"description": "Screen mirroring your mobile device on the iDrive display is a very handy feature when you need access to popular navigation apps or want to turn on a movie for your passengers. But being able to connect both iPhones and Android smartphones is even more useful, especially when, say, your family and friends with different mobile devices want to show off their photos on a bigger screen. And this is exactly what SmartView HD Flex offers.\nWhat is screen mirroring? It’s a technology that lets you cast the screen of your mobile device onto the BMW’s display, and stream audio through the car speakers. Pairing up our screen mirroring device with your smartphone, you can use your favorite apps in your BMW, including Google Maps or Waze to navigate through the city, Spotify or Tidal to stream your favorite music, and so on.\nSmartView HD Flex lets you screen share Android and iOS devices as well as phones or tablets running other types of operating system. SmartView HD Flex supports:\niOS up to version 13.0\nAndroid up to version 10.0\nBlackberry 10\nWindows 8.1/10\nLinux\nOther operating systems with AirPlay / Miracast support\nPlease note that not all devices running these operating systems support screen mirroring over WiFi. Make sure your smartphone or tablet is compatible with screen sharing over AirPlay or Miracast before purchasing SmartView HD Flex.\nWho is it for?\nSmartView HD Flex is designed for anybody who wants to get more out of their iDrive, without worrying about compatibility. Almost all modern smartphones, and many other devices, support wireless mirroring.\nThe included interface comes with one additional HDMI input (Please note that this feature is not available for E-Series BMWs or F01/F02/F07/F10/F11/F25 vehicles with CIC iDrive. These vehicles will receive a non-HDMI version of SmartView HD Flex.),\nmaking it perfect for modders looking for even more expansionability. You can build any device with an HDMI output into your car, and toggle between inputs with the factory iDrive controller. Let your imagination run wild!\nWhat do I need?\nTo take advantage of wireless mirroring, you only need a device supporting either the AirPlay or Miracast protocols. Please confirm compatibility with the device manufacturer.\nSmartView HD Flex can be fitted in any BMW with an iDrive display.\nHow does it work?\nSmartView HD Flex uses AirPlay for Apple devices, and Miracast for other devices.\nThe receiver has Wi-Fi Direct baked in, to produce its own Wi-Fi network for you to connect your mobile device to. You don't need any additional hardware. Just connect to your SmartView's network via Wi-Fi and start mirroring your display immediately. Consult your device documentation for more information on how to establish an AirPlay/Miracast connection.\nThe HDMI output from SmartView HD Flex means you'll always get great picture and sound quality.",
