MINI app warning

First time I’ve seen this pop up. Is this new?

In the MINI app?

Oh I can just make out the “<MINI” in the top left corner. So I guess it’s the Spotify app, maybe when it’s linked to CarPlay it knows you’re in motion.

Not CarPlay; old-school MINI Connected Apps

From the manual:

Principle
Certain apps of a compatible smartphone can be integrated in the vehicle. These apps are shown on the Control Display.

General Information
For reasons of safety, some apps are usable only while the vehicle is stationary. ...​

That's the old MINI logo. Every screen I've seen with the current MINI app uses the current MINI logo.

I simply got in the car as I have every day for almost 2 years and put my iPhone in the phone holder and this warning popped up, which I have never seen before.

As Insightman points out, this may not be from the MINI app as I had presumed. I’ve never used Spotify, so I have no idea why that logo appears. And why both logos together?

And here is another one. Does anyone recognize this? It sometimes appears when I remove my iPhone from the MINI.
