Android Auto - Playlists Not Up To Date When Selected

[jpzsports18]

For the past month or two, I've been having an issue in which selecting a playlist (such as Release Radar or Discovery Weekly) within Android Auto is not updating and showing the current songs. It is stuck on the previous week. I have to go onto my phone's Spotify app and go into the playlist and select a song for it to then update and play the new songs. Please fix this issue and have the Android Auto app properly play the latest songs in the playlist. I tried clearing cache and the issue persists.

This issue continues to persist. Does anyone have any suggestions??

Also been having this problem for what feels like a month or two, issue still persists. Didn't used to happen.

I've found that when this happens, opening the playlist in Spotify on my phone forces it to refresh in the app, and in AA as well in turn.

Not super helpful when the whole point of AA is to not have to interact with your phone while driving 😑

Same issue here. Any hints/helps?

This issue has been finally fixed for me with a recent update about a week ago.

It looks like I spoke too soon...the issue still persists. One of my playlists updated successfully, but upon further testing, a few other playlists did not update until I opened them on my phone's app.

Please fix this issue to make sure that Android Auto's version of Spotify properly updates the playlists.

This issue continues to occur! Will someone please address this in a software update?
