Hello nicholas9543,
Is it only when connected to CarPlay that you're experiencing not receiving notifications?
How are you connecting to CarPlay; wired or wireless? If you have the option to connect via cable or Bluetooth, can you try both connections to see if this happens with both, please?
You mentioned connecting to Wi-Fi. Does your vehicle have built-in Wi-Fi when using CarPlay?
Did you get a chance to review the parental controls article and check the restrictions?
Here is another great resource that we'd like you to walk through to see if this helps resolve any issues: If you need help with CarPlay
Thanks!
nicholas9543,
Have you checked to see if there are any updates to the firmware for the stereo?
Thanks!
I should have emphasized I'm using wireless carplay on a Kenwood unit. (Uses wifi to mirror). I can try hardwired if need be?
Bluetooth audio side works as it should, all notifications come through to my watch and don't miss anything.
Your article Would be helpful if I were prompted a notification. I get nothing on the screen nor a vibrate on the watch. It's like as if the watch was to be disconnected. My phone doesn't even vibrate and have to keep tapping the screen to see if I missed anything. Only thing that notifys me is a phone call. Both head unit, watch and phone.
