BMW Connected Drive and ios 11.0.2

BMW Connected Drive and ios 11.0.2

Hi, ever since the recent ios 11 upgrade, I have lost the connectivity to the BMW Connected Drive. I would connect by iphone 6 via the usb cable and Spotify would appear in the Media dection as a usable app, but since the upgrade Spotify no longer appears as an App and I am unable to search, shuffle, select playlists etc as normal. I have un- and re-installed Spotify with the newest version but this hasn't solved the issue. Any ideas please?

The problem persists with iOS 11.0.3 and it seems that all apps are affected. I use an iPhone 6s and iPhone 8 and both will not load apps, like Spotify, anymore. Bluetooth conection works and i'm able to play Spotify over the normal bluetooth audio connection but have no direct access to my Spotify library nor the direct search function. Next to this I experience sudden drop in bluetooth connection. Music stops for a moment and is reconnected after a few seconds. The car has not recieved intermediate updates (as far as I know) and I use the latets apps from BMW Connected Drive and Spotify. Was in contact with the BMW dealer in The Netherlands and they are thrying to find out more via BMW NL. Hope they resplve the issue quick.

Any luck?

Got the same issue... 

Yep, since the 11.2.1 update the app suddenly appears again but with the BMW logo on the phone screen now. It seems that apple have resolved the issue.
