AUX Input- Volume low in certain apps.

I originally had an issue with the volume being very low when connecting into the AUX port in the glove box. I was using Spotify through my phone and it was pretty bad, had to turn the cars volume all the way up just to hear but then the audio was distorted.

I happen to have the Pandora app so i gave that a shot and it seems to work perfectly. The volume is great.

I wonder what the deal is. I tried doing a lot of searching around for the Low AUX input and see there's many people having the same issue.

I have the free version of both apps so it doesn't matter which one I use. Actually the free version of Spotify is annoying to use, cant seem to choose songs i actually want to listen to it just plays random songs from the artist i choose.

Have you tried adjusting the volume through your phone for the app you are using?

When I first got my car, I thought something was wrong with the Bluetooth connection to my iPhone. Then the sales guy and I discovered that the volume on my phone was turned down.

I tried everything with Spotify. When in to the cars radio settings, found the "Boost" setting, no change.

probably something to do with the app or my phone.

I just found it odd that Spotify volume is so low. i researched online and alot of people had the same complaint using the AUX input. Then i tried pandora app and its great.
