Hi Marlene-


Does your car still appear in your iPhone's bluetooth list? On your iPhone open Settings ➔ Bluetooth - Check to see whether your car's bluetooth name appears on that list. If it does not then you will need to pair your car's bluetooth system back to your iPhone.

If the car's name appears on the list then I would recommend that your pair you car's bluetooth system AGAIN anyway.

Hope that helps.

Hello CincyNana,


May I know why you would prefer disconnecting your Apple Watch over bluetooth when connecting to the bluetooth of you car? I ask because your iPhone is designed to remain connected to both your car and your Apple Watch and function normally. Your Apple Watch should never need to be disconnected from your iPhone for your iPhone to work properly with other bluetooth devices.
