Store ratings include star-only taps from in-app prompts, which skew high. The peak and recent figures come only from people who wrote a review, which skews low. Compare each against itself: the drop is the signal, and a big gap between the two usually means heavy rating prompting is masking unhappy users.

Junk

★ · v4.4 · Oct 9, 2026

Connection issue

Mala conexión

★ · v4.4 · Sep 28, 2026

Se desconecta no dura un minuto

Limited coding

★ · v4.4 · Sep 26, 2026

App does very little

Awful with no help!

★ · v4.4 · Sep 13, 2026

I purchased this to turn off the start/stop on my 2021 X5. The setup was easy and after I made the change the left angel eye turned extremely dim. The other lights were fine. Unfortunately the start/stop feature is still active and support says that feature cannot be changed (then why have it available for my model?). Support also said that there must be some other physical issue with my angel eye. Really??!! There is supposed to be an option to change the brightness for the angel eyes, but that’s in expert mode only. Support won’t help with expert mode so I’m SOL with the original change and support thinks their software isn’t an issue, when there are tons of blogs on my exact issue. What’s the point in buying the software if they refuse to help? Terrible support and the app is useless for many current models.

Not worth it

★★ · v4.4 · Aug 23, 2026

Not worth it for G20 LCI. Maybe it has more functionality with other years/models.

No support for 2026 X3

★ · v4.4 · Aug 18, 2026

Please add support for the G45 X3.

These developers will take your money and give you nothing.

★ · v4.4 · Aug 12, 2026

Not to be trusted.

Not suitable for a 24/25/26 X5

★ · v4.4 · Aug 3, 2026

There is almost no functionality for the post 23 G05 LCI. Three total options. I would have thought they would have three years afterwards, but disappointed that no advances.

Does not work on 2007 BMW 525i

★ · v4.4 · Jul 20, 2026

I attempted to turn off warning message that left front parking lamp malfunctioned. Everything I tried did not turn off this warning.

Na

★ · v4.4 · Jul 19, 2026

Followed instructions for 5+ changes and all showed code successfulnone worked

Can’t connect

★ · v4.4 · Jul 3, 2026

I can’t connect

Desktop version design

★ · v4.4 · Jun 17, 2026

If you street park, you’re going to need a hotspot plan to use the tool. Desktop app requires app update and network or it won’t load. Love that.

Can’t use with IPHONE

★ · v4.4 · May 22, 2026

My friend was able to link to his Samsung in 20 sec- but I waseted 1/2 day with apple support- don’t use with iPhone

Less features than advertised

★★ · v4.4 · May 19, 2026

Not sure why but my app doesn’t I have all the options as described on all videos

BM3 WiFi Adapter

★ · v4.4 · May 4, 2026

It will not connect to the BM3 wifi adapter and I don’t know why. The Bootmod3 app connects just fine.

Too many features fail to load to ecu

★★ · v4.4 · Apr 30, 2026

As the name suggests, too many default features shown don’t actually work and fail to load. Frustrating

Fix this app

★ · v4.3 · Apr 26, 2026

This apps used to be good now it absolutely sucks. Please rework on this app

Won’t link

★ · v4.3 · Apr 25, 2026

Spent 50$ and won’t link.

Poor connection

★ · v4.3 · Apr 23, 2026

Says works with Thor connector but have sat here for an hour and it still won’t connect.

Awful service

★ · v4.3 · Apr 21, 2026

Company absolutely sucks, unable to help me, I got BimmerCode for the wrong device and I’m unable to do it

Baloney

★ · v4.3 · Apr 20, 2026

50 bucks is crazy just for a few options

Connection error

★ · v4.3 · Apr 20, 2026

No matter how many times I try to connect or how many steps I take it doesn’t do anything

Not fully compatible with G05

★★ · v4.3 · Apr 8, 2026

Very limited edition, not worthy the price!

Useless

★ · v4.3 · Apr 7, 2026

Spent hours trying to connect to my bmw x7 with no luck. You would think this would’ve fixed, commented on, or someone would have some type of info. The error is unclear, tried all combinations of connection variants. Disappointing.

The BIG let down

★ · v4.3 · Mar 28, 2026

I’ve been trying to get this app to work properly for nearly an hour (iOS)! I followed instruction to the letter and I paid for the full version; this is very frustrating!

The opportunity

What would it take to build a viable competitor, what would it cost to run every month, and a prompt to get started. Generated from the reviews on file; one LLM call per brief. Set ANTHROPIC_API_KEY for a real brief; the stub only fills in a template.
