Yes, BMW Apps works with all generations of iPhone. I have a 6 now and a 5 before that and both worked flawlessly. BMW Apps does not rely on the video output of the phone to work. The only thing you need that for is if you have a snapin and want to use the iPod-out and video playback functions. I am not certain but I believe the new iPhone 5/5S snapin has a video converter in it to convert the lightning port's digital video to analog to restore this functionality. I do not have that though so YMMV.

My solution to get iPod out back was to get an old iPhone 4S and leave it plugged in to my snapin. It syncs with my computer when I park the car in the garage so it is always up to date with my music.
