BMW Motorrad connected app quick tutorial. GPS, GPX import, winding route features

[@SteveSeadog]

It's an incredible app - thanks for the clear instructions on how to use it.

[@pgVeritas]

Thanks for a great tour of the app in a calm and authoritative manner. I use Waze in my car, plus the Merc factory installed satnav. Waze is terrible if you take a wrong turn or decide to turn off the route. It takes so long to recalculate. On the Connected App, it recalculates instantaneously. I’m about to take my first non-commuting trip next week, and I’m going to try the embedded photos. I had a “moment” yesterday commuting to London when the rear nearly went. It was relatively low speed, just coming off a roundabout around 20-30mph. I think I hit some oil or diesel. Fortunately, the bike stayed upright. I was expecting to see that the traction control had saved me, but there was no registered intervention. I guess luck saved me on that occasion.

It has Belén a VERY helppy vídeo dude!! Thanks a lot!!! 👌 ✌️✌️✌️

[@jasonpountney670]

Brilliant, thanks

[@thecorporategypsy]

Great job on the app. How do you get the gpx file from the app to the sat nav unit itself? As well if I want turn by turn vs a track, how does that work? Thank you

Any idea why the Favorites function does not appear to work well? When I select the star icon on a ride (within the Recorded Rides main page), the star changes to blue color, which I assumed meant the ride was added to my Favorites. But it is not. Perhaps a bug in the app?

[@terryweller1744]

Great video, thank. Explained more things than I realized where available. I was wondering if there was a way to add favourites to the application. I can't seem to figure that one out.

[@motoplaisirmotorcyclerenta9381]

Just published a short to show the feature.

[@paulchambers2296]

Great video, thank you👍. Picking my Connected app cradle up tomorrow, I know I pair my phone to the cradle but do I pair my helmet comms to my phone or the TFT? Thanks.

[@mattiastjulander4265]

I have a question. I have the same app and us different bikes. Do you now if it’s possible to record routs whit out driving your GS?

[@terrencegreen9560]

Thank you for your video do you know how to show stops along a route. I set up a journey with coffee stop lunch stop etc but none of the showed on the screen.

[@ianstreet1581]

Is there a way for the waypoint name to be announced rather than it just saying "you are arriving at your waypoint on your left" as this would be helpful if you have set waypoints with information.

[@abcusa123mich]

Can I import individual way points or favorites instead of whole routes?

[@marcfalardeau6058]

Merci cousin français pour cette belle explication. J’utilise cette app sur mon GS 1250 depuis seulement 1 semaine et je suis très satisfait. Ma question: lorsque je visionne un trajet déjà fait avec la flèche bleue en mouvement sur la carte je remarque tout au long du parcours des icônes gris ( abs ) qui sont présents . Qu’est-ce que ces icônes représentent? Merci, Marc Trois-Rivières, Québec. 😉🏍

[@motoplaisirmotorcyclerenta9381]

Ce sont les moment où l'ABS s'est déclenché.

[@robertlee8042]

Annecy is a great place.

[@andrewbooth4341]

Does the way points show up on the map when you are moving if the route is imported from a gpx

[@ritvarsrizikovs7117]

Is it possible to control with wheel some external Navigation apps (Locus Maps, Osmand, Google Maps, Waze). Does the steer wheel control the phone if somebody is calling?

How to connect cradle to 2018 BMW without BT ?

[@stuipooey1]

When you import a route as a GPX the app does not show waypoints on the map and doesnt allow waypoints to be added. Its a pity as apart from this the app is quite

[@adrianb220]

I notice when I am riding the GPS disappears then comes back on..how do I let the directions stay on all the time

[@adrianblake2671]

So does the nap show on the tft screen on the bike?

[@motoplaisirmotorcyclerenta9381]

On the GS, the map is not displayed on the screen. The maps is displayed by the phone app.

[@adrianblake2671]

So how does it show on the bike screen
