Absurdly Bad
The car? Nice.
The app? The entire connected experience? Horrible. Why should it take hours for updates to download? Why must the car be driven for updates to load from phone to auto? A nightmare. This will take days to complete just like the last time and the time before.
Update: the “update” is just as awful this time around. Maybe even worse.
Did the “update” ruin it even more? This is amateur work.

Fails often
Says the car is locked but it’s not. No way to refresh the data. Info is poorly organized. Generally flaky app.
Ads in my notifications
Sends ads to the same notification channel as useful vehicle updates. Abusive software design by BMW.
no option to turn off spam
constant notifications about “offers” and new products I didn’t ask for and can’t turn off
Country S Red
Nice
Hate updates
I hate the damn updates. Always has to be on a flat surface. Not everyone has that.
Love this app,
Love how I can get help with finding my mini as well as starting the air flow! I still have so many things to learn more. These are so far my favorite.
Too much selling
A lot of selling, but little substance (see Tesla’s app)
Sale of data
I’m all for upgrading software as necessary. I absolutely do not want my data sold out monitored. I expect better from Mini.

I need auto start
If you lost the app on your pre-2019…
Here is a navigation solution since Mini won’t tell you this, and will not fix the problems the loss of their app caused for people who have navigation systems.
First, look up your trips using Siri via Apple Car Play so it accesses the Maps app on your phone, not using the mini assistant nor the mini nav screen. (Hold the button on your steering wheel longer to get Siri instead of the mini assistant.) After Siri locates your destination on the display, there will be a small icon that looks like a paper with an arrow next to the destination name; pressing that will give an option to transfer it directly to your mini navigation. Then it will use your car navigation for the trip: heads up display, etc. as if you set the destination through the mini navigation.
Super easy, and routes are arguably more accurate than the mini navigation. You can pre-plan trips and save them in your iPhone’s Apple Maps to pull them more quickly, if that is your need.

My 2026 CooperS
I’ve owned several Minis now and have been problem free. I love the handling, the ease of parking, the gas mileage. One minor problem- at least I hope it’s minor. Press the accelerator and nothing happens for about two seconds. Instinctively, you press harder, and the transmission engages and you lurch forward. This can be serious if you’re backing out of a parking spot. Or if you’re on a slope and you’re in traffic. I’m hoping the service people can adjust this.

All I really care about is CarPlay connectivity and it’s very glitchy

Nice little freeware
A little bit slow but probably because it’s free. Information are useful except using it to make appointments…mostly are selections can not reflect the real issues
Sales/Service
Received a great tutorial on the car's tech.
My mini
Nothing but praise.
It’s a piece of ***
The software makes everything unusable
Too slow
Way too slow to control my car
Best app
I can not get enough with this app!
It’s so easy to work with and so reliable!
