Did you delete the car from your phone and the phone from your car? Do that then reboot the phone and switch off the car then re-sync the Bluetooth on them.
Hopefully that’ll work for you.
Yes, i did that multiple times and it fixes it temporary.
So I've now factory restored my phone (on Apple's advice) and reloaded iOS13.1 and still the same problem occurs. Spoke to BMW and they're naturally blaming the iOS update... grrrr
Any news about iOS 13.1.3? Did it fix the issue?
It doesn’t work. Period
No, not for me
That’s NOT the issue. Didn’t have a problem in either of my BMWs until the **** iOS update. Apple FIX THIS since I live in a state where we need to drive hands free and I COULD until update 13!!!!!
That is bull. I’ve got a brand new BMW and I’ve driven them for 20 years. Never had an issue until this update and clearly I’m not the only one.
I have tried all of the above and still no joy.
iOS 13.1.3 still hasn't solved the issue. Really frustrating for the last few weeks.
Still working just fine. Like I said delete the phone from the car. Delete the car from the phone then pair them as a fresh Bluetooth pairing. Worked for me anyway.
@Bolten88. I must have tried that 20 times. Still no luck 😔
Wooo hoo!! Finally after ios 13.2 all my contacts sync with bmw idrive again!
Installing it right now… will see tomorrow morning if it fixes it for me as well.
iOS 13.2 does indeed fix the issue :-)
That is great news! I will install it as soon as i get home and will check the results as well.
