Is BMW The Company Actually Behind The Audi A4 Driving Experience App?
High end car companies are GREAT at building vehicles that reward us with an enriching driving experience but as you can see from this article, they sure are AWFUL at making software.

Hence debacles like the BMW iDrive interface and this iPhone app from Audi...

From Onamac.com:

"this has to be one of the worst applications I’ve tried for the iPhone thus far.  As a fan of Audi, I’m embarrassed for them. The real-world Audi driving experience is something the company puts painstaking hours into.  The Audi A4 driving experience app… Not so much.  Audi’s motto is “Never follow.”  This time they’ve unfortunately ended up far off course."

Why would BMW be behind it? It is a horrible app. I had it for 10 minutes and then I deleted it.

Anything can happen in our world...just about anything...

The moment you think you've gotten your suspect, there's already someone else behind it...waiting for the results.
LOL x]...that's what keeps our world moving, isn't it?

"they sure are AWFUL at making software."

I don't think Audi made this app.

That's what third-party software developers are for.

Agent 001, are things that slow at the office that this blogpost was even prepared. The last time I checked this was an auto enthusiasts website. Is it even germane to an auto manufacturer or the automotive products it manufactures that a game that uses its mark is even out there? Perhaps a few words on the A4 itself.

Lame article to just start an anti-Audi rant.
