- Introducing our first Android Auto & CarPlay for Supra video! Big thanks to Joe, that was an awesome project :D

It’s your be-all and end-all solution to use your favourite phone apps, such as Waze, Google Maps, Spotify, Audible, WhatsApp and more, straight from your iDrive screen.

SO MUCH effort 😵💫
From your demo it looks like this completely replacing the original infotainment system. Could you clarify if this is simply an add on menu selection and you still land on the standard iDrive home page or if it replaces that?
No it doesn't replace the OEM menu - it is still there and you can come back to it whenever you want using the iDrive controller.
Am I missing something or does a brand new sports car with an infotaiment system not have AA and CarPlay stock?
Yes, you are right. It's really shameful for BMW.... ekhm Toyota. But yeah, it is what it is
Finally!
So will this run the latest Android auto where you can have the split screen view? Not just the clock? Spotify can be on the right side of the screen while maps or whatever else is on the left hand side?
Yes, this works on newsy updates. It switches to Spotify on the right if you have Google maps turned on, or to Google maps on the right of you have Spotify.
@@bimmer-tech what about amazon musi
I need this
You're very welcome to have it :)
Can you do a tutorial of how it works, i have a 2021 Honda Accord that a flawless android auto system. So i'd like to see how this compares.
We'll remember about it :) Here's how it works on BMWs with CIC head units: ruclips.net/video/IM5RcSvFWcA/видео.html
So music played through spotify will be sent to the MMI prime using wifi then the mmi prime will send an analogue signal to factory head unit via AUX? So the MMI prime has an internal DAC which converts the audio from digital to analogue? I have an aftermarket audio system and want to keep the signal fully digital all the way to the MOST pre amp and DSP amplifier, I don't want the audio converted to analogue then back to digital, can you please explain how the MMI will pass audio? Thanks
Hi Emalio! Sorry for late reply! So, answering for the first two questions - That is true! It sounds like you have quite an audio system in there and in this case if you want to retain the full fidelity of the MOST output. If you're an iPhone user and your BMW is compatible with an NBT EVO retrofit - it will be the way to go to keep your audio on MOST and get CarPlay. If you're on android - it might be possible to keep the audio output from your phone on Bluetooth to the head unit while using the MMI. We haven't tested it as there are so many different builds of Android Auto for different phones - it would be difficult to confirm ahead of time. iPhones just don't let you do that, while some Android phones do.
Hope the answer is enough for you!
Cheers :D
You guys have any installers close to vermont? I have the manual 2023 A91
HI,
here is the official map of our installers! Check it out: www.bimmer-tech.net/page-installers
Is there a list of installers in the US where we can search it looks pretty straightforward but I would rather someone that knows what they're doing it install it than me
Sure you can find your nearest installer here: www.bimmer-tech.net/page-installers
My Supra doesn’t have Apple CarPlay so would this add both Apple CarPlay and wireless Apple CarPlay or just the standard CarPlay ?
The MMI module adds CarPlay with wireless and wired functionality, as well as Android Auto and screen mirroring solution.
Will the navigation information from android auto show on the hud?
Not with this retrofit unfortunately. Only OEM Android Auto will be compatible with the HUD.
When you do a new screen can it be more pointed to the driver ?
It depends more on what BMW..sorry, Toyota decide to do in their future cars :)
When you do this - do you lose bluetooth capabilities entirely?
Hello Micheal! Absolutely not! You don't lose the bluetooth capabilities, since Mmi Prime is a separate device. The connection with the phone is held by in-built WIFI antenna :)
Cheers!
Will you be able to enable video in motion?
Please send your VIN to our sales team and they'll check if that possible for your Supra: www.bimmer-tech.net/page-contact
Is it possible to change the "blue" background color?
I know with the Stock CarPlay you can go full screen, can Android Auto utilize the entire screen for a map, or will it always be in split mode?
Will Touchscreen work with Android Auto?
Yes, you can change your wallpaper.
The original Android Auto will take up up to 80% of the screen - you'd most likely need coding to unlock the full screen mode. Our retrofit on the other hand provides AA full screen by default.
The touchscreen works only with the OEM Android Auto. If you'd retrofit it with a kit like ours the touchscreen capability would be unavailable.
@@bimmer-tech so you're saying by upgrading using this kit, I can obtain wireless AA but not use the touchscreen to input map addresses, change music, etc?
@BimmerTech i'm interested in hearing the answer to this question too.
@@JordanRealEstateGroup Has this gotten answered? It's my question as well.
@@MTang777 I don't know, I went with the 2022 BMW M240i over the Supra.
my supra 2.0 didn’t come with apple car play if i install this will it have apple car play?
Please send us the last 7 digits of your VIN and we'll check if you're compatible with CarPlay MMI Prime.
Hi, do you have service or at least distribution in Barcelona, Spain? Thanks
Hi, we ship our products all around the world, including Spain :) But we don't have any local service in this area.
@@bimmer-tech Ok, I think I am able to install myself. But, I am worried about the last part, the aux in hack with the laptop. Can I do myslef or I need special software or hardware?
Is it possible to get android auto with touchscreen enabled for this car?
Only OEM Android Auto works with a touchscreen. If your head unit is MGU (iDrive 7.0) you can activate Android Auto in your car: www.bimmer-tech.net/category-bmw-android-auto-activation. If older, like NBT EVO ID5/6, the only option is to add Android Auto retrofit without a touchscreen capability.
@@bimmer-tech So for the Supra MKV, the answer is that it is not possible to get Android auto working with touchscreen? Is that correct?
Will this work on a base model? Also are there screen replacements for the base?
We don't have any screen replacements for Supra yet. In terms of CarPlay MMI Prime, you can check whether you're compatible by entering your VIN here: www.bimmer-tech.net/category-bmw-carplay-mmi-retrofit
@@bimmer-tech how about now
CAN I STILL USE MY TOUCH SCREEN?
If you switch to an OEM iDrive menu, yes. In the MMI menu, no.
Could this work on a '21 3.0?
Depends on your iDrive system. If it's MGU then unfortunately not, but if NBT Evo then sure. Enter your VIN here to check: www.bimmer-tech.net/category-bmw-carplay-mmi-retrofit
This is a lot of work for Android auto
If don't have time for installing such upgrade yourself you can always use the help of one of our installers :) www.bimmer-tech.net/page-installers
I beg to differ. 45 min for install would save hours over the life of the car wishing it had Android Auto in the first place.
I dont get why you have to code it, can you explain that part?
So what if an international buyer buys that kit, he installs the hardware, he is not good to go because he still has to 'code it'?
So he cannot hear music from his iPod or Smartphone?
He cannot use Android Auto?
Basically I wanna know, if I was to order this kit and install it myself, WITHOUT coding, can I:
- use Android Auto, (dont care wireless or via the USB connection)
- still play music from my iPod or smartphone like before?
thx
Remote coding session is important for those Supras which don't have an AUX input, as all sound coming through your Android Auto works via AUX. You can learn more about remote coding here: ruclips.net/video/EeNw6MPzpck/видео.html
@@bimmer-tech aight! Thx for the info!
@Erikootje please see the edited comment above :)
