Widgets stopped displaying...?

otay · 07-21-2020, 03:32 PM

Hey, widgets stopped displaying a while back and recently tried to get it working again, with no success.

BMW Online works fine, and I can show other stuff in the split screen like nav info. But none of the widgets will display. Just getting the small icon with a speaker as in picture below. I think the icon means it's trying to speak something??
Any ideas? Thx!

Anyone else using widgets? Are they working?

As of a Week ago, Ie last time I’d drove the car, they were.

To follow up as promised, they have been working this week also.
sometimes in the garage they don’t get a signal and won’t load, changing widget to another then back Again once outside will load them.

Thanks. I can't get any of the widgets to work anywhere, everything else is fine.

I'm going to try to reset the idrive with BimmerLink (or maybe BimmerCode).

Used BimmerCode to change the iDrive startup display...thinking that the coding process and subsequent restart of iDrive might reset things, but no joy. Widgets still do not display.

Certainly not the end of the world, just bugs me...
