BMW Connected Drive and Album Covers

[Pampelmuse]

I have a new BMW and use Spotify in it. It plays the music so far. But it shows only the cover of the first album. It remains on the display of the car after ending the first song and starting anoither song.

What's going wrong?

Thx.

I have the same problem since day-1 (I bought the BMW a year ago). 

I have tested Spotify on a Galaxy S4 Android 4.4 , and am now using a iPhone 6 Plus (iOS8.3) . I play music over Bluetooth, have the connected Drive in the car. The covers and song information are never updated.

With some other music apps (Google music or the iOS player), there is no problem at all with the covers and titles.

Thanks.

I have many problems occuring randomly when i try to use Spotify on my Ipad Air 2 in the BMW car in offline mode.

*After some time Album Art and track names are no longer updated
* After some time some of the HMI buttons get greyed out

I was able to solve all these issues by temporarily enabling WLAN hotspot on my mobile phone, then spotif on the ipad will correct itself.
Of course that's no permanent solution to fiddle with the mobile phone while driving, it must be some sort of bug of spotify that will hopefully get fixed to have proper offline usability in the car.
