It's unreliable and at times will not work - a known issue. Some say it improved as of software version 2019.11/70 - others say it is BMW server capacity related.
The Connected App is for the most part a gimmick - I already have forgotten it existed.

If you haven’t done so yet, create a Driver Profile and make sure you log into your connected drive account.
That seems to have solved my apps connectivity and accuracy. |

Dealer did set up everything for me on feb, 20th 2020 when I got my car. It works perfect, and it never failed. I think you have something wrong in your I drive settings. Ask them to set it for you. They should do it for free like when you pick up a new car because you paid for the app.

I called the toll free number and they walked me through it and it works
First you go to apps Then do options, update SW Then hold the round volume button until the screen goes black and release Delete the app on your phone Reboot your phone Install the app and log in Thats all it took for mine to work

Just a warning there may be periods when the app doesn’t work, or doesn’t update your car’s location. Based on experience that’s normal... just wait a couple days and it will work again. By the way, my remote start only started working with the latest update I had the dealer install. |

Does anybody know if remote start function , which is not available in Europe, can be uploaded into a European z4 by using an American Z4 I drive update.?

Uhh? Just downloaded firmware11/2019.70 with the app. If you want firmware updates as they come you need the app.
