Pandora not fully functional in CarPlay

[Musicmarc]

Pandora does not seem to stream to CarPlay as of 9 days ago.  Prior to that everything worked automatically with no issues.  To work around I’ve had to make my personal hotspot discoverable for music to play and even that seems to lag: display reads “poor network connection please wait”.  The dealer is saying my BMW needs a software update at $417.00 in order for the app to work optimally.

Hi @Musicmarc 

Welcome to community!

Sorry for any trouble when using Pandora with CarPlay. Do you use the Wireless version of CarPlay or are you connected to your head unit with a cord?
