Can I also open the My BMW App with Touch ID or Face ID?

Yes. You can also open the My BMW App using your smartphone's biometric authentication methods such as fingerprint (Touch ID) or face ID. If your smartphone does not support biometric authentication methods or you have deactivated them, you can open the My BMW App with a PIN. To allow or restrict the My BMW App access to your Face ID, select: "Profile" (tab) > "Settings" (gear icon at the top right) > "Device permissions" (in "Permissions"). You will be redirected to the settings menu of your smartphone where you can make the desired settings for your "Face ID".
