Spotify and iDrive
Hello,
Does anyone else seem to have issues with Spotify on their iPhone and the idrive... When the car loads the app icon, I click it but it takes ages to open and then cuts off, then the app disappears? Very glitchy Sometime to make it work I have to turn off Bluetooth in the car and turn it back on.. Any help? |

Spotify and iDrive
I used to have problems, but now they seem solved.
First I tried with Bluetooth version 1.4 and version 1.6, but ended up with setting version 1.5 on my phone (an Android phone). Before I get into my car, I switch on BT and start the BMW app (not Spotify). I start the car and the connection automatically starts the Spotify app and starts to play (can take a minute or so). Note: on Android Spotify is only supported correctly upto version 8.5.66.1002 after that version Spotify dropped support for BMW iDrive. FYI: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Oth...n/td-p/5009730 Cheers. Last edited by Kjettaren; 03-13-2021 at 05:57 AM.. |

I have both Spotify and Pandora accounts and a Iphone 12 and Google Pixel 4. I can tell you at different times depending on software updates they work and then get do not work. Eventually they work but it is usually a struggle of removing and downloading the apps again. And this happens on my other cars so it is not just BMW. You just have to work through it with patience. I think both platforms and music services are top notch and can not say one works better than the other. I usually end up just stream over BMW's I drive as its simple.

Never thought about it, but on my completely unmodified 2018 F31 Spotify just plays off my Android phone when I start the car. I see album art and can skip to next track etc. Never changed anything on car.

Highly noob comment/question but how are you guys even accessing the Spotify app via the car? I thought support was dropped or something because I just have to connect via usb. Appreciate anyone who can walk me through this even if I have to upgrade.

Of je nu geniet van je favoriete afspeellijst of nieuwe muziek ontdekt, de synergie tussen Spotify en iDrive tilt de rijervaring naar een geheel nieuw niveau. Applaus voor de tech-wizards die dit dynamische duo tot leven hebben gebracht!
