BMW snap in adapter compatiabilty

Hi All,

I recently got a 2014 320 XI and would like to be able to pull my music up and control it on in the car. I know it isnt possible with just a usb cord. does anyone know if the BMW SNAP-IN ADAPTER FOR APPLE WITH LIGHTNING CONNECTOR would allow for this? the description makes it hard to tell. here is a link to the product i am asking about https://www.shopbmwusa.com/PRODUCT/6...NING-CONNECTOR

Thanks for your help and im sorry if this is a common question, i am new

Yes it is. There is no reason to use the snap in adapter.

works fine for me with both an iPhone 8 and an older iPod Nano.

You have to use a good cord for it to work, make sure it's a true apple cord and it should work fine
