Bimmerlink vs Bimmercode?

[dragonhunter241]

What’s the difference between the 2 and what can do or what’s the best thing to do with each app on your Supra?

man, can't you just google it? and then search in the forum?
https://www.bimmerlink.app/
https://bimmercode.app/
Scroll down to see screenshots in the websites..

in short,
Bimmer Link let's say is for OBD diagnostics. on-the-fly changes.
Bimmer Code, is for coding certain things. Supra is limited to like 10 variables that's frequently used by forum members. Has a lot more expert settings, highly doubtful you'll venture into those..

If you're procrastinating on buying one, get the Code.

I was wondering the same thing. I only wanted to increase the brightness of the screen and turnoff the ASD. All the posts I saw used Bimmercode to do both of those things so that's what I bought. Worked great with only one unintended consequence. It wiped out my assigned radio channels.

Nice to see another member from Jax around here.

Another difference… BimmerLink is now compatible with CarPlay.

And they want more money. Ugh.

Absolutely ridiculous that software engineers don't work for free.

Agreed.. especially when they add shit that should've been there from day one when we paid for the software to begin with.

What is it that you do for work that you're willing to give away for free, because you did something similar once?

I'm a software engineer, that shit takes time. The functionality is clearly different and took time to design, engineer, test, and release.

It "should have been there from day one" is the most entitled bullshit I've ever fucking heard. No one owe you anything, stop acting like it.

updated every 10 secs? That’s basically useless.

While I understand where you are coming, and there was at least some facetious to my comment, in my line of work, 90% of what I do is literally unpaid and reliant upon my good will.

That’s odd about the 10 sec thing. When I use maps in CarPlay it seems to be real time.

Then, honestly, stop doing it.

Unfortunately, it doesn't work that way.
