I only have the My BMW App on the phone. Where can i change the polling interval? I only entered the Emailadress, the password and the token from the rest of the world.

Go to the settings (right click) of your device (your car)

Hi, I use the app to my complete satisfaction. I only have a question about geofencing. Could someone explain to me what I can do with it specifically? And how should I set it up? Could you give an example of a flow that you can create with it? I am very curious. Who can help me?

You could do a lot:  
-when the car leaves the geofence “work” someone at home gets a signal to put the kettle on or the heating at home goes on  
-get a signal car is almost done with loading  
-car has entered the parking garage etc.  
You have to know the latitude and longitude from a geofence (look at google maps etc) give it a name (home, work etc) and a radius (in meters i believe) and save the geofence. Then you can start with a flow.

</div>

I want to use the geofence feature (e.g. ask me to open the garage) - but only the “When” “alarm triggered” card is working. I tried out all the other cards (e.g. fuel / location changed / geofence entered / drive session completed) but none of them is working (triggering). I just did a simple flow “when” → give me a push msg… i don’t know if it is depending on your car. In the BMW app i can see where my car is etc…

</div>

Only when is not enough, you need also an “and” card: see example.  
When: entering a geofence  
And: the geofence is home

thx. unfortunately already have that in place → but it doesn’t work (i even got the exact gps coordination via bmw car data export)  
all the following steps never worked thats why i made seperate ones with the “message” on the phone… don’t know if the car is too old or some other bmw corresponding error… but i can work with that - was just curios if other ppl have the same problem

Hi,

I think there is a new problem with the app. Data is not updating in Homey since yesterday.  
No problem with the My BMW app.

regards,

Mine has been for 6 days. Tried today to refresh the captcha token. Let’s see what that will do. Maybe the token reached end of its life?

It seems to be fine for me. Please try logging in again with a new captcha and hopefully this will be resolved.

Indeed, new captcha and a restart did the trick.

Just wanted to feedback that after trying unsuccesfully for a few times I now got it to work. Excited to see what type of flows I will be able to create with this. Used with a 2016 BMW i3.

Great app, like the integration!  
Would there also be an option to stop the charging at a percentage?

There seems to be some kind of bug.

I am not retrieving any new values any more. They are all old. What is the solution to this?  
I have tried to restart Homey, restart App, but nothing works. Still just old values.

I have sent you a diag report.

UPDATE: I solved it with a new token based on thread post in dec 2024. Thanks.

</div>

Same here (BMW X3 PHEV). It seems like it only works for a couple of days and then stops. Only getting a new token solves the problem. Is there a permanent solution for this ? Thanks, Idso.

PS: I am trying to open the garagedoor when my car is within the geofence. I am not getting any location information and the app will not store a new location without refreshing the token.
