Hi,

I have an iPod Touch, running iOS v9.3.5 (13G36), that I have had for some time; I have an extensive music collection on it and used on my F30.

I have tried connecting my iPod to the USB port by the cup holders as well as through the USB-C port in the console (with an adaptor), but my M340 keeps saying it needs to have the Connected Drive App on it. Well, when I go to the Apple Store and try to download this App, I get "BMW Connected is not compatible with this iPod." I have even Bluetooth paired the car and iPod; the pairing works fine, but when I try to have the car use the iPod, there is nothing that plays.

Is there someway to "sideload" the Connected drive App on the iPod? Or is some work around to use the iPod with my extensive music collection in my M340? Do I have activate Apple Car Play -- and will it work for iPod?

Appreciate any assistance?

Thank you very much!
