Text messages? Do I have to have my Iphone plugged in for some pop up/notification?

[Ultimateone]

New owner and did not have anything told to me about any of the tech in my R. But I have been noticing am I not seeing any sort of notification of receiving a text message at all. I added Carplay so does this change the way the head unit shows you have a text?

thx

As long as your phone is connected via BT, you are good to go on notification on the OEM HU.

If you are just using the bluetooth connection, I recommend plugging the phone in to use CarPlay instead. The OEM system is horrific to use daily, and Carplay essentially bypasses it.

I plug in my Ipod for music so that's not really an option. I wish the car had wireless Carplay like my last 3 cars...

Do you have Do Not Disturb While Driving turned on?

You get text messages with carplay without the phone connected? Can you elaborate how you got this functioning? I seem to only get them when the phone is hardlined to run carplay.

I get the text message pop up from the head unit which wasn't happening at all previously and not Carplay.

Just curious, what did you end up having to do.

I don't have a problem because I use DND while driving and that silences texts and text notifications whether connected via BT or CarPlay. I can still see the notification badge on the Messages app icon and decide if want to hear the text and reply. Calls come through regardless of DND whenever the phone is connected no matter the connection method. That's just the way the iOS' DND works.

I had to choose notifications on my Iphone under Honda bluetooth, as well as make sure that pop up was set to "on" under the phone settings on the head unit
