The app and functionality is good, but there is one bad note: This app time from time requires authorisation and consequently internet connection. Sometimes I have to use this app in order to enable XDrive and in this place (deep forest or field) there is probability that the internet connection is empty. My suggestion is the app to show a notification that the season is going to be excited "Please login"

2008 535xi to RWD. Amazing! It boggles my mind that BMW had the technology somehow so that it's possible for me to flash on my phone so many options for AWD to RWD and everything in-between. Why didn't it come with a button you push as an option back in 2008? Now,15 years later, although I've had it for 2 years now , I can flash it with my phone in 45 seconds? There are some brilliant minds behind this app,and I tip my hat to them every time I get behind the wheel. With MHD & alot of mods WOW!

Be careful updating this app. It now requires an internet connection for the app to work and "re-authorize" your account every couple weeks. Very sneaky and not mentioned. Meaning if you use this on a non cellular tablet and get stuck at the bottom of the hill, good chance the app won't work and let you switch back to AWD-until you find wifi or hope your cell phone hot spot works.... Was 5 stars until they did this. Otherwise everything works great.

Thank you for your feedback. With the next app-update the re-auth is only needed every 365 days, which should be more than enough. This period stretches again, every time you open the app. So technically a re-auth should only be necessary again, when changing device.
