[CigarPundit]

So I tried the iDrive control of my iPhone X on the way home today. I actually prefer the CarPlay. I have a lot of music on my phone (8,000+ songs), and the CarPlay interface allows me to aceess them quickly and reliably from the moment I start the car. The iDrive interface seems to take some time to get caught up with my music library. Also, I experienced a weird malfunction with the iDrive. I stopped by a store on the way home and when I returned to the car and started it up, it resumed the song I was playing when I shut the car off (as does CarPlay), but then it switched to another song uncommanded. Then I noticed the delay again in displaying my library correctly. I've never had a single issue like this with CarPlay. Works like a charm.
