SmartThings no longer showing up in car

Anyone use SmartThings, specifically the integration with ConnectedDrive and iDrive?

In the BMW Connected iOS app, I’ve logged in to my SmartThings account and it says my car is supported, but it does not show up in iDrive like it says it should.

I did have it working years ago on an f32.

Just thought I would see if anyone else has it working.

Just to follow up on my original post, I’ve since cut out SmartThings all together. What I was trying to do is automate some Kasa devices (lights, plugs) from the car.

I’ve since discovered that, by using HomeBridge, you can link Kasa devices to Apple HomeKit (they are not normally supported). As well, you can link a myQ garage door opener, which is also not natively supported by HomeKit.

Anyway, I’m in the process of getting it all set up and it seems to work quite well.
