Hi All!
I've got a MY19 V90 but didn't get the CarPlay option as it was £300 where most other manufacturers it comes as standard.

I connect my phone using bluetooth and use the Spotify app a lot. I've found that although connected to the phone the Spotify app is doing a real time stream of media rather than using the songs / albums that I've actually downloaded to the device. This means when I'm in a bad signal area the media always buffers to the point you can't listen to it any more.

Is there any way to get around this - it does the same when connected via USB so doesn't seem to be something that I can fix easily? It's extremely frustrating!

Thanks
