My Question or Issue

When using apple carplay (wired) not all albums are visible. I have about 55 albums stored/liked on my phone.

 

How I reproduce this:

Start my car.

connect phone to car using an apple cable.

Carplay shows up.

I go to spotify

I select library -> albums

My albums are only visible up until the letter D. This is about 15 albums. I know there is some kind of limitation with only having lists of 200 but this is not the case right here.

 

If I turn off my car, close spotify on phone and repeat the above steps then sometimes it will actually show all albums. I will scroll down to for instance the letter S. Now if I wait a minute or so all of a sudden the album list refreshes back to the letter D and only the albums up until D are visible again.

 

If needed I will make a video with the issue but I will not post that in public.

I have the same problem, only 10 songs are visible

Car: BMW 320i 2022

iPhone: iPhone XS

OS: 17.7
Spotify: 8.9.76.516

I am also having this problem. Although downloads do not show up in CarPlay, if I go to the phone I can see all of them and if I select a download playlist or album, and start play from the phone CarPlay displays the current track even though it isn’t visible in the Library view. Tired of having to pull over so I can access the playlists using the phone, then heading back into traffic.

 

iPhone SE gen 3, iOS 17.6, Subaru Outback 2022, Spotify 8.9.82.628

Same issue here. This problem is not fixed yet and is the main reason I cancelled Spotify bc I normally only listen in the car and CarPlay is unusable.
