My Question or Issue

When I connect my Spotify/iPhone to my car stereo, I see the cover of the currently playing song.
Once the first song is over, the cover of the first song remains visible until the second song is finished. And when the third song is playing, the cover of the second song is visible on my display.

So, the music cover jumps one song too late.

Does this sound familiar to you? Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks

Hey @__Yeti__, thanks for reaching out to the Community!

Sorry to hear that. Can you try a clean reinstall of the app following these steps? Sometimes this may help with sync issues that may occur when connecting to car stereos. If that doesn’t work, can you let me know if this happens with any song that you listen to, or a specific playlist? 

Let me know how this goes.
