My truck has wireless charging and it’s almost just as useless (awkward to get phone in and out). No Wireless CarPlay. The number of times I’ve left my phone in the car, because it’s plugged in to charge or CarPlay, is frustrating. Having everything work without having to do anything is great. Which reminds me, is there a way to automatically put the top down as you approach the car, so that as you open the door handle everything is down?

Apple Maps is more up to date than my month old Z. My neighborhood isn’t in the BMW maps, but it is in the Apple Maps.

They do that, now. From my limited Waze usage, I'd say Waze is still better for that, though (for some reason, Waze annoys me. Don't know why).

Perhaps it is the voice which can be changed through the settings. You could have male or female, and also a UK instead of a US accent if you want.

As for heat - on my iPhone Waze + Pandora will quickly heat it up. Had 3 or 4 shutdowns in 3 years mostly in the summer.
Map useage. Use both WAZE & BMW at the same time. WAZE on the big screen for speed trap warnings & BMW for HUD directions. In most cases the map directions aline.

Key will be number of people using & reporting. WAZE has a very big base right now with excellent reporting & is my main detector.

When I run Waze and stream music simultaneously, the battery discharges much faster than normal. Logic suggests an actively discharging phone laying on a wireless charging pad would amplify the overheating issue. The other thing I'm curious of is if the magnet on the back of my iphone and case (magsafe) compound the problem. I'll experiment when the weather improves. A curious side note: The factory wireless charger located inside the center armrest of my F57 (with wireless CarPlay) that I drove for nearly 4 years overheated my iPhone only once during that entire period and it was on a hot summer day with the top down, sun shining directly on the interior. I don't understand how they could get it right in the MINI but not BMW models. |

This M3/4 thread might be of interest as the user base is bigger than ours.
View Poll Results: 64 to 32 don't use it. If you have the wireless charging option, do you: Use it on a regular basis and find it helpful 32 - 33.33% Use it rarely or never and think it's the worst 64 - 66.67% FWIW my vote is in the 66.67%. Based on my Z4 experience did not order it.

However; it works flawlessly on my 22 tesla model 3 So it’s not impossible to make this technology work seemlesly. One of the few things I enjoy on my model3 lol.

Agree, Works fine in the 23 FORD Expedition Max. Was part of a package & not stand alone or I most likely would have passed on it.
