Spotify flakiness?

KapwnieIsland · 11-03-2018, 05:34 AM

Hey team, long time lurker, first time poster. Lover of my Phytonic Blue 30i Xline

Any one have issues with Spotify and Android / iPhone? Are there fixes?

Cheers!

Sounds like a device/app issue not the car

My rental 30i performed flawlessly with Spotify and Carplay. No issues.

Hmmm. I'm on a Samsung s9+ and my wife is on an iPhone 8. The Spotify app sometimes appears, sometimes appears grayed out, some times selectable but does not start and some times works. Very frustrating. Any one else have this issue?

Is there a version of idrive 6 software I should have to address this?

Thanks!

Seems like it's not an uncommon issue: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Android/BMW-Connected-Drive-Android-Issues/td-p/4375625/page/5
