iPhone Mini Connected Software Update
I saw today there was an update to the Mini Connected app.
What's New in Version 2.1.0
New Features:
- Facebook: Single-Sign-On is now supported (new login required once).
- Twitter / Facebook: Status messages can be read out (text to speech).
Several improvements and bug fixes. Improved stability and performance.

Glad to see they are improving the app, although I still can't use some of apps without the phone cradle (lame). I wonder if they can add the text reading to the GPS so it can say the street names, although that might be a different program altogether.

Thanks for the update. I am anxious to get those apps to work on the new Countryman we picked up on Friday night.

Just tried an iPhone (3GS) with the Y cable and mini-connected plus the app installed.
I'm a bit confused by what some of the features are supposed to provide. I tried doing the Google search for location thru the Nav screen controller...but nothing seemed to happen. The Google Send To option is confusing to me...what is it sending and where is it sending it?
From the main Nav screen, under Mini Connected, there is something about "Plugin" activation. I can activate it...but the description text says something about the logical control of the external device is now activated. Since Mr. Spock is not sitting beside me, I'm stumped?!

The Google send to car is a feature where you can find a location on google maps on the internet, and in the upper right corner you see a little envelope button. click that, choose 'car', and then put in your mini connected username. It will send the address to your car, where you receive it in the 'google send to car' option in mini connected. You can then have the Nav direct you there.
Plugin displays the iphones or ipods itunes interface on your screen as it's seen on your device. I'm not sure about the message you are seeing

My wife as a I phone 4, it works good with the hands free voice comand. We have a 2012 with Nav and Mini connected. If I say "phonebook" then the name (last name then the first) it dials the number. But when i use my I phone 3, it will not go past the first step. When I say the name (last name first ect) the voice says "building phone book for voice camande" My phone book dose show up on the screen, and I can scroll and select the name and number and make the call that way.
Any one have this problem?

Woohoo anther update, and new features!
Driving Excitement:
The functions Condition Check, Force Meter and Digital Sport Instruments open up unique opportunities to let you get more enjoyment out of driving your MINI.
MINIMALISM Analyser and Mission Control:
Once again both functions are available with Apple iOS5 devices and the additional special version "Bluetooth mobile preparation with USB Audio Interface" (SA6NE) through an iPhone connection via USB/AUX-In –or– optional Snap-In adapter.
Mode switcher:
Predefined function profiles for the vehicle can be activated via the new mode selection in the iPhone app. The "Excitement Mode" focus is very much centred on the driver and his/her MINI, in order to enable the driver to experience the best possible go-kart feeling. In addition the active audio function can also be selected. In this mode all the other functions are deactivated.
It goes without saying that they are however still available in the usual way via the "MINIMALISM / Infotainment Mode".

Just curious here - - - I've switched over to the cable. Does anyone else have a problem with Plug In? It operates as advertised, but it also freezes the system. To get out of Plug In, I have to un-connect the iPod and go back to the home button. I finally got tired of it and just use the standard interface.
P.S. - I've done all the updates to both Connect and IOS.

Hopefully a number of people report this on the app comments or through whatever other lines we have back to the Connected developers.
