What does the third from the bottom regarding ASS mean?

This was a weird update for me. When it finished it wouldn’t recognize my digital keys or the key fob from within the car. I had to hold the key fob next to the steering column to start the car. After that all digital keys in my watch and phone started working again. This was yesterday evening before the BMW services hurricane outage that I was just reading about.

Same here. I used the card key to get in. When I entered I got a notification on the screen that comfort access needs some time to finish setting up and that it can take up to 30 minutes.

I never carry my key fob as I always use comfort access via the UWB on the iPhone. But this is also why I also always carry my card key.

No and not even sure where to find it (before my 3 months free Digital Premium expires).

The accent color is red.
The font is squatter and thicker, sportier racier looking.

Not available in Canada yet but....can anyone who has upgraded and uses Android Auto AND had persistent disconnects say whether the release has made this more stable or not?

That's the one thing I'm hoping for. AA has been virtually unusable since the last update (03/24) received in April

I don't know if it's available in the UK yet, as unless I've missed any posts from UK
Owners, it might not be. I have a UK (RHD) M35i. However, I'm currently in Spain and noticed the message that it was available on the mybmw app yesterday. I have downloaded it to my phone, but not been in it yet to upload to the car. Might be tomorrow now.

I did not have any disconnects prior to the update, but since updating, I have them on every drive.

I need to turn Bluetooth off and on for it to connect again.

A real pain...

It is available in Canada. I received notification on mondayor tuesday, and did the download, and when I went to install the app said my battery was too low, so I drove around for a while, and all went thru ok.

Yes I installed it Wednesday evening.

Mine is still showing “Available later this year” in the App.

Is there any way to force the update? I’m in the NYC region and haven’t received any notice for updates and doesn’t find any when I check for updates.

if you have a couple of hours, let the dealer do the update for you.

Not sure if it was the reason, but I toggled the WiFi and privacy settings on and off today and went for a drive. Notified me of an update by the end of the drive.

My car keeps saying the starter battery doesn’t have enough charge. I’ve gone on a few drives since and still not charging enough. Not sure how I’m going to get enough charge as I don’t drive long trips - ICE obviously.

Our car (UK) was updated this week.

[Hartside]

UK also and got the update last Thursday, installed yesterday

I got the software update notification in California on 9/29 around noon.
Download and installation were a breeze.

Unfortunately, the servers were down at that time, so the app was not updating the status.

I reset the vehicle to factory settings (probably unnecessarily), and set the profiles (etc.) backup after the connecteddrive services were restored later the same day.

It took my a couple of trials to reset the digital key to my phone (Then, I remembered that both physical keys had to be in the car, not just one).

I ended up having some trouble with My Trips, that was no showing up in the privacy settings.
Rebooting iDrive fixed the issue.
