So I have a 2014 BMW X5.
A iPhone 6 Plus.
A month ago I plugged in my iPhone via the USB cable in my dock and I was happy to see full Spotify intergraton on my iDrive.
Then a few weeks ago after maybe the last update on 12.12.14 or a Carrier Update on my iPhone or some other reason I lost the album art. Everything else works perfictly but it does not display the art.
I've tried Pandora and Amazon Music, both display the Art.
Anyone having this issue??
My app version is 2.2.0.2464
Thanks

I also have a problem when selecting a new track. It kicks the phone of the USB system. Only in SPOTIFY!!!! I don't drive cars long, so by the time this issue is fixed, It will be too late. This has now become an OCD thing with me. I al looking at Beats or Rhapsody?Pandora instead. Any suggestions? Its so sad that we get ignored with this problem for the last 5 months.....!!!!
I would like to know when Spotify will resolve this issue with the BMW Spotify connected will not display album artwork on the Idrive screen. Pandora works, even the new Iheartradio works and thats free! I am a paid subscriber on Spotify. If this issue is not resolved I mught have to cancel my subscription.
Thank You
the last update still didn't resolve the issue... What do we pay you for?
I have the same problem here. Spotify for BMW Connected Drive stopped working this week. The app has always been a bit of a 'personality' but now it just crashes and gives an error string on the phone screen.
Hi !
I dont know if it old news but here is what i find:

July of 2016 and have same issue on a 2012 E90, Album Art stuck in the first song.
Latest Spotify version on a iPhone 6s, latest available iDrive update on BMW webpage.
(Deezer works fine, thinking about change to Apple Music)
Same here. 2014 428i, installed the latest BMW update. Connecting iPhone 6s with ios 10 via bluetooth.
Pandora, Spotify and Amazon Music DOESN'T update album art after the first song. When I change the app, again, first one goes through then it gets stuck.
Only Apple Music works, but I hate the iTunes and not wanting to switch to Apple Music...
I'm curious how Apple got it working and others not...
Is it something that Spotify app can fix?
