iOS7 and Volvo Car Connection
I have an iPhone 5, and updated to iOS 7 this afternoon. I also have a 2011 Volvo XC70, which has an integarted car connection--plug a sync cable in a USB port. However, with iOS7, the behavior has become quite odd:
Action | Bevavior on iOS 6 | Behavior on iOS 7 |
---|---|---|
Plug in and set stereo to USB mode | Plays current song, displays song title on stereo | Does nothing until I hit "play on the phone", displays song title on stereo |
Hit Skip forward on stereo or or steering wheel | Skips to next song, updates display | Updates the display to the next song in playlist, but does not change the song playing (dispaly on phone updates) |
Hit skip backward once on stereo or steering wheel | Starts song over, display stays same | Starts song over, displays stays the same (however, if I skipped forward first, the playing song restarts, but the dispay shows whatever it was showing before) |
Hit skip backward twice on stereo or steering wheel | Goes to previous song in the playlist, display updates | Starts playing song over, but display moves to prior song in the playlist. |
("Dispaly" refers to the dispaly on the stereo, showing track information. The iPhone display shows whatever is currently playing.)
As this is a three-year-old car, "replacing the accessory" isn't exaclty an option. The behavior with the display suggests, to me, a bug rather than an inherent incompatibility.
Any ideas?
