I have a similar issue. My focusrite Scarlett solo USB-C interface is recognized, shows as an available audio source in Twisted Wave Recorder and all other DAWs and audio input apps- and works on my iPad-pro NTJH2LL/A. My co-worker, who is using a newer iPad-pro with the same apps cannot see the same Solo Scarlett interface. Also, the Scarlett 2 input USB-C interface that they normally use, is also unrecognized by Twisted Wave, Garage band, voice memo, etc. Believing software works the same, iPad Pro to iPad Pro, this should not be possible…

Ok thank you for confirming. In this case what happens is that the latest iOS 15 has upgrades in terms of connections to other devices and vehicles. Due to these updates in software, the iOS version is no longer compatible with the system in your vehicle model.


We currently don't have steps to downgrade the iOS since this might severely impact your phone's functioning. We definitely don't recommend it.


As per a fix, what happens is, this is not precisely and issue, but a normal thing that happens when new iOS updates come around


If you too have been obsoleted by software “upgrades” you can leave feedback that “won’t go unheard” here.

it might be normal but I shouldn't have to upgrade my CAR so that my phone plays music...this is a bug that needs to be fixed and this obsolescence thing is something that you consider ... as much as Apple would like to believe we don't all upgrade our lives around our phones this is far from the case. I hope to see this addressed in a new bug fix soon
