Has anyone been using Spotify through CarPlay and got any reviews on it? Is it fairly user friendly for searching, finding saved playlists, giving you recommended playlists etc?

Would love to hear your thoughts.

Hi Mate. I've got a courtesy 3008 while my 308 is in for warranty work, I have used Spotify via Android Auto and it's so easy to use. I'd totally recommend it. Everything you mention is easily achievable via the touch screen.

I'm massively jealous the 308 has to wait until September to get this functionality!!

I use it through android auto and the Mrs uses it through carplay. It's really good, only downside for obvious reasons it does restrict the amount of searching you can do on the move. I find this annoying as a passenger and can't work out how to overcome this.

Lots off stuff you can't do on Android Auto while on the move and unfortunately there's no way for it to distinguish the driver from the passenger.

Good tip for Spotify - if you have family members/friends willing to chip in a family subscription works out much cheaper than an individual one - just be sure to give the same postal address.

Best option on CarPlay would be to use Apple Music. Using Siri you can select Albums, Tracks & Artists, I guess that's the point of CarPlay it's hands-free.
