Cannot connect new iPhone 4S to my Prius V bluetooth . Have been trying so many different fixes. Maybe if the almighty Apple read the posts, the problem could be fixed. Help!!!
iPhone works with Prius via Bluetooth for Phone and Music.
iPhone will not work for Entunes/Inernet connection except when plugged into the USB port. This is an Apple/ATT/Verizon shameless commerce deal. They disable the Bluetooth internet connection to get you to pay twice for your data usage. You have to purchase the Personal Hotspot Tethering (another $30 a month) in order for the iPhone to work via Bluetooth vs. the Prius USB port.
Not Toyota's fault.
Though Toyota has other issues. The Prius USB port is under powered and if you connect via a Mophie or CaseLogic battery case, you get "Warning Will Robinson" beeps and messages and the Prius shuts down the USB port. My Escape hybrid USB port had no issues.
