4/5Seems very complete
This app looks like there is A LOT of information here, but the F3X cars after 2015 are not represented. I would venture to bet they are all the same but it would be nice to see. I will update this if I find any missing information with this discrepancy

1/5Market
Which market does the Middle East fall under? The 4 listed options are very limited. Also, entering the 7 digit VIN # returns an “ Invalid VIN” error!

5/5Like RealOEM but iPhone-ified
I feel moved and compelled by some holy auto tech spirit within me to offer an HONEST-TO-GOD UNPAID REVIEW AND SUGGESTION (not a promotion because I’m not, like, saying this is essential and you must buy it or your life will be incomplete also o paid the guy for the app, they didn’t pay me, so maybe this intro is completely unnecessary…) For pretty much forever I’ve wanted a realOEM iPhone app, but I don’t code and don’t know anyone who does. Today, like a minute ago, I searched the App Store for “realOEM” and li and behold, someone with some initiative finally did it. “Some magnificent b*st*rd finally did it…” (it’s a movie quote, folks, RELAX) So, I coughed up $4 and in return got an app which does exactly what it says on the label - ETK diagrams and comically optimistic prices - just like RealOEM! Maybe it’s just me, but for me? Worth the 4 bux just to not have to use the RealOEM interface on my phone screen. RealOEM is still the 🐐 if you’re on your desktop, but if you are like me and are easily frustrated by poor (or nonexistent!) mobile UI design, get this app and save the stress for stuff that matters 👍✌️ Only suggestion - add part availability, or at least a flag if part is ENDED. Then it will be perfect 👍

2/5Almost there.
This app has worked pretty well for a few weeks, but in the past two months or so my app has begun crashing whenever trying to find a diagram based on part#. Continues to work completely fine on android (which is free btw) but this functionality is broken on my iPhone. I’ve deleted and reinstalled the app, cleared cache, and even completely wiped my phone & reinstalled everything, when that didn’t work my last bet was a different iOS, and still no solution.

Most of the new BMW cars (from 2020) are reusing the last 7 digits of the VIN number, so it is not unique anymore.
