Amazon Music App on Carplay only shows albums and artists up to letter K

2019 Silverado Custom Crew...iPhone 8 Plus...iOS 13.1.1

Everything works fine with carplay except Amazon music will only show to letter K for albums or artists under my music. I even subscribe to the onboard WiFi unlimited. Once in a while it works...but leaving it on doesn't seem to fix (so it isn't just taking a long time to load). Anyone else have this issue? I seem to remember when I rented a Malibu with carplay it did the same thing.

How the hell do I listen to Metallica??!!! LOL

UPDATE: I speedtested my Silverado hotspot and was getting only around 5Mbps (my cell also with ATT was getting 15). I called OnStar and they verified some settings had to be turned on (why would they, but anyway the tech was helpful).

Now my truck is easily getting 16+Mbps on the download. So that is fixed. As for Amazon...it is way snappier when it works.

I found that if I connect my phone to carplay in my driveway, my phone will still be on my home wireless. Then when driving it will switch but Amazon music does not like that (only going to letter K/black screen etc). If I wait to get out of range of my home wifi and then connect my phone for the first time, so far it all works. (More testing to come). Hopefully this helps someone else.
