BimmerLink for BMW and MINI

Android Auto add in is glitchy and doesn't allow you to scroll through sensors. It seems to refresh the data every second which stops you from scrolling down. Basically if you have more than 4 items on your dashboard, you won't get to see them. Pretty lame considering your paying an extra $10 for the add in on top of the cost of the app. Although Bimmerlink gives you access to a ton of different "sensors" most of them don't display any data depending on your vehicle. Car Scanner is a better app

The clearing codes thing is kind of cool, but I got this app mostly for data logging. The data logging on this app seems kind of useless because it only logs at certain intervals, and those intervals are too far apart to be of any use. It can completely miss pulls that are 0-70mph+. If there was a way to set the interval of how often it captures data instead of once every like 10-15 seconds, that would be awesome. Not sure if that's an app limitation or OBD2 limitation.

Bought this and BimmerCode full versions to register a battery which worked well enough. Weird that it takes both apps to get this done (select new size in one, register in the other.) I'd give 4 stars for that but beyond that it's unhelpful. I purchased a different app (Protool) available on play store so that I can see more realtime data and perform default coding on new modules. I suspect I won't use these two BimmerLink/BimmerCode apps anymore since that one is much more robust.

It's good, especially for a car like mine that has no temp gauge etc. The problem is the lack of info about various sensors and what they actually do. It also doesn't show boost pressure for my r56 s, despite all the ads etc showing this. If I put more than 8 dials up it can't read sensor info. Aside from that it's good.

App actually works great. Giving it one star because of how insistently it tries to get you to rate the app. There is no "I don't want to rate the app" option, it'll just constantly hound you to rate it until you finally do. It's supremely annoying.

Hello, ​It would be great to also have a way to view the oil level measurement in the service menu. For example, my on-board computer shows an almost full green bar for the oil level, but ISTA indicated that the on-board measurement is not very accurate and that I should add 1 liter of oil. ​If it's possible, please add that function to the app so a precise oil level can be found without carrying a laptop. Everything else is great, thank you.

Bought to register a new battery but it doesn't work. I did clear some codes but they just come back. I was expecting more with all the positive reviews but beside that I don't understand the lingo it doesn't do much for me!

My E90 came without heat gauge, oil temp, electric water pump gauge and other stuff I want to keep track of. This app allows me to have peace of mind and with BimmerCode allows me to do a bit of custom coding. Fun stuff.

no documentation -- none. ....and finding anything online is a challenge. sensor names are inconsistent and confusing. exporting data is not intuitive. I did it once, then the option disappeared. it doesn't erase or reset any of the long-term errors stored for my car

BimmerLink works quite well for me. It always connects on the second to fourth try, and it rarely loses connection. This is not necessrily a property of the app. I use OBD Link CX for this and BimmerCode. Also.. This is the single best tool I have for my car. It has enabled me to diagnose serious issues, that would otherwise have been hidden.

Great! Using MHD Universal wifi adapter, seamless and reliable communication. App is user friendly, really easy to use even for total amateurs and has everything you need to diagnose and maintain on your bmw. It would be great to check for grqphics of measuring ranges on some sensor readins because some readings on dashboard look flashy (changing values from 0 to max several times a second and in reality it's abysmally small unimportant change (ie 1-5mbar reading on 1+bar range)

This is a great product. I've been using it a lot. There is an error with the sensor units for gearbox temperature. It incorrectly shows the temperature unit in Celsius (C). It needs to be in Fahrenheit (F); the main transmission oil temperature is correctly showing in Fahrenheit (F) Please fix this unit error.

Every car maker should have this kind of app, unfortunately it gives a lot of value that you can plot without having them in the specific vehicle, it should check what model what values can plot. It doesn't show any information about HV battery not even a temperature.

waste of money, came up with a whole heap of false codes. I'd just had a main dealer look at it and we compared data. Don't bother with it. All it can do that's interesting is open the exhaust flap in non sport mode. Resetting to closed after you switch it off. Asked for a refund didn't get it because apparently I used it to reset codes. I literally tried to read them only, it also reset my service data which I also didn't want. overall a total waste of time.

Easy to use for beginners. Nice codding options, user friendly interface, good translation of parameters. Would be nice if there are more options added in basic mode. Expert mode is hard just because of translation.

Exceptional app, along with their companion app (BimmerCode - for making BMW firmware/software changes). BimmerLink is great for monitoring vehicle sensors and systems in real time. It also has the ability to view and delete component level faults. These faults can show issues that the vehicle has recorded but that would not normally trigger a checked engine light or be seen with a normal obd2 scanner. extremely helpful, well designed, easy to use...A must have!

super easy to use and just a one time purchase makes it very convenient.

super easy worked great with Bluetooth on. my iPad and I have it on my android phone worked great as well

limited but works well for reading and clearing codes, reading data and doing parking break/dpf work

The app works good until you need to export your log file. For $50 you get a painfully difficult experience of exporting files. If it actually worked right I could email the file to myself and download it then do with it whatever I please. Instead of having that convenience you press send and nothing happens. The only way I can make it work is if I send the email while sitting in front of a computer with my email up and the same time so I can watch it go through. It's so counterintuitive.
