as for it not working have them add a new digital key for you and it should be fine. this is done through their system
Yeah actually did "clear data and clear cache"; have also uninstalled and reinstalled the the app too, seems the app does not recognize that a new key has been purchased/authorized/renewed or perhaps the old digital key got stranded on the NFC chip as I removed it from iDrive in the car before removing it from the phone, not sure.

Charging $20 bucks annually for the privilege of having the convenience of using my phone is kinda an insult after paying $82K for the car..lots of aggravation little reward.

I can always use the key card but that's in my wallet, don't always carry my wallet when I'm hanging around my house and just want to move the car.
it's okay, I was at the dealership yesterday and no amount of reissuing and messing with it would get mine working again. the dealer opened a PUMA (or whatever they call) case with BMW about it
