It makes a statement about BMW's thinking/expertise with software for them to go from 9.2.1 to 10.0 for a minor bug fix. I thought the comment on the version was just wrong but the apps seems the same as it was.

Clearly, not a big deal but I'm a bit worked up about the buggy mess that the new iDrive is.
An update to the app will have nothing to do with an idrive firmware update. If your idrive is buggy you should take it to the dealer. I think firmware update is one of their first troubleshoots.
