Anyone having same issue as me when attempting to play Spotify via USB. My phone shows up as USB but it says no media found.

Does it work with Bluetooth?

I don’t use Spotify but my guess is the USB input only works with Apple Music or files saved on your phone.

This is correct. Use bluetooth and the 12v port to charge your phone.

really? that’s lame. on the 2010 IS and RX I was able to use USB to play as AUX.
I was looking for this option in case I want to use someone else’s phone for music/navi.

I mostly use Bluetooth for Spotify, USB does work for me, but it does not show what song is playing on the infotainment for me. It’s just all blank

seems like I have to connect to phone first before I start the car for USB to work for music. Once unplugged, it’ll stop working until I reconnect to phone and restart car.

I’m on an Iphone. It works now but has to be plugged in prior to starting the car.
