BMW Factory Apple CarPlay Activation plus Video in Motion & Screen Mirroring

Modernise the interior feel and experience of your BMW with the addition of factory Apple CarPlay complete with full screen* activation! This process unlocks the full capabilities of your existing EVO headunit to allow you to enjoy what should’ve been available straight from the factory. No aftermarket hardware or disassembly* of your car required – this is all done via coding using original BMW software and results in full wireless Apple CarPlay just as BMW intended.

✅ Factory Wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Screen Mirroring and Video in Motion
✅ Access to all the up-to-date navigational apps including Waze, Apple Maps and Google Maps
✅ Ability to play all of one's favourite tunes with Spotify, YouTube Music and SoundCloud or simply have TuneIn Radio playing which offers far more stations than even factory DAB radio
✅ Siri assistant for hands-free voice commands to set things like navigation, reply to texts and messages plus more

Either carry out the activation process yourself with on-hand guidance or have us carry out the activation for you.

If this sounds like what you’ve been wanting and what your BMW is lacking then simply get in touch and let’s make things happen!

Please note that factory Apple CarPlay can ONLY be activated on the following iDrive headunit versions (late 2015 and newer);
- NBTevo ID4 (Requires flash update to ID5/6)
- NBTevo ID5
- NBTevo ID6
- EnavEvo (Headunit must have a WLAN port)

To check your headunit version: 
Go to Navigation > Press Options Button > Go to Settings > Go to Position & Version History > Check Version - You will see 'NBTEVO_XXXXX'

Alternatively, simply send through either your VIN or Reg and we'll be able to confirm compatibility for you.

If your BMW isn't equipped with one of the above Evo based headunits, we can offer alternative options with adding Apple CarPlay to the majority of BMW models.

Note: This process can only activate Apple CarPlay. This cannot activate Android Auto as BMW did not support Android Auto until the introduction of MGU / ID7 found in the recent models of today such as the G20 3 Series. However we do offer alternative solutions for adding this so feel free to still get in touch if you’d be in pursuit of adding Android Auto to your BMW for all you Android users.

Please ensure to add your VIN in the comment section when purchasing to ensure the quickest turn around time.

* Some vehicle models may require the installation of a WiFi / WLAN antenna if not already equipped which involves disassembly of the interior to access the WLAN port on the back of the headunit.

* Full screen CarPlay is only available on 'NBTevo_N' onwards (earlier versions will be limited to 2/3 view). A headunit firmware update will be required to enable full screen CarPlay which can be organised as an additional service.
