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

There is nothing. It works in Waze, though. So I'll use Waze until there is a next update. I thought maybe in my country the feature was not enabled but a friend of mine uses his Bluetooth and iPhone just fine in his car, he did nothing special to enable this. I could reset my whole phone and settings but it's not worth the effort as long as it works in another app, so I surrender! Thanks for your advice. I'm subscribed to the topic so maybe something comes up or some of us fixes it in a new way. 😐

Its definitely an issue from Apple just not sure why they don't do something about it and address it. I had the iPhone 6 running ios10 and this feature including ETA for frequent locations as soon as my phone would connect or disconnect to Bluetooth speaker was working perfectly. I upgraded to iPhone 7 and no longer works. Tech support is helpless and has no idea what is going on. I've tried resetting settings twice, resetting everything 3 times restoring from iCloud and from itunes both did not work. Notifications and all location service are on. Disconnected and deleted from car Bluetooth. Not sure why Apple instead of making me restore the phone 35 times actually do something and fix this bug.

Same here. I have an iPhone 6S, with all the location services turned on. It works on my wife's 2015 BMW, but does not work with my 2015 Lincoln MKZ. Oddly, I can use the Reminder Location settings of "Getting in the Car" and "Getting out of the Car" on the Lincoln (have not tried it with the BMW), both of which depend on a Bluetooth connection or disconnection. Strange.... I'm thinking it's the Bluetooth connection with the Lincoln that needs a reset or re-pair, and not the phone or its software.
