superb IV USB / Aux input

Hi all,

just gone from 2018 skoda superb to 21 superb IV. For music - my Ipod nano 5G worked a treat plugged into the USB aux in in the 2018, but "device not supported" (or recognised ?) message when plugged into the '21 IV (and worked fine in multiple previous Mondeo's).

Have tried both USB's - same message.

Don't really want to use phone - not enough space for music and need the ipod for bike / motorbike / travel / jogging music - phone too big / heavy and don't want to use the battery.

Several thousand tracks on the Ipod.

Any suggestions ?

Is the Ipod a 100% no go in this newer model .... or is there a fix ?

Or do i need to bite the bullet and move to ano device - ideally something as small and as light etc as the nano - and if so - any suggestions ?

Thanks!!  - and apols if this has already been covered (i searched but couldn't find anything)
