Spotify, and music connectivity via Android
Super disappointed when I found out that after June, Spotify was no longer supported on Android for idrive 6. I have a backup iPhone 7,so I downloaded Spotify and Amazon music (which is only an iPhone bmw connected app) to see if that would work better. I found that if I connected via Bluetooth, I could have both phones connected. Galaxy set to phone connectivity and iPhone set to apps and audio. It worked great, I streamed through wifi on the car and my saved songs. Unfortunately, I realized that I could not read or respond to any of my text messages, etc because the iPhone was hooked up to the apps and bmw connected. I unpaired the iPhone from Bluetooth, as I prefer being able to control my galaxy via Bluetooth and all the phone functions. I then realized that I could stream all my music through apps via USB cable on the iPhone, and all my problems were solved. I get to use all my phone functions, and I also get clear sound and the apps through the USB connection. Just thought I'd share. Sorry for the run on sentences.

Or you can just downgrade spotify...
Had the same issue, remove the "upgraded" Spotify version e.g. 8.5.68.904 from your Android device and open page: https://spotify.en.uptodown.com/android/versions Then install Spotify version 8.5.66.1002, this fixed it for me. https://spotify.en.uptodown.com/andr...wnload/2292403 Cheers. PS Block the auto upgrade in Google App Store on your Android device. |

It works, but Spotify automatically updates, even if I turn auto update off and I have to Uninstall etc. I'll give it a try again though, thank you! |

Follow the steps mentioned below to disable specific apps from updating themselves. Open Google Play Store App on your device. Tap on Menu option on the top left corner of the screen. Tap on My Apps and Games. Under Installed Tab, select the app you wish to change the auto-update option. Click on More option on the top right corner of the App Home Screen. Uncheck the Auto-update option on the prompt. On successful completion of the above steps, auto-updates for specific apps will be disabled. Works for me... |

No doubt this will be a dumb question, but how does downgrading Spotify address the issue of the Spotify app showing/not showing in ID 6?

Spotify disabled support for a a4a (apps for automotives for Androids) around July or August update so you have to use an older version to connect the Spotify bmw app now

But be sure to check your phone's instruction manual before you try top 100 klingeltöne kostenlos. You'll need to know what keypress sequences to use and how to load the song.
Alternatively, you can use an audio editor such as Audacity to convert your own music into ringtone format, then load it into a ringtone maker to program it. Once you've done that, you can save the ringtone to your device and assign it as your ringtone or text message ringtone. Last edited by Edanaan; 04-27-2023 at 09:35 PM.. |
