iOS 11 Bluetooth music playback bug?

I have some Jabra Move v2.5.0 bluetooth headphones and everytime I hit the play/pause button on my headset while I am listening to a podcast on my podcast player, pocket cast, the phone will switch to apple music app and then play what I was listening to last, then if I hit the button again it will not pause the song until I unlock my phone. Would like to know what I should do...

(I have an iPhone 6S)

This is also happening in my 2015 Ford Focus with my ford sync and with music I’ve purchased from Apple I was going to subscribe to Apple Music but see no point in that now if this bug can’t be fixed and I also see in this thread that its happening on Mercedes as well please fix this bug Apple all my music is showing as unknown it’s ann

Same here. On iOS 10 and before it worked perfectly well. Now on iOS 11 when I connect to my car stereo using bluetooth it doesn't show any song info: no artist, no album, no song. I can only playback the music. Also control buttons on my steer wheel like next and previous do not work as intended.

I am having a slightly different issue since the upgrade. The Bluetooth in my iPhone 6 randomly cuts out when streaming to the audio system in the car (2015 Honda CR V EX-L). It always shows the music playing on the display in the car, but no sound. Wait a few minutes or switch sources and sometimes it comes back. Other times if I skip a song, the audio disappears again. Other times it plays fine for 2-4 songs and then goes silent. Everything worked fine until the upgrade to iOS 11, and the patch.

I am have the same issue. Immediately after updating to IOS 11 on my 6S, I started losing bluetooth every few minutes while streaming a radio station over cellular data. This is consistent regardless of the streaming station. My 6S will lose the bluetooth connection then will retry connecting. It usually reconnects and then sometimes the stream restarts. But many times after bluetooth reconnects I have to press play on the station to restart streaming. This never happened before updating to ios 11. Never.

I’m having the same issues. Playback through my Bluetooth car stereo, the song title often gets stuck on the display, even if I advance to the track. I’ll also often lose complete Bluetooth control of skipping songs.

I also get small audio drop outs like a CD skipping king of. This happens from all music apps.

Same here. I could play audio from any app on my iPhone (Pandora, podcasts, etc.) just fine before the iOS update in my Jeep Grand Cherokee with Uconnect but now the only audio that consistently comes through is when I play music that's stored locally on the phone. Apple, you can do better.

Adding to the commiseration. I have a VW 2015 GTI base trim. With my iPhone 7 on iOS 11 my infotainment screen has stopped displaying song information (title, artist, etc...). Music playback does go through, but any time I try to control the music (skip, pause, previous) it causes Spotify on my phone to pause the music. Pressing play from the infotainment screen does not resume playback.

Apple, if you need any diagnostic information from my system please reach out. I'd be happy to provide it.

Apple 'Music' app plays on my Honda Odyssey via Bluetooth. It displays the title of the first song played, but when the second, third, fourth, etc. songs play it continues to display the first song title (it doesn't update to show the song currently playing). Problem began when I installed ios 11.0.

I am having the same issue. Prior to updating to iOS 11 my Bluetooth in my 2014 Odyssey was perfect. Now it is hit or miss if the correct information will be displayed. I’m also having a problem where I’ll answer a call but it doesn’t direct it to the Bluetooth but instead answers on the phone. I’ve tried unpairing and repairing, rebooting phone, and finally deleting and reinstalling all music but no change. Anyone find a solution?

@heyyomamma regarding the issue of directing to phone vs bluetooth, I've struggled with a similar issue but I found that if you answer the call using the phone's touch screen it will direct to phone speakers, and if you answer using the bluetooth controls it will direct to bluetooth system. Perhaps this is what's happening with your situation.

I have an Subaru Outback 2016 and I have the same issue with no song info and I’m no longer able to skip songs from my steering wheel. The new iOS 11 feels like the buggiest upgrade by far or so I remember.

Also having the same problem!

Even after the two updates

You have to go all the way to the music app to change your song or to see what song is playing.

Its a great feature if it worked. Now it just takes up the top of your notification screen and you cant even use jt

I’m having the same issue since the iOS 11 upgrade I have a Dacia Duster when connecting to BT it no longer shows track information, allows me to skip on the radio or skip through the steering wheel controls.

The only way I am able to do this at present is turn off my Bluetooth and connect the device as an iPod through usb connection. Hoping for a fix soon Apple!!

I'm also having this problem in my Audi A4... Even 2 Updates later. Is there any official statement? Guess not...

It worked perfectly on iOS 10. This was the best part of Apple Music, recognizing the library as an iPod in my car but now it's useless. Is there any workaround until it got fixed?
