iPhone 11 on iOS 13 having Bluetooth connectivity issues

I recently updated my iPhone 8 Plus to the 11. The 8 plus worked great with Uconnect. With my iPhone 11 the music will not play it’s connected via usb in my 2014 charger. I tried via Bluetooth won’t work at all. I called Uconnect the rep said they are aware of the issue and trying to resolve it. That was month ago. Still won’t work. I followed trouble shooting hints removed reinstalled/paired it a few times still nothing. It’s annoying to say the least that Uconnect and apple cant come up with a solution. It’s very frustrating. If this continues I will not get a new IPhone.

Is it possible to go back to previous versions of I.o.s to test if it is I.o.s. 13? That would prove it. Then if it works stay with it until Apple get their act together before they loose a lot of customers and good will. But then they are do big now they provoke ly don’t care.

My last conversation with Mopar and uConnect was that they only officially supported iPhones up through 8. Their latest update that I did a few months ago didn't change anything. My iPhone XS worked flawlessly, I didn't have problems until I upgraded to the iPhone 11 Pro. I didn't try the iPhone XS after upgrading it to iOS 13 so I can't speak to it being just an iOS issue.

That is more or less exacty the same issues that I am seeing in my Jag.

• Phone Connects and seems ok.
• When it rings I try and answer the call but I can only hear sound through the phone.
• Jaguar infortainment system then freezes until I turn off the bluetooth on the phone but the call is still active.
• I then need to pair the phone with the car again.

It's definetly a phone issue, I just wish Apple would own the problem.

William, I experienced this problem with my iPhone 11 almost a year ago. It cost me thousand of dollars in lost business. After many unsuccessful attempts to rectify it I did exactly what you just recommended. I took it back and got an iPhone x. It works flawlessly. But at the time you mocked me for going backwards in technology. Nice touch. I know, you've never experienced a problem with your phone. But most here have. And your replies are adding nothing to the solution.

I have been running iOS 13.7 for a few days now. Prior to, my success rate was about 90% connectivity in my car. Now on iOS 13.7 it is about 10% if not worse. Seems like 13.7 was a major step backwards.

I originally posted this bluetooth connectivity issue back in April. The listing of similar complaints is over 160 pages long!

Everyone is complaining about the i-phone 11 pro. This has been a massive problem with only this model phone. How can we get all our complaints to Apple. I feel we all deserve to get a full monetary credit towards the next i-phone when it becomes available. All older model i-phones work perfectly, it's only this model. Come on Apple, where is your customer service to all of us who are completely frustrated with this serious defect! Every ios up-date since April has not fixed this issue. Apple, please take care of us!

This issue is nothing to do with your car. It’s the **** phone.

My 1 month old IPhone 11 sent away to CZ for repair. Came back no better.

My independent supplier has today given me another new IPhone 11.

Watch this space....... I shall try it for 48 hours 🤞

Update: Second IPhone 11 also has Bluetooth issues.

Clearly, this problem is with later 11’s, as earlier seem to work fine.

Hugely disappointed with Apple. Even an acknowledgement would be a bonus. I’d suffer this if there was a solution on the horizon.

Back to my bomb proof Iphone 10, and a refund for the useless, not fit for purpose IPhone 11.

I actually managed to get mine semi-fixed by getting an Apple Watch. It connects perfectly to my Series 5, and I can use my Airpods through my watch.

Haven’t really had problems since and even my Apple Wallet is actually opening and working now!

the iPhone 11 Bluetooth is junk. No update will fix. It will still switch Bluetooth devices randomly which renders the hands free not only useless but dangerous. It is a issue Apple is very aware of and you will spend mucho time, stress, data, and finally it looks like fuel trying to find a apple store to take it to get looked at. Apple should be ashamed to put a product like the iPhone11 out

I am now on iOS 14.3 but my iPhone 11 will not Bluetooth to my UE Boom speaker, all my families other apple products connect faultlessly to it including an old iPhone 4, a 6, a 7 Plus, a mini iPad and an iPad air2 , it’s just the 11 that constantly breaks up. I have just purchased a HomePod mini which uses airplay rather than Bluetooth and I can finally play music off my iPhone 11. It’s a shame that apple have failed to resolve this problem with the 11 that has forced me to spend another £99 in order to stream my music.

iPhone 12 doing it too. I recently switched from a Galaxy s10 to the iPhone 12 Pro. I use a plantronics headset that has worked fine for years. But now with the iPhone, when I get into my car with Uconnect the plantronics headset disconnects and reconnects about every minute or two. So I basically lose my conversation for a few seconds all the time. If I unpair from the car then it seems to be OK. But for some reason the iPhone can't seem to manage the 2 connections. On my Galaxy I used this setup every day with no problems ever. Quite disappointed. And missing my Android phone about now.

Just updated to iOS 13.1 but still have this bluetooth issue, which is really annoying!!!
