It shows up on the latest update. Is your software up to date?

There's a thread here that addresses your question.
https://g20.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1690882 Your car needs certain options to enable Spotify. I think you must have an in vehicle data connection, independent of your phone. |

My car has the Live Cockpit Pro, and Connected Drive, and Software level 11/2019. I don't have an in vehicle data connection to provide an internet connection. I have not been able to obtain the Spotify app using BMW Apps.
There is a lot of information in the thread I referenced, but what I got from it was that to have Spotify as a Media source in your I Drive system, you must have a connection in the car to stream data. Spotify is available thru Apple Car Play, which uses the data plan from your phone. |

If you're on android, last option is to try Bluetooth. It supports next, back and image art.

I've tried a few suggestions here and I still can't get it to show on my car.
When I use Spotify through Bluetooth I don't get album art and would love to have the App. Not sure what to do. |

I think connected music is a service you can order at any moment. Your dealer should be able to check it for you. There is also a trial.

I just got an email from BMW stating that Connected Drive with Spotify is now available for my vehicle. The email had a download link. Haven't tried it yet. Thought folks should know though.

I have this issue 50% of the time. I've found that if you press "COM" near your dial. Manage mobile devices. Select your device and check the "apps box" it'll work for that Bluetooth session.
I don't bother with it anymore unless it works automatically. I just use the regular Bluetooth connection. |
