    Track titles and cover art is not displayed correctly on BMW (2015) when playing through Bluetooth or the USB interface in the center console. Symptom: Music plays and it is possible to switch tracks, but the cover art and track title is "stuck" on the first track played. It played great in the past and playing well with other music apps. Device (iPhone Xs) Running version 13.3.1 Car: BMW X6M 2015
