Default Sync 3 Album Artwork

While listing to Apple Music, Pandora, Amazon Music, etc. you can faintly see the artist/album artwork underneath the “Now Playing” screen. If there is a way to display this artwork perhaps along with the song/album/artist information I am missing it.

I do not have navigation or Sirrus if that makes a difference. And I’m referring to the screen when the entire display is used for music and in CarPlay. (IOS)

Good question. I'd be interested in this too. I'd guess that the only real way to potentially edit this would be through the FORSCAN software program but even then i'm not sure FORSCAN has the capability. ...

I could have sworn I read a thread here that said if you push the CD eject and radio Scan right buttons together, there's some way to change the sync screen settings.

I believe that info displays when I use Google Play Music and choose my phone under "SOURCE".

That’s about what Im looking for and expect. Damn. That confirms what I was thinking, that it’s an Apple/CarPlay interface thing.

If I utilize Bluetooth and my phone to play music it’s a different outcome then if I utilize CarPlay and USB. Looks like IOS is lacking in this department as well. I have a love hate relationship with my families iPhones.
