I think this is likely the problem... I installed one of the NFC readers off the app store and was able to read the tag in the cradle but can't seem to be prevent the phone from wanted to bring up Apple Pay.

I suspect BMW will need to release a version of the their app that somehow registers itself with the phone as the handler for that tag. Wonder if that means the phone will auto launch the BMW Connected App instead of Apple Pay. Probably better.

Lots of quirks with iPhone right now.. iDrive gets completely confused when playing music playlists in random order. Sometimes, it loses the names of the songs altogether and I see stuff like "~title 40" and it sometimes will play some group of songs over and over. Also, the center display does not match the song playing. Really odd. Coming off an F15 and while the tech is cooler to look at, it may take a few software updates to be as solid.
