How does the "snapshot" in my vehicle with BMW Operating System 8 work?

With the "snapshot" function, you can use the overhead interior camera in your vehicle with BMW Operating System 8 to have pictures from the interior camera sent to your smartphone using the My BMW App’s remote function if you wish to glance inside the car to check whether bags or other items have been left there, for example. The interior camera is also activated when the Remote Theft Recorder is triggered. 

The camera can also be used by the car’s occupants to take snapshots during the journey, allowing them to capture special moments and share them with friends and family.
