Description

BimmerLink is the direct link to your BMW or MINI. Using one of the supported OBD adapters you can read trouble codes or display sensor values in realtime, check the current state of the DPF in your car or register a new battery after replacement. BimmerLink even allows you to remotely control the exhaust flap or mute the Active Sound Design in your car.

READ AND CLEAR TROUBLE CODES
Diagnose your car as would otherwise be possible only by your Service Partner. In contrast to generic OBD apps that read emission related errors only, BimmerLink allows you to read and clear trouble codes from ALL control units in your car.

DISPLAY REALTIME SENSOR VALUES
BimmerLink provides a big selection of values like oil temperature or boost pressure. Keep an eye on all the important parameters of your car with a personalized dashboard.

EXHAUST FLAP REMOTE CONTROL*
Take control over the exhaust flap in your car and decide yourself, whether it should be closed or open.

ACTIVE SOUND DESIGN**
If you do not like the artificial engine sound generated in your car, just mute the Active Sound Design with BimmerLink.

SOUND TUNING***
The “Sound Tuning” option allows you to disable the “exhaust burble“ in cars equipped with the S55 engine (M2 Competition, M3, M4).

DPF REGENERATION****
BimmerLink allows you to check the current state of the diesel particulate filter in your car. Find out when the last regeneration took place or how much ash has accumulated in the filter and start a regeneration with the touch of a button.

BATTERY REGISTRATION
If you want to replace the battery in your car, this has to be registered in the engine control unit and BimmerLink allows you to do this yourself now.

PARKING BRAKE SERVICE MODE
BimmerLink allows you to activate the service mode for the electromechanical parking brake.

SERVICE RESET
Reset the service display in your car after carrying out maintenance work like a brake pad replacement or an engine oil change.

RESET SHORT CIRCUIT LOCK
Reset the short circuit lock for lamp outputs.

REQUIRED ACCESSORIES
To use the app one of the supported Bluetooth or WiFi OBD adapters or cables is required. For more information please visit https://bimmerlink.app.

Comments on BimmerLink for BMW and MINI for Android

★★★★★ JJTravelGuide Dot com · Dec 20, 2025

Exceptional app, along with their companion app (BimmerCode - for making BMW firmware/software changes). BimmerLink is great for monitoring vehicle sensors and systems in real time. It also has the ability to view and delete component level faults. These faults can show issues that the vehicle has recorded, but that would not normally trigger a checked engine light or be seen with a normal obd2 scanner. Extremely helpful, well-designed, easy to use... A must-have!

★★★★☆ Ricky Mad · Mar 20, 2026

Great value for money and a must-have to all BMW owners.

★★★★☆ Mirwaise Aurah · Oct 30, 2025

This is a great product. I've been using it a lot. There is an error with the sensor units for gearbox temperature. It incorrectly shows the temperature unit in Celsius (C). It needs to be in Fahrenheit (F); the main transmission oil temperature is correctly showing in Fahrenheit (F) Please fix this unit error.

★★★★★ DeltaDS · May 15, 2026

Great app. Expensive, but you buy it once and use it forever. Saved me a lot of headache to have a reasonable code reader, and the ability to manually actuate my exhaust flap is pretty handy!

★★☆☆☆ Coach Samm · Mar 16, 2026

The app worked great for the first 3 weeks. Now the app crashes every time I open it. I can't even open it offline. It tells me there is a bug in the app and to try updating it when the developer fixes the bug. Also, on the website, Bimmerlink shows many features that are not included anymore. Bimmerlink should remove all the features shown that are no longer included in the app. Very disappointed. Bimmercode however works flawless

★☆☆☆☆ Modestas Balandis · May 5, 2026

doesn't work with my obd device, refused a refund even when it was submitted 1 minute after purchase

★☆☆☆☆ Brian · Mar 30, 2026

When meaning to purchase bimmercode I accidentally purchased interlink . Instantly realizing my mistake, within seconds I uninstalled the app and immediately submitted for a refund through Google play and purchased bimmercode instead... refund was denied... absolutely ridiculous considering both are made by same company. Disputed with my credit card.

★☆☆☆☆ Mike Dutchek · Mar 31, 2026

I got locked out of the account I bought app with every other paid app I had lost access too changed it, so I could log in with my other account but not these guys nope they expect you to pay again but that's fine it's an obsolete program buy protocols app these guys sell 2 apps and protocols does it in 1 and does way more. I bought this before protocols came out I don't use the apps I got off them anyway since protocols, but I did pay for them but I sure ain't again but protocols
