Can you show us? You mean in the iDrive as part of Apps, and not CarPlay?

No it is not CarPlay but a complete integration using the car own 4G connection for the streaming

7/2019.39 - it appeared yesterday after app and services update. It is part of connected music app, I think.

Understand that, outside of North America, BMW has been offering third-party apps like Spotify as an iDrive-integrated paid subscription. Instead of paying directly to Spotify and using your phone, you pay BMW and use iDrive Spotify.

Nothing to do with CarPlay or BMW Apps.

Not correct, you there is BMW app/service called connected music (
), for which you need to pay to BMW and until recently it supported Napster and Deezer only. Since few days Spotify is also supported. In all of the cases you need a paid subscription from the content provider.

Other than BMW App is not BMW Apps, we are saying the same thing.
