Q: 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

    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).

    I'm using a Uconnect system on a 2016 Dodge Challenger.  Seems new enough that it should work.

    I just checked out the Uconnect web site, and entered my VIN number, and it turns out there is a software update for my car that was released on 9/6/2016.  Going to install it right now and I'll let you all know if it makes a difference.

    I just did a test. My friends car has this feature working fine, so I paired my phone with his car and drove and parked and the feature still did not function.

     

    therefore it is not a problem with older car stereos but something with phone or software?

    I Have the same issue with iPhone 5s. Have reset all settings, deleted Bluetooth pairing on car and phone.

    NO joy!

    I know it isn't the firmware on the stereo, the device name 'MY CAR', or the age of the stereo, as it works OK with my son's iphone 6.

     

    I have now also tried a full reset on my iphone 5s, and restore from icloud backup. still no joy. I'm sure that this did work at some point in one of the public betas.

    I have iPhone 6 and VW Passat 2015 equipped with Discover Pro audio and so far I haven't managed to make this feature to work. Pretty odd

    Did a software update on my car's Uconnect system yesterday.  Still no luck. I wonder if there are certain phone/radio combos that just don't work.  Has anyone else gotten this to work with a 5s/Dodge Uconnect combo?  I'm using the latest iPhone version, the latest Uconnect version, on a 2016 car, and all the settings are correct on the phone. The only thing that isn't new is the phone hardware itself.  I'm seeing mostly posts about the 5s and 6 not working.  Is it possible this feature only works on 6s or newer?

    I wonder if there's no connection between this feature and frequent locations feature...It seems like FL stopped writing data about my locations after ios 10 update (no new dates appear in FL section)...maybe that's why it can't determine where you are...It still doesn't work..

    I have the exact same problem on my 5s. The only thing I did not test yet is re-pairing my phone with the car.

    So I tried to set up a 6S as a new phone, paired it with my car (VW Passat 2015) BT, checked all the settings and the feature is still not working
