Any plans for BMW to up their game with Android?

I currently have a iPhone 6 but am thinking of getting a Samsung S7 or HTC 10. While I know Bluetooth will work fine what about Spotify over USB on Android? Is it still crap/doesn't work at all?

Have BMW made any announcements about improvements for existing owners? Seems crazy they ignore Android.

Probably not, BMW are very linked to Apple as a company with their R&D.

Shame. I do fancy the S7 edge as my next phone.

So why isn't BMW Office compatible with the iPhone, yet is with Android? Not blaming you by the way. I just find this frustrating!!
