How to Use Visual Submenus in Latest BMW iDrive Systems

The new iDrive Touch system now supports even more voice commands than before. However, remembering all of them might be a bit tricky. In this regard, BMW designed a submenu that pops-up on your display, every time you need it.

Depending on the menu you're in, when you press the Speech button on the steering wheel, the iDrive system will show you a list of the most used Voice Commands, for you to pick from.

However, you're not restricted to using only commands for the menu you're currently into. For example, even though you're in the Navigation menu, if you press the Speech button and say "Call John Smith" the iDrive system will perform the action you required.

The same goes for any other combination of menus and Voice Commands. For more info, check the video below.
