This was an issue since mid / late 2018.

I read then that android Spotify version 8.4.77.779 was the last version that worked fully with BMW of our generation.

So i just got the install file of that version for android, manually installed it on my phone and stick with it, DON'T update it.

Still works great in the M2C..But using direct BT as a single source is easier IMO as often the car calls up both at startup and simultaneously plays different direct BT music and Spotify BT music at the same time overlayed.. WTF!

Well odd time or two it has disappeared I have to remove the phone from the car device list, reconnect and it comes back.

Problem is a lot of people put their phone on auto-update but the many devices we connect to are not updating... if it aint broke....i dont use auto update ever.

Spotify et al dont give a flying f##k about maintaining BMW integration.
