F60 Mini Connected App - inaccurate and kind of useless?

Eco Pro is a BMW drive mode. My 535i had it. I used the BMW version of this app for a while and the Mini app is obviously just a re-branded port. They need to go through it and make it more brand specific. Still waiting for the cover to come off my 2019 SE!

I totally agree, someone needs to edit the app to make it for the Mini.
Also they need to have it give you history of the last 20 trips so you can see what you did, not only the last trip and if you forget to look its gone!
The app needs to be fixed to match what the car says. Now the car says something in mpg and the app can be a couple of mpg off, why?
Electrical consumption is correct if in electric mode only, but when you start the engine then it goes up as if you're making great electric range but you're not. Doesn't make sense that you use the engine and you end up with 12.9 miles per kwh. per kwh should not include the engine.
What is recuperation, can someone explain the reason behind the numbers, mine says 31.1 miles per kwh on the last trip. Does that need to be changed to miles? Do I take 31.1 miles per kwh and divide it by 12.9 miles per kwh and does that mean I was able to drive 2.41 more miles from regen?

Sounds like it hasn’t gotten much better! Lol. I have it in my ‘12 Countryman and it is just garbage! It doesn’t do anything that I can’t do with my iPhone.... dash command is more useful. At least with that I can see engine temp! Lol. It’s gimmicky and pretty much pointless. And all of the additional apps it can link to.... I can do that with just my phone, both faster and easier. I just don’t get it..... the navigation works really well for me, but connected is just downright frustrating.
I wish there was a way to update it to Apple car play
