Completely different technologies at play here. Android stuff is using Miracast. Apple does their own thing. Technically, CarPlay is their own form of screencasting - the car's display behaves like a "second display" to iOS (when you take a screenshot on the phone, you'll also get a screenshot of the CarPlay screen).

You could also code the options into the car using a laptop + ESYS + appropriate coding cable, you wouldn't need an iPhone/iPad for that. Bimmercode is just an alternative (easier to use) than ESYS.

I'm an IT guy by trade and tech nerd by choice.
I like HPDEs, parts of US Hwy 129, NC 28, and the Cherohala Skyway.
I'm also a fan of aural pleasure.
