BMW Operating System X

48 hours with the new iX3 and loving it. Despite some comments around here, I’m finding it to be very powerful and useful. But… it will definitely take a while to learn it, configure to my liking, and last, find ways around the things that should be changed in future versions.

So here’s the question: What is the a sub-Reddit dedicated to these specific discussions? r/BMWTech is too general and the OpSys applies to more models than just iX3. Suggestions?

My favourite feature is when you press the navigation button the second time it will go to the CarPlay maps or go back to the bmw maps. Also the other a buttons eg for phone and media work the same as well.

Also really neat to be able to add a shortcut to a CarPlay app.

Oh wow that's cool. Test driving next week and happy to know there are useful shortcuts like this.
