Sending routes from the MRA app to a BMW Nav 6...
-
Occasionally, when we're out on the road, we need to be able to choose a route we've already planned from the MRA app and send it to our BMW Nav 6 device to navigate the route.
Is this possible?
I've tried using the Garmin Drive app with my iPhone 13pro but it won't pair with the nav 6 (even though the nav 6 says its paired).
I don't want to have to carry a laptop around with me but currently this is the only way of getting routes onto the nav 6.

No. But you can transfer a route from a device to your NAV 6 using a mini sd in an adaptor.
And again I quote this post from @PAD-0.

@jack-van-tilburg Thats a shame, not exactly practical to be unscrewing the battery cover and removing a micro SD card at the side of the road.....
I wonder if connecting the iPhone and Nav 6 together with a lighting/micros usb cable will make the SD Card available as a place to save the route file without needing to remove it? Just like you do when connecting it via a PC or Mac.

Not when I tried it
