Idrive bug or not?

I'm aware of the generally random iphone connection issues being addressed in other threads. Today, I came across a reproducable dissconection and I would like to ask if this is normal or just another bug they are working to fix.

So, when my iphone is connected and working properly, turning on "personal hotspot" on the phone will immediately disconnect the phone 100% of the time. Is this normal?

I am pretty sure yes. When I am in the car I get connected to a DIRECT BMW WiFi network. When I connect to my BlackVue it tells me that it will disconnect the WiFi CarPlay connection.

Turning on a hotspot normally disconnects any other WiFi network to allow your hotspot connection to work.
