IMO, the most functional way is Spotify via the iDrive app in the Technology Package ... on an iPhone.
(Sorry, OP: You bought a car that doesn't play well with Android, and hasn't since it was introduced in 2015.)
As for the 'best' part of your question: Please describe what you mean by 'best'. This subforum has a myriad of discussions about this from many different viewpoints.
I advise you to scan through some of the longer threads on this subforum; that will likely answer a few other questions you likely have. You'll find that the 2 Series audio is, by many estimations, the worst part of the car. It can be improved upon in some ways -- but functionality within iDrive is not one of them, unfortunately.
