The Imfamous Y Cable & BMW Apps

Having a new 2014 BMW X1 and an iPhone 4S has taken a while to figure out how to use the BMW Apps and the phone together.

After screwing around for awhile, trying dealer suggestions (that did not work) I finally figured out that to use the BMW Apps and Web Radio you need to use the ORIGINAL Apple cord that came with your phone. Also, you MUST turn off the Bluetooth on your phone first, then connect it to the USB port in the Bimmer, Start the BMW Connect app on the telephone. Once the app is running, then go back on the phone and turn ON the BlueTooth.

This is the only way that I have been able to make this work in the '14 X1.

Hope this helps others.
