A new app is available for MINI owners to use the Spotify music streaming service. It gives access to over 20 million songs and is one of a variety of music services on offer. To use Spotify it is necessary to have a car with MINI Visual Boost Radio and MINI Connected or the MINI Media Pack. It also relies on having an iPhone 4s and at least iOS 7.
The app is free to download; once installed and the phone connected to the car you can search the music library by genre, artist, album and track. The service can also display album artwork and use it to create customised playlists.
Anything else?
MINI Connected also provides access to social media such as Facebook, Twitter and foursquare. There is also MINI Connected XL Journey Mate to provide directions, travel information and locate a car park.
