andrewwynn will become famous soon enough
FYI: so the software wants to do a full system scan each use. You can pause as soon as the module (eg DME) passes so you don't have to wait.

I made a video using my foxwell and my thinkdiag going through the steps to engage the AC compressor and it took 90 seconds with foxwell and 30 seconds with the think diag. (and light years ahead on interface).

My report. Tried the scantool, very straightforward and easy to program features from the Comfort Access System on my E66.
Disabled the automatic steering adjustment.

Had an issue where my registration serial number was invalid, and so I sent a message to the built-in support chat. They responded within 1 hour and reset to another serial which worked. After you register, they'res an option for a free 'package' of sorts which gives you the scan and program for a specific manufacturer, which in my case was BMW.

The only issue I encountered was the dimensions where the body of the tool meets the obd port is too wide and so I can't plug it into my port. I had to use an obd port extension cord.
