Yep. they have issues right now. I got my new 2019 X5 G05 a couple weeks back and had to be on multiple calls with BMW Genius at the toll free number since none of my apps and services were working. At one point they had to submit a ticket to BMW's IT department. Turnaround time on tickets to them is 7 - 10 business days it turns out.

A couple of days ago the apps and services started to download which was exciting, but the App Store feature has not worked yet. A couple of days ago the remote 360 view in the new car stopped working along with sending destinations from the app in the car and now I can't log in to connecteddrive.bmwusa.com. I think they're working to try to get the bugs in the new cars with the iDrive 7 rollout fixed and this is some some of the stuff we have to deal with until then.

That's crazy man I'm sorry it's a new car too, it's just ridiculous I think it's been a while around and it's still a service that's having hiccups. I also think it's crazy how I happened to retrofit connected drive and this happens right then so I can't tell if it actually retrofitted correctly either. Hoping they solve your stuff

Lmao it's true though and bimmerstyler did it start working yet or still under maintenance because it still is for me, it's switched between no connection and that past week, any updates, I can't bring it to dealership because it's retrofitted and I don't own the title to the car because I only bought this one part from it so on my own with this one LOL

Was still an issue this morning when I tried it again. I just noticed that my app is telling me that the 3D remote view is requiring a privacy setting enabled in the car so they must have done something again to shake this loose. I'll be able to check after 5 again.

LOL I'm just loving the title, they should really have a giant landing page on the bmw website itself to let people know HEY , WERE DOWN, just like a giant "un-connected drive" that lights up when it's down. But yea still no dice for me either what'd the dealer tell you?

EDIT: just gave them a call about it and they said that there are still technical difficulties and that there's no timeframe but as of now they have fixed the remote services portion.

That's a really good idea. Would stop a lot of us calling and annoying them if we could quickly get an answer of an outage. I know I would check it first if it existed. Would have saved me a lot of time.

I get this too! I recently subscribed to the ConnectedDrive Services in my CPO 2015 F30, to get the BMW Apps, and they don't even show up in my car! I've managed to get to the BMW Online part and am able to see things like Weather, Office, etc. But when I connect my phone via Bluetooth or USB, none of the apps like Pandora or Spotify appear anywhere in my iDrive.

Dang man so you were at least able to add the car to your connected drive. I can even receive the pin yet I've been trying everyday.

You're supposed to get a PIN? When I purchased the option, I did it through the ConnectedDrive website and that was it? At least that's all I remember.

It depends if your car is already linked to your connected drive account, sometimes it's already there if your second hand or retrofit you have to add it

Well, I tried the Apps in my car again yesterday after posting this, and it worked. Go figure.

So I'm able to get into BMW Online, as well as see the Apps (Pandora, Spotify, etc.) in my ConnectedDrive/Radio. It's only when I try to get to the Store, I get the maintenance error message from OP's initial post.

I haven't been able to connect to store for months, looks like it's connecting but then I get a "no result found" (?) message.
I was ready to buy the CarPlay add-on (it was there in the store for $300 a while ago)
The "genius" at my dealer had no clue...

Is yours retrofitted too?? And dang that's a while I'm still just getting the maintenance notification do you have any other features like apps?? That's odd did you bring it for them to do a full check on it and did it work at one point? I've called them so many times this week and have gotten "its fixed" and "they're still working on it" it's crazy
