Problems with "Parked Car" Feature (iOS 10 Maps)

I upgraded to iOS 10 on my iPhone 5S yesterday. I cannot get the parked car feature of maps to work.


I have the following enabled:


-All Apple Maps Notification options

-Maps Location Services (While Using). "Always" is not available as an option.

-System Services: Frequent Locations

-System Services:Routing and Traffic

-System Services:Improve Maps


My phone connects via Bluetooth to my car's handsfree system. Is it not carplay.


What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance!

iPhone 5s, iOS 10

This makes no sense.

  • Parked car updates used to work for me with this car and this iPhone. The car is 6 months old.
  • parked car updates no longer work now with this same car and iPhone.
  • work and home commute estimates still fire every time, when I get in the car I am given this info
  • I had my car in for maintenance and received the same car (different color - LOL) as a loaner yesterday. I paired BT for the day and it gave me parked car updates.
  • Got back in my car and ... nope
  • deleted my BT and reconnected and no change.

Speaking with apple, they advised that restoring iPhone as new is not advised as it would not make a difference.


It has been suggested that it has to do with the stereo in the vehicle and depending on age, IOS10 can't tell whether it is a Stereo or merely a headset, therefore it won't drop a pin on the map.


My stereo manufacturer is going to do a test and see if it is stereo firmware related or not.


I have reset my phone and paired to my car stereo and it still does not work, even though all the settings on the phone are correct.

Hi Miri88 an all of you who got that feature working. Whats the bluetooth id of your stereo. My idea: maybe ios10 has to know wether its a headset or the car stereo (as mentioned below) Best case, it would not be an isue of an old radio but only that there has to be "CAR xxxx" in the id. (or simular).
