Connected Apps: How to update on-board list?

Does anyone know how to make the list of installed/selectable apps in the car update to match the list of (actual) installed MINI Connected apps in the phone?

Stumped!!

Open the applications on your phone and then connect it via USB and check again. That's how I got it to recognize mine.

That worked the first time round, but didn't work for me this time.

See MINI's reply in Nav/Tech/Audio section. Unbelievably, IT CANNOT BE DONE!

How stupid is that?

That's incredible. Notice that MINI Connected has a 1.5 star rating in the App Store. It takes special talent to achieve such a low rating.

My only thought is to try to reset everything. Uninstall MINI Connected and quit/terminate all the apps. Install MINI Connected and launch it and all the apps, then reconnect to the car.

Tried that. It didn't work!

You know, Connected was much better in previous iterations. It's getting worse!!
