Description

Get the most out of your rides by turning your smartphone into a motorbiking tool thanks to the BMW Motorrad Connected app.

As the app is connected to your motorcycle, you have the option to record all relevant information for your ride.

If your BMW motorcycle is equipped with a TFT display and connectivity functions, simply connect to your motorbike via Bluetooth for this
Your BMW motorbike does not have a TFT display, but it does have a multicontroller and is equipped for a navigation system? Then simply get the ConnectedRide Cradle and transform your smartphone into a motorcycle display.

Whether you select the "Winding" or "Fast" option, thanks to voice commands to your communication system and navigation instructions that are easy to see on the display, you can always keep an eye on your route. The intuitive operation with the multicontroller allows you to safely control everything without having to take your hands off the handlebars.

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.

Very promissing but not perfect.

I have been using the app since a month now and I did 4000+ km with it and I have to say it is very good and stable this far. I am kinda satisfied by the features of my motorcycle and the app support alltogether but I see some room for improvements:
1. I use cardo freecom4+ intercom and if I do not connect it to my bike directly, only to my phone, the app permanently loses the connection with the bike after having a phone call. Note, that just the app loses connection, the bike still says that the device remains connected although no nav. instructions are sent.
2. On the other hand, if I connect the intercom through the bike, all works well but then I lose most of useful voice commands on the intercom as they are not compatible. So I need to use the bike manual controls to make/answer a call, play/stop music and forget the Siri comands support.
3. Also the traffic information seem to not work at all (I live in Poland so maybe this is the reason…)
4. Some additional route information would be useful, like distances/time beteen the points of travel.

Theres much more details I could provide, but its inconvenient to do here, and the most problematic cases I briefly explained. Nontheless I recommend the app and hope for improvements!

The biggest mistake on my phone

This application is the biggest mistake. It never works well. Once it connects to my R1250GS, once it fails. You never know when the connection is working well. Sometimes you see speed limits, sometimes you don't. Sometimes tracking is logged, sometimes not. You never know that. Notifications - full screen. If you do not click on the notifications - the application stops working. You can't see your saved routes. So - always check what BMW wants to tell you before you leave. Who has time for this? I'm going to the garage and I want to drive - don't check and click the phone.

Developer Response ,

Hi, thank you for the feedback! It is very sad to hear that the app behaves like this on your phone. Some points we need to check. It would be great if you could send us an email to connectedride@bmw.com and we can take a closer look. Thanks in advance!
