I have the HK sound system, so I am not an audiophile with regards to my X5. I don't see a difference between using this method versus streaming from the phone through Apple Music.
polychromatic I assume you mean on Spotify? Nope. I have the Hulu, Showtime, Spotify Premium bundle...I am not sure, but I think you need Spotify premium for it, which doesn't have ads. |

It is using LTE just like your phone does.

So after use only a few times over the last 36 hours, I've noticed either a bug or bugs right away. Once in the car, it continues playing automatically around where it left off outside the car; that's nice. But I've now already had multiple times where then it suddenly interrupts a minute or so later and starts playing something entirely random, not even related to anything I would ever listen to. I also now had it show one song and play another over and over non-stop, even when changing to the next song (which then displayed as currently playing but wasn't) — there is something really weird about seeing Led Zeppelin and AC/DC on the display and hearing an upbeat ambient instrumental, over and over.
I am on 11/2019.40. Looking forwards to fixes. I guess since this is an app, the updates might come quicker.

I'll let you in on a secret...apply to your local community college (free) and get accepted and a nice .edu email address. Enjoy a nice discount on Amazon, Hulu/Showtime/Spotify Premium, and others. I've dedicated myself to be a student for life...never know when you might "audit" a class!

I've always had to quit the app on my phone and then open it again, not sure what the fix is for the idrive. |

Didn’t work for me but I’m on 07/2019 version of iDrive. Separate issue but no clue how to upgrade iDrive to the latest - does this require a trip to the dealer?
On CarPlay I use Spotify but don’t normally stream - I have most of my Spotify music downloaded to my phone in high quality files. Guessing that won’t work here. |

My IDrive Spotify App version is currently 3.6.9, by the way (Option button on any song).

We have a family Spotify account. I'm having issues with having 2 accounts. I want my wife's key to linked to her Spotify account and my key linked to mine. Has anyone been successful in linking 2 accounts?

Hm, the US press release just posted seems to indicate that account/profile should be supported. At least we know the intent is there. Sounds like you need to use the manual login approach to add second account.

Ok I figured out this evening an issue with Spotify. I uncovered it when I did a remote start from the restaurant. When I got in the X5 Spotify was giving me a QR code as it didn't recognize the account. When I drove home I decided to reboot the iDrive and my Spotify account was there and functioning. That explains what happened this morning as well via a remote start.

Go to your Apps, hit Options and Update. Once finished go to Media and it should be there.

I have tried that multiple times and still nothing. Reset iDrive, went to apps, options, update. I go to media and still nothing. I can access Spotify through CarPlay so it’s not the biggest deal, more frustrating and annoying than anything.
