Help Car stereo to control BT player in 10e

Hello Forum,

In my old SGS5 I could use the BT connection from the car stereo (2013 Toyota Highlander) to chose artist and song and start playing.

Last week I upgraded to SGS10e. BT pairing to the car stereo is fine, and when I use the phone to open a music player and start playing a song it is playing on the car stereo speakers. But there is no choice of artist / song / playback on the car stereo screen. That's of course not the desired mode of operation.

So what's the trick? Is there a specific player app required on the 10e to offer control / display on the car stereo screen via BT? In the SGS5 the plain Samsung stock player did the trick.

Thanks for your feedback.
Gert
