it? Put up geofencing so you can get an alert if it’s moved.

Developer Response ,

Hi and thank you for the review! We are happy to hear that you like the App in general. Thank you also for the feeback regarding the Simcard. Have a nice day.

Combined with my gsa

I am positive to this concept. It is the best alternative to a motorrad gps if you want the Bmw wheel on the handlebar to work .

Wishes:
- make it possible to change an imported route direction. Would helped me on my TET ride in Sweden this year when I was riding on leg the opposite way.

- it is a hassle to not be able to make a new route without removing it from the cradle.

- the app loose connections with the onboard display from time to time.

Thanks and keep improve 🏁
