Is anyone else disappointed with the Connected Ride App?
IMO the app itself is OK if not a bit "clunky" (having to re-connect every time the bike is even briefly turned off and restarted, I suppose I can live with that)
But what I really don't like is the quality of the map itself. For one thing, the font used is so small as to be nearly impossible to read. For another, the bike's location is in the center of the screen meaning that 1/2 the map shows me where I've already been. It would be nice if the icon could be moved around on the display. Lastly, I have contacted BMW through the contact us part of the app as well as on my home computer. The only thing I've gotten so far is a confirmation of receipt - the auto-reply. It makes me wonder if anyone is really reading the feedback.
