This is the iDrive prototype at its most basic. Uncertain about the version you have? To learn more, consult the table below. So, that's when you're look at BMW iDrive and the 4 series convertible vision, check out our full review for even more details about what it's like to drive this thing.What BMW iDrive system does my vehicle have? In many of today’s BMW vehicles, the majority of secondary vehicle systems are managed by the iDrive computer system. The organization's great, and I don't really mind the lack of a touchscreen because I don't really use that in European cars. Still, I'm gonna have to say that this is the best that BMW's iDrive has ever been. If like me, you carry an Android phone, don't hold your breath for Android Auto.īMW stated repeatedly that it has no plans to support that technology. Though it gets a whole lot better if you have an iPhone and you connect it for Siri iFree, or if you have the optional Apple Car Play upgrade. ![]() So you can put in an address without having to pull over and stop.įinger input is nice, but voice command is actually pretty good. It's really easy to use that, and I especially like that BMW doesn't lock you out of any of this stuff while driving. There's almost no lag between tapping a button or hitting an icon and being brought to that part of the menu.Īnd I do really like how well organized this system is but I will find that occasionally I'll end up sort of like diving through menu after menu looking for a more obscure function.īMW could use a little bit of sort of tidying up there.īut for the most part I really like what we got going on here.Įspecially controller can be used for more than just nudging the cursor around on the screen, you can also use its touch sensitive top surface to write in letters when you want to put in an address so. ![]() Now, you'll notice as I move around the menu it's actually really responsive. So you can show multiple bits of information at the same time. So you don't even have to come back to the home screen, for example, to quickly jump between your media source And your map.Īctually, you don't really need to jump between anything because like all versions of iDrive, of this generation, you can set this thing up with a split screen. Now those are going to correspond to shortcuts on the visible controller. Give you short cuts to the various functions that you can perform things like media navigation.Ĭommunications going to be where you find your hand free calling and such. Now the main screen is a six tile system here. It's almost as though BMW designed them for each other. That's fine because I personally believe that the physical controller is the best way to interact with the iDrive system.

Now, we've seen this system before in the 2018 5 Series and X5.īut here, it's a little bit different for the 4 Series.

This allows you to photograph the scene without the chance of people posing, as they’re much less likely to see you. Telephoto – On the other end of the spectrum are those who prefer to photograph from a distance.You’ll now be getting very close to the people you photograph, making it harder to avoid them noticing you. That might even mean a wide-angle zoom lens. Wide-angle – Then there are those photographers who like to have even more stories in their scene and will look to use even wider lenses.Keep in mind the crop factor for DSLR cameras that have a crop sensor, as it will change the effective focal distance of your 50mm lens. That field of view is also wide enough to give your scene context, and you have a large enough aperture with a prime lens to photograph in low light. That’s because it has a similar field of view to a person’s eye. 50mm – This is many street photographers’ lens of choice.A lens of 135mm means you need to stand quite far away to include the context in your scene. ![]() ![]() ![]() If you have been trying to sleep train your precious bundle for two weeks with no luck, consider checking in with your baby’s paediatrician for advice. ![]() No matter which sleep training technique you decide on, know that the time it takes differs for every caregiver.and every baby!

Sociodemographic factors and food shopping and consumption behaviors were similar across the three groups however, customers recruited at FFL assets were lower income and had a higher prevalence of food insecurity. Data are being used to inform and validate an agent-based model (ABM) to predict food shopping and consumption behaviors. Evaluation measures included annual cohort surveys, accelerometers and GPS devices, store-level audits, and built environment assessments. The 2018-2021 FRESH-Austin study was a natural experiment that utilized a cluster random sampling strategy to recruit three groups of participants (total n = 400): (1) customers at FFL assets, (2) residents that lived within 1.5 miles of an FFL asset, and (3) residents from a comparison community. The purpose of this paper was to present the overall study design and baseline results of the multi-pronged evaluation of a healthy food access (i.e., Fresh for Less (FFL)) initiative in Central Texas. Food insecurity and limited healthy food access are complex public health issues and warrant multi-level evaluations. ![]() ![]() I tried to figure out how to add this code but was not successful.ĭoes someone know how to add the 3 states to the custom SmartApp code? The Smart Lights SmartApp by SmartThings has an option after selecting the button you want to use to pick a button action of pushed, held, or pushed twice, so it should be possible.
