After struggling with Spotify in my Model Y since day one and reporting the issue multiple times, I have given up trying to use it. Despite reaching out to Tesla for help, they haven't been able to resolve the problem and their response has been to use Bluetooth instead. As a result, I have...

I am giving up on Spotify. Everyday I have to reboot the console to get it to play. I have been calling Tesla support every two weeks asking for any update. So far, nothing. I am going to start using TuneIn since I mainly listen to Podcasts. I found a code to save some money on a...

I have been successful in getting in touch with company executives by being persistent and polite. I was informed that Tesla has the source code for their Spotify app and can resolve issues. They are aware of the problem, but do not have a specific time frame for a fix. I also sent a direct...

My hope is my concern will be forward on to the correct team at Tesla. Both Service and Support haven't offered any solution or ETA. The issue has been going on for years and simply using a work around everyday so you can listen to audio in your car is frustrating to say the least.

There a link on Tesla's website. You go here then changed the drop down: Contact Us | Tesla Investor Relations

I reached out to Tesla, Inc.'s Board of Directors to express my ongoing concerns about Spotify integration in the infotainment system. Despite reporting the issue multiple times to both service and support teams, no action has been taken to resolve it. Has anyone had success in getting software...

Just want to provide a quick update. Since getting the update, I have used my car for several days. As of today, it would appear the Spotify playlist refresh issue has been fixed. I normally see the issue once a day, but I have driven the car the past several days and haven't had a single...

I have had this issue for years. Opened service tickets too. The issue may have been recently fixed with the holiday update but I am still testing.

Might be too soon, but for the past few drives I did after the update it appears Spotify is now correctly updating the hourly podcasts. Will need a few more days to know for sure.

Thanks for the tip. I just got the update yesterday; however, won't be able to test to see if the new version fixes the Spotify refresh issue until a few days. Tesla has acknowledged this as an issue but hasn't given any ETA to a fix. I have used TuneIn and it doesn't have this issue.

Does the 2022 Holiday Update fix the Spotify Playlist refresh issue? The issue has been present for several years. Issue: If you use Spotify and listen to playlists that get updated frequently, the list doesn't get refreshed. You are forced to reboot the screen to get Spotify to update the...

Well, its December 16, 2022 and this still is a bug. I reported this issue many times, sent videos of the problem and created service appointments to try and address this problem. I was recently told it's a known issue and they are working on a resolution, but have no ETA. The only thing...

Waze now supports Apple Music integration. https://www.engadget.com/waze-apple-music-integration-185022301.html Maybe with more companies working with Apple in integrating their music service, Tesla will also. I have used the native Spotify app, but it often has issues playing back...

Didn't realize but the Taycan has built in Apple Music in their info. Wonder if Tesla will add this. https://9to5mac.com/2019/08/19/apple-music-porsche-taycan/

"Audi is integrating Apple Music directly into the infotainment system of its select cars in North America, Europe, and Japan. This will allow Audi owners to enjoy Apple Music via the infotainment system without having to connect their iPhones to it via Bluetooth or USB." Looks like Apple is...
