How to find and download a map update for your navigation on your computer – BMW How-To

BMW How-To explains step by step how to find and download a map update for your BMW navigation system on your computer.
There are two ways to update your map data: via the ConnectedDrive Store or with a BMW-certified USB stick.

If you want to download the latest update via the ConnectedDrive Store, please note that you need a USB device with at least 64 GB in FAT32 format.
You can choose between a two-year or one-year subscription or an individual download via the BMW ConnectedDrive Store.

In the ConnectedDrive Store, go to “Remote Cockpit” and select “Control”. After selecting your computer operating system, and download the BMW Update Manager. You will be prompted to log in again and the download will start.
If you have chosen to update the map with a BMW Certified USB stick, you can simply buy it.

Kind of weird that you need to pay to get an updated map in 2020. That will end up with the death of the nav car system in favor of just using a smartphone. AKA Apple Maps, Google Maps, Waze, etc etc etc

[BSGSV]

The BMW website looks nothing like what is shown in the video, nor is there any clear way to access map updates.

[successful_manager]

Agreed. Just paid 50gs almost for suv and now find out it doesn’t include updated maps. Wow

[DeanDeen]

Remote Cockpit is no longer there as a feature, which makes this video obsolete. Would recommend removing it as it just makes confusion.

[ronaldevans]

The website does not have these options anymore and map updates appear to not be accessible at all from the site.

[olibaylis]

Would make a lot of sense to include the download instructions in the email sent from Connected Drive. Have had to Google this a couple of times now before finding the update link on the website.

I don’t get why we need to use USBs in 2020, downloading via wifi? 5g? Have you thought about these options?

[Zinglebarb]

Does the app copy the data over ? I have a massive file and Fat32 max file size is 4GB

[Minecollysel]

Brazil does not have any of this features... Really sad

[Maverik]

Is this still possible. Can’t find anything on the website.

[georgeiliopoulos]

You should be ashamed that you ask money for such an antiquated system that needs to be updated so often and that your software still has problems downloading. Everything else that uses sat nav technology updates automatically ie mob phones and has for the last 15 yrs + but the car industry has another window opening to continue making money off the public purposely installing antiquated systems. Maybe they should not incorporate the price of the sat nav in the purchase price of a new car bc you are fundamentally getting the framework of a sat nav system.

I have a 2018 version of maps ínstalled in my vehicule but in the download manager appear a 2015 version for my car

FAT32 64GB flash drive?
Why put a circle over the Apple logo on the laptop lid then show the man clicking the mac button in the software?
Who edits this stuff?

[ayubbeayub]

ce n'est marche pas sur btw gran tourer

[TheBimmerMan]

hey there BMW, just wondering if 128GB FAT32 will work? thanks!

[SifisoJcooler]

This is silk. 99 years then we get cyberpunk cars

[cascaleon]

This is false!! i have an active subscription that expires tommorow and I dont have any option to update, download or any similar procedure to update the maps. and its a paid subscription. Its just shameful to advertise and sell products that are not like this video shows!

[mjtfield]

Why do you have a narrator with a British accent? Why not a German accent? This makes no marketing sense.

[ceejay]

I wonder whose coming here to like this vidoe. His should be the most disliked or hated video of all times!
