iPhone 11 on iOS 13 having Bluetooth connectivity issues

New iPhone 11 on iOS 13 is having Bluetooth connectivity issues.

both my daughter and I are having the similar issues.

daughters phone is an 11 64GB Purple.

mine is an 11 128GB White

Hers gets connected to her 2018 Toyota C-HR and constantly drops out. Her iPhone 7 Plus never had any issues.

I have mine connected to a Boss BT module on my motorcycle. Never had any issues with my iPhone X.

neither of our other phones we’re running iOS 13.

I updated to 13.1.2 It looks like "MOST" of my issues have been fixed with this latest update. My 2012 Scion xB stock stereo is now not dropping or getting garbled calls. My iFrogz headphones are now staying connected when paused in Pandora.

The only remaining bug(s) I'm seeing are:

Hey Siri is somewhat spotty. Like the phone isn't hearing me sometimes. Very random.
When placing a call via Hey Siri in my car, the bluetooth connection between my iphone 11 and my scion xB, will connect/disconnect several times before the dialing sound starts. Once the dialing starts, it stays connected.

For the record, my wife has an 11 Pro Max and she has not had any issues. I’ve had issues since day 1 with my 11 Pro.

Just wish I had never upgraded to IPhone 11.....does anyone think Apple will ever sort out the Bluetooth fiasco? Or even acknowledge that there really is a serious problem?

I did the same thing. No difference. A lot of aggravation resetting everything. Apple needs to fix this ASAP.

Hi, I don’t have an Apple Watch or use CarPlay. It’s a common or garden London taxi. I just want to use a Bluetooth earpiece as I usually do, with people being able to hear me. Can anybody help.

The problem of other manufacturer's poorly written software? That won;'t happen.

If it's an issue in iOS, they will fix those issues.

Every time I get in my car , I have to reconnect. If I get out for 5 minutes to go into the gas station, I have to re-pair it to the audio media. Same for my printer.
