Samsung S4 and iDrive without apps

Hi all.

I drive a 2014 328xi with iDrive without the apps feature. My question is I am thinking about getting a Samsung Galaxy s4 and wonder if it would be compatible to play music and playlists?

Thank you for your time.

All my best,
Matt

It can play music via bluetooth but it does not incorporate the playlist. Once you select the playlist on the phone it will play the playlist. I believe if you use the USB port in the armrest with a cable it will do a playlist. It does require you to have all your music in the phone memory (which is rather small vs an external SD card). I will try it later today. All other functions work with the S4 (connected drive, internet).
