Apple Car play/Bluetooth

I just upgraded to the iPhone 14 pro max and ever since everyone complains they can barely hear me on CarPlay as if I’m whispering and on Bluetooth they say it’s louder but sounds like I’m in a wind tunnel and still difficult to hear. I am very disappointed as I had no trouble at all a few days ago on my iPhone 11 Pro Max. It’s obviously an issue with the new phone/iOS but what can I do about it? I already played around with all the settings/volumes I could find.

As far as today and since last Wednesday, this solution seems to work for me. I’ll see if it still does in an hour when I’ll take my car.

go to your car dealer and ask for a factory reset of the entertainment system.

mon your iPhone, forget the car associated in car play and Bluetooth settings.

restart your iPhone.

when factory reset of the car is done, pair again your phone and restart the car.

I also have noticed that if your network connection in 4G 5G is poor or if you are in an underground parking, CarPlay has issues to connect.

According to Apple, the phone is film operational. We need to replace cars with those without CarPlay. 😀

Someone else posted a few days ago that Apple won’t let him return the 14. I haven’t tried to return mine but I’m getting close to it.

Worked perfect with iPhone 11’s and now doesn’t work with 14 pro. Subaru Outback in fact works fine up until I got the iPhone 14 pro / iOS 16

I got the same comment from people I called that the my voice is much improved, hopefully Apple works more on improving the voice.

I have the same issue. iPhone 14 pro in a 2020 Ford with CarPlay. No one can hear me! It was not like this with my iPhone 12 Pro at all. Car has not changed.

Oct 12, 2022 4:23 PM in response to Jlhorowitz36

I just saw that and updated. Haven’t had a chance to make a call yet. Fingers crossed.
