It was just like everyone said...

i downloaded the app and had problems logging in too...

finally called BMW Assist and they walked me through it..

all caps username... (which is email you registered for BMW Assist or My BMW online)

all caps password...

if you're locked out you'll need to call them to reset... and it will take up to 24hours..

finally registered it and got it to work... not that great an app if you ask me...

you get to remotely unlock/disarm the vehicle but it will not arm itself when you lock it again... a disclaimer reminds you of this so it is how they designed it... not sure why they kept this out...

there's no headlight or horn feature like the pics show...

but the vehicle locator is nice...

not really useful for anything else... kind of a waste of development efforts..

they should have developed a feature that will call your phone if your vehicle's alarm is triggered or moved (since it can communicate with it)

someone obviously forgot to complete the project...
