Protect Your BMW with a Code only you know! xProtect turns your car’s existing controls into a powerful security feature. This app lets you create a unique code that must be entered inside your vehicle before driving. Without the correct code, the car remains stationary — even if someone has copied your key or hijacked the remote signal. All you need is our xA Ultra Wi-Fi adapter (or compatible) for installing xProtect to your car. No permanent modifications are required. How It Works • Connect the App to your car via our xA Ultra Wi-Fi adapter. • Create a custom code inside the xProtect app, using your vehicle’s existing controls. • Enter the code before driving. • Wrong code or no code? The car won’t move. No additional hardware installations are required. No rewiring. Just smart protection. Why You’ll Love It • Advanced theft protection even against the latest tamper technology • Only requires our xA Ultra Wi-Fi adapter — no vehicle installation • Uses existing vehicle controls • Customizable code — change it anytime • Discreet and effective — invisible and impossible to remove for the bad guys • Full control through the app Smart Security, made simple Modern car theft requires modern anti theft solutions. Add an extra level of protection that only you control — directly from your phone. No code. No drive. Note xProtect is an additional access feature and does not replace or modify factory-installed vehicle security or safety systems. Supported functions may vary depending on vehicle model and configuration.
