Remote control parking?

     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
Everytime I back up, I see the option "parking with my bmw app". I click it, and it says get out of vehicle and use bmw app to park the car. Anyone gotten this to work? I can raise and lower the suspension via the app, but that's all I see.

Got it to work several months back on my wife's Iphone (Android doesn't seem to support it yet) on my 2023 40i, although I haven't tried it since. Had a couple of instances where the conventional parking assistant ran me into the curb when parallel parking, so haven't been brave enough to try remote parking since!

From my experience, it seems to be better at perpendicular parking than at parallel parking. It does a pretty decent job overall but there were a couple of instances where it bumped the curb when trying to parallel park. I think as with most driving aids, it not 100% and the onus is on the driver to monitor and take over as needed and you should be ok if you do that. I use the maneuver assistant pretty regularly though to park in my garage, so all's not bad!

Works like a charm and is an impressive view to see a car of this size auto park. Though if you don’t like to draw attention, don’t use this feature in public 😆

I guess the remote parking isn't available for pre-LCI models?
