I gave up trying the QR code and logged in today using all uppers for the email address and combo for the password and that worked fine. Question - does anyone know if you can pause a song while in the Spotify app through iDrive? I get a screen showing the individual song with a pause button when I use Spotify through CarPlay, but not when using iDrive.

Would you clarify what you mean by "combo" for your password?

So my use of special characters might be a problem?

Only after changing my email - which was entered in an odd way - and my password could I activate the Spotify account from the Media menu.

I had not noticed that Spotify was using the longhand version of one of my vendor IDs so I simplified a typical e-address. The password that cleared BMW's manual login did not have any special characters, just letters and numbers. The QR code never worked after trying at least 7 such codes.

Hey guys,
My G05 2019 X5 is on the 7/2019 update. Whenever I search for an update under remote software upgrade it says no upgrade has been found. I’ve tried in multiple locations, with the phone plugged and unplugged, and on multiple days. Is there any way I can force the 11/2019 update to get this to work? Thanks. |

So - OTA update to 11/2019.70 today, went through the apps update, no Spotify in Media. Does this work with Android phones? Saw something about Spotify disabling the app function for BMW?

Connected Music (ie just Spotify for now) is independent of your phone, so it doesn't matter if you have Android, iOS, StarTAC, or nothing. It uses car's connectivity to stream audio, not your phone's. Give it a couple of days for the Spotify app to become available, it seems to need a little time to be provisioned. Maybe reboot iDrive a few times in that period for good measure as well. It should appear in the Media menu eventually ... and then the fun connecting it to your Spotify account can begin ...
