I just noticed that my ConnectedDrive iPhone app is taking up 1.94 GB. That seems very excessive. Does anyone know why? I wonder if it has downloaded an iDrive update that it is secretly holding onto?

It's your 3D View stored pictures.

Even with 3 every 2 hours, we can take a lot of pics :-).

you have to enable remote 3D view in iDrive as well as other settings I cant remember in order for it to work right. even then your car has to be outside in the open with a good cell signal for it to work. get the GPS location of the car before trying the remote 3d feature. Sometimes I have to close the app out and restart it, and that'll get it to work

I’ve tried about everything mentioned on here to get my app to work. It hasn’t worked for two months but today it updated the fuel and stuff and current mileage but the remote functions still don’t work. Put a ticket in with CD about 2 months ago. Haven’t heard a thing. Should call again but I’m not that confident that they will help. Funny thing is I have two vehicles on my app and the other one works great (2019 X2).

can you take a screenshot of the main page and the INFO tab. Does it have anything listed enabled/disabled?

Has a whole list of enabled functions. Nothing disabled. I went into my log in data on the ConnectedDrive site online recently. Was missing a BMW ID field. I filled it in and now I’ve gotten a few messages in the vehicle today stating my login is invalid. I used my email and a password when my profile was first created not a BMW ID which is not an email address.

I randomly had my vehicle kick me out of my profile and force the guest account a few months back. I ended up changing my ConnectedDrive password and logging back in. I hate to recommend deleting everything on the car and starting again, but sometimes it seems to be the only option. I feel like the dealership will anyway, so I’d rather be pissed doing it myself than get my car back and start driving home with no personal settings.

Does the X2 have iDrive 6 I assume? I love iDrive 7, but it’s finicky at times. What’s the exact message you get in Remote View when you try? Weird that the cell connection is that weak!
