In the myBMW app, I set up some Favorite destinations and gave them fairly unique names. For example, one of them is called Upper Tennis Courts. Another is called John Smith's House. Once I saved them as Favorites, I expected to be able to get into the car and give a voice command like, "Hey BMW, take me to the Upper Tennis Courts." That never works - it's like it ignores whatever is in my favorite's list and goes online to try to find something that sounds like what I'm saying (like a Tennis store nearby).

I do see my Favorites in the car when I manually pull up my favorites on the display, but for some reason they are not recognized by name with the voice assistant. Does anyone else have this issue? Maybe I'm doing it wrong.

I only have idrive 7 so this is a guess
Could you try saying “drive to”
And then see if it comes up with a list upon which you can say the name or number

As I say just a guess and no idea if that wil work

Like AP says, I’m guessing it’s working out what the right commands are to set a destination in the navigation system. Could also try “set destination” or “navigate to” or….?
