Carly App for F-series

Hey all,

Since I came from an e92 I have the Carly app on my phone still (paid $50 for it). I hear rumors that they are in the final stages of testing for coding functions for the app on F-series cars. I am curious if this includes the F8x's as well. It would be nice to have the easy coding abilities of the app back. I just got my netbook coding setup working and am able to code but having the convenience of the app is awesome.

Anyone know about this?

Looks interesting, but I am weary about how they will be able to code the F8x or F3x platform... I would love a solution where I can code from my ipad wirelessly, but the only trustworthy/secure solution that I use is TM's Esys Launcher Premium (aka Esys).

I've used it, it works well but the coding functionality is very limited (at least as of right now) in comparison to coding using e-sys.

I just used it last night..I was able to code a few options on my F80 like I had on my E92. I'm waiting on them to finish with the idrive function to be able to watch movies on the go.

All in all a good App.

I'm reviving this thread to see if anyone else has experience with the Carly for BMW. I'm curious to see if it's fried any FRM modules on the F8x models as has been noted in an earlier post about the e9x.

I'll join you in the revival I too am curious about Carly on the F8x and leary about the E9x FRM issues. Please advise.

Furthermore, I'm interested to know if anyone has had exierience with the Bimmercode app and, if so, how it compares to Carly?

Thanks in advance!

Carly can do alot of things. First thing I did was coding out my start stop feature.
Second I did was disabling my annoying seatbelt reminder chime.
Attached is an picture of the home screen on my iphone 7.
It's in german language but as soon as you download it it'll be in english, so don't worry.

Heres an copy & paste of the Carly forums 5€ coupon code:

BEFORE you place your AMAZON order, send this 5€ Coupon code:

4ZECQD

to trainer@mycarly.com
Explain in your email from wich amazon you'd prefer to order (US/UK/Canada/UAE)

Then wait for Carlys reply containing your "special" AMAZON 5€ coupon code.

Step into the world of some serious money saving
If you got questions feel free to PM me, no prob!

Heres more info on the subject:

Works fine on my F30 LCI. Now able to code iDrive things like getting rid of CONFIRM. Like the fact I could turn off STOP/START in COMFORT/SPORT/SPORT+ modes but leave it on IN ECO-PRO mode. One nifty Android app.

I had a friend use Carly on my car. Couldn't activate Euro LED, but managed to do pretty much everything else I wanted easily.

I'm also thinking about Carly. I don't have a windows laptop and the whole eSys thing looks like a total PITA.

Can you control the exhaust valves with this app? if so it would be worth it to me just for that. The rest would be a bonus.
