I’ve got my 218i gran coupe last month and was wondering if all remote services are fully locked behind a subscription charge and if there is a way to permanently pay for this say lifetime access.
This is what it shows on the app,

My dealer got all of this activated. BMW Adelaide, they were 100% super awesome. As to lifetime, do not know, sorry.

As like mimespes, mine also was done by dealer. Received an email from bmw "Please accept ConnectedDrive Terms and conditions" , a code is sent via email which you enter in the car to also activate the digital key.
I would visit the dealership and they can check your vin# and see what your vehicle supports. GL.

Pretty sure you’ve got to buy the connected booster package through the bmw app to access remote services like locking the car etc, only 12 month duration per purchase mind.
