I recently purchased the iPhone 13 pro max. I’ve got it connected to my vehicles Bluetooth but only the phone will connect. No audiobooks, no music - apple or Spotify, no podcasts. I’ve removed and tried several times to no avail. My iPhone 11 connected easily. Phone has most updated iOS.
any help?! If I can’t get this connected I’ll have to return and go back to my 11 as I’m in my vehicle far too much to not have full access etc.
Hi there, joudrea.
You could see if restarting your iPhone 13 Pro Max might help resolve this: Restart your iPhone - Apple Support Restarting can seem like a simple step, but it can sometimes help resolve issues.
Can you tell us what happens when you try to play audio from your iPhone 13 Pro Max when it's connected to your car? Is it possible that another Bluetooth device might be connected to your iPhone where the audio is being routed instead of your car? Your answers can help us isolate what might be going on and possible next steps.
Take care.
joudrea,
Thanks. Are you able to play all audio through a different Bluetooth connection, such as a speaker or wireless headphones?
Cheers.
Only one phone connected to my rig
Hello joudrea,
At this point, we recommend contacting Apple Support directly for further help with this issue.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care!
Restarted it and removed it from my rig. Added it again. Shows connected. Tried Spotify and Apple Music. Both won’t connect. Only phone calls.
Yes, it will play on my other speakers. Just nothing other than phone in my Sequoia. Had no issues with our iphone 11s or our ipads (8th gen).
