So we also have a 2019 X7 with iDrive 7 and in that, when I push the "Maps" button on the center console, it takes directly to Apple Maps in Car play. When we push "Media" in the center console, it takes you directly to Now Playing in CarPlay (unless there is a different active source like FM Radio, etc...).

Well, with my new M850, pressing Maps in the center console will always only take me to BMW Navigation screen. If there is a setting for this somewhere, I'd love to know about it.

Any thoughts?

There arw two ways to connect your iphone to your BMW.
1, BMW IDrive
2, Apple Carplay

You can swith them back and forth whenever you want
under the related menu in the car.
If your telephone connected via BMW Idrive, Map button linked to BMW map, if your telephone connected via carplay, Map button linked to Carplay map.


I hope it hepls.
