iDrive 8 Spotify Issue

On some playlists Spotify will always play the first song in the playlist after 10 seconds and then keep restarting the song. I've tried resetting iDrive by holding down the volume knob and that didnt fix it. Anyone else run into this yet?

I will assume you are running the native app. I have not had any issues so far. Maybe a log out and back in to see if that helps.

This has been happening to me too.

Built in Spotify is very buggy. I think it has to do with the cars data connection as well.

Usually a log out and back in usually fixes any issues but I’ve run into the issue of it not wanting to sign back in and I’ve had to turn off the car and leave it awhile and come back to it before I can sign back in. This has happened multiple times.

I also have a bug where if I skip alot of songs quickly, it would just not skip anymore and I’m stuck listening to whatever the current song is. Also happens frequently.

Like I said very buggy. I prefer it to the CarPlay app though since the audio quality is better.

When it works, it works well. When it’s buggy I often want to never use it again.
