Anyone with an ICE car try this yet?

I saw the section below in the myBMW app today after it received an update. I was wondering if anyone with an ICE car has tried, or is trying this. I have an i5, so can't use it but am curious to see how it works and what types of things it reports.

Please share if you try it out. I doubt it will convince an ICE owner to switch to a BEV, but who knows?! Thanks!

Just marketing. All manufacturers are seeing sales of EVs decline. I only use the app when necessary,such as sending a destination to Nav.

This is a great marketing tool on their end. Most don't realize that waking up every day with a "full tank" is more than enough for almost every scenario as long as you charge nightly.

I use the app quite often for remote start, sending directions or checking cameras.

The "trip analyzer" is nicely done and shows a bunch of cool metrics in a very cohesive and
easily accessible way. Purely from data aggregation and reporting stand point, I think its a cool, nifty tool and it could be great for an end user who actually seeks that kinda info (not me).
