BMW should implement Apple's CarPlay and Android Auto. ConnectedDrive is so poorly done and auto manufacturers, including BMW, have a very poor track record with software. They always have a poor UI and are 3-4yrs behind the consumer electronics technology.

BMW has proven it's ineptitude with the i3 app, check any of the many threads on user's problem. And look at how BMW handles software updates to the car, a day in the shop, versus Tesla which does it over the air.

Let the consumer electronics guys handle the interface to consumer electronics. BMW should be busy enough trying to catch up with Tesla on basic car software functionality.
