Apple CarPlay & Android Auto MMI Prime Kit For BMW

Demo video:

Do you dream of using Apple Maps on your car screen or listening to Spotify through the BMW speakers? All this is possible with BMW CarPlay MMI.

CarPlay MMI is the next generation of our multimedia bridge that lets you connect your phone to your BMW or MINI either wirelessly or via cable. Fully integrated with the native iDrive display and controller, it feels and works just like OEM BMW Apple CarPlay. Now with even smoother software, new interface, and an HDMI port.

With plenty of apps at your fingertips you can choose whether you want to access your favorite music tracks via YouTube Music or Spotify, chat with your peers through WhatsApp or Messages, or take advantage of Google Maps and Waze while navigating through the city. Just pair up your iPhone wirelessly and you’re good to go!

To conveniently control and switch between the apps you can use your iDrive’s built-in controls, including iDrive controller, steering wheel buttons, Siri voice commands or touchscreen if your BMW features one.

Thanks to the additional BMW Android Auto support our upgrade also allows you to access all of your favorite smartphone apps as well. To control and switch between apps you can use the iDrive controller, Siri, or steering wheel buttons.

Please note that it is not possible to play audio from CarPlay or Android Auto apps and audio from native iDrive apps (including radio and navigation) at the same time.

Compatible Models:

Compatible with ALL BMW CIC / NBT(ID4) / EVO(ID5/ID6)

How does it work?

While the unit (CarPlay Kit) is inactive, the original video signal is passed unchanged, and your car works as before. 

After activating the CarPlay Kit, the CarPlay Kit video signal is shown on the display instead. 

When you reverse the car while using the CarPlay system, the system will automatically switch to the camera without manual operation. You can easily switch system back and forth between the unit and your original head unit. 

(TIPS: Press and hold the “Menu” button to switch the system)
