Hello all, sorry to bother everyone with a bunch of noob questions but I appreciate your time if you all would not mind.

I just purchased a 2014 X1 and it's my first BMW so I am a bit lost on how to do everything after a lifetime of driving VW's nothing seems to be the same.

I was hoping someone could point me to a very newbie friendly way to update my navigation as it appears to be a late 2013 version of maps and I've found myself driving through fields according to it more than I'd prefer. I assume there are links to "acquire" them but most seem to be "NEXT" and I think from my research I want "premium" but then when I get them I assume I can just load them but I see reference to FSC code which I am struggling to understand.

Also, I see the option for BMW apps on my unit but there is nothing there and it just says it wants to connect so I assume that is a service I have to pay for but am struggling to find out what that offers and how much that costs etc. With that, I tried to install the BWM app on my android phone and when I put in the last part of my VIN per instructions it says my car can't be registered assume this is related?

I am able to stream Bluetooth Audio but it seems like I have to toggle the radio on and off from media a time or two before it will work and it seems very temperamental with Spotify and google play music sometimes letting me skip tracks with steering controls only sometimes and seems to like to crash both apps if i ask too much of it. I can see the track and artist but no album art like I've seen in others youtube clips so I don't know if I am doing something wrong? I am using a Google Pixel 2 with stock everything if that helps but it would be nice to not have to keep grabbing my phone while driving to relaunch the music app etc.

I am sure I have more questions but that's where I will start for now I appreciate any help you all can provide me!
