Enhanced Bluetooth and OFFICE

I'm pretty sure I have enhanced bluetooth -- my iphone streams through the sound system with no prompting at all, I get near the car and the music starts playing thru the car audio system even if my iphone is doing something else, or nothing.
It took me a month to find the little Playlists feature on the Idrive, and that's pretty amazing. The genius at the dealer couldn't find it, so I wonder what else I'm missing
I figure I should have Office if I have extended bluetooth, but I can't find that. Any suggestions? Does it have to be coded to make it appear. Anyone know?
This is a 2017 230i

It sounds like you have basic Bluetooth streaming but not Enhanced Bluetooth. A quick way to know is if you get album art or not when streaming wirelessly. Your not missing much from Office except for the ability to have text messages displayed in the car. Full office functionality can be coded into the car and has been referenced many times in the diy coding sections. Hope this helps.
