BMW Office issue with Andriod

CHCCubs · 07-26-2016, 08:27 AM

I recently got an Android phone (Galaxy S7) and only see text messages and emails from the "default" account, not all 3 of the email accounts I have set-up on my phone.

With my old BlackBerry I was able to see all 3 email accounts and text messages.

For reference my car is a 2013 with the CIC Nav system that has the BMW Office feature.

Anyone have any ideas?

Is anyone with an Android phone able to view multiple email accounts through iDrive?

Not me, I can only see my primary email account and can't see the other two.

Thanks for confirming.

CHCCubs,

I have a Samsung S4 (Android). I can see text messages and have them read to me or dictate replies, using Dragon Nuance (I broke down and sprang for it).

As far as EMail goes, I get no EMails from my phone, even if I connect via USB or the snap-in adaptor. The only way I get to EMail is through ConnectedDrive Portal, but that is CLUNKY to say the least. You have to log in each time and then you can only see (or have read the first paragraph or so of an EMail and you can not reply, not say anything of the absolutely terrible way the cam up with to write a new message.

Interesting that you don't get emails at all. I guess I'll consider myself lucky that I at least get one email account showing up.

I've tried a few things since my original post such as deleting and re-pairing the phone, but unfortunately it appears that I am only able to see emails from the "default" account.

CHCCubs,
At least the BMW Bluetooth web site was correct for my phone, saying that EMail didn't come through.

BTW, have been pleasantly surprised with Dragon Nuance's ability to convert my speech into text very accurately
