Malvern, I’m pretty sure if you search for the updates in your iDrive then you can install it without having to connect your phone, not gospel of course as I have never had an update!
You get them both ways. For me, when I got into the car there was a msg on the screen notifying me of an update. I also received the same notice from the MyBMW app on my phone. You can either download it to the phone which I would think would be faster if you are in your local WiFi or you can let the car download it via its cellular connection, which will take more time. Either way, once its downloaded it then needs to be installed but you can follow the direction for this once in the car.
