I uploaded the MINI Link app a while back and have been using it periodically.. mostly I've found it to be useful if trying to get some ideas about some hotspots (especially twisties), cheap gas locations periodically as encountered by other motorists, or perhaps some ideas for places to go. However, as far as I can tell, it's utterly useless when trying to have some fun from time to time and "Send Waves" to other motorists. I have mine set to wave automatically. I have yet to receive one single wave from a motorist and have no idea if the feature even works. When "waving" manually, it clearly sends one, but I have no idea if they are actually even received either.

So, here's the question: have any of you ever received a "wave" from a fellow motorist with this app? Has anyone used it in "Rally Mode" (does it work)? Tell your tale! If you have this application and haven't done so already, set yours to auto wave. Let's do some digital waving too!

 

I received an wave once, I drove by the MINI dealership.

 

You mean you can send a wave via the iPhone? How does that work?

 

I've had it installed for about a month now. No waves yet. I've waved many times. There was a recent update and now there are only 2 MINIs in my general area where there used to be around 15. I guess most haven't applied the update yet. It's not of much use too me but could be if more people would use it.
