With Google Maps now available for CarPlay (Hallelujah ) it has me wondering if there is a way to add it to one of the 8 functional bookmarks.

I know you can add "now playing" and Apple maps to functional bookmarks since those are options within the BMW iDrive system. However, is there a way to add other CarPlay apps to a functional bookmark that are not located anywhere in the iDrive system?

Thanks!

I wouldn't think so, two separate systems with very very very little cross-over barring what you have mentioned.

I've found Google Maps to be horrendous, using that slows down CarPlay, my phone keeps disconnecting from CarPlay and audio doesn't resume after voice directions. Stop using the Google Maps app and everything is good, even with Apple Maps.
