Spotify functionality
Hello CF,
I am annoyed with the center console USB defaulting to "iTunes" library when plugging in my iPhone 6.
Even if I open Spotify manually and click play it stops after a few seconds and then reverts back. After doing this a few times it eventually responds and stays on the Spotify stream.
Is there any better way to get around this? I know Pandora is integrated in but I prefer Spotify and cannot seem to get it to play on the first, second, or third (sometimes) attempts. Finally, it will stay on and work correctly.
Is there an iPhone or car setting I need to toggle? This is only on USB not BT.

I see that it defaults to that. I just don't get why it doesn't accept the first override but will eventually take it.
Also, I was hoping there was a setting I could change somewhere to avoid this. Obviously the quality is not the same on Bluetooth and it doesn't charge.

My c7 does the same thing....I hate it.
My new Denali DRW works fine for spotify or iTunes (whichever I select) but my vette defaults to iTunes after playing spotify for about 7 seconds.
I have not tried the usb behind the screen yet to see if it does the same thing. I will check tomorrow.

I have a similar problem in my C7, I use Spotify via bluetooth. At times it will show that it is connected to the car, the song data and even playing on the screen.... track length is moving, but no sound.... Has anyone experienced this?
The only way to get it to work is to disconnect the phone via the car's screen and then reconnect and it acts like it never happened.
