iDrive issues with iOS12

Hey All -

Made the mistake of updating my iPhone to iOS 12 and now my iDrive doesn't alert me when I receive a text message. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

Thanks in Advance.

Make sure to turn on your notifications again under Bluetooth on your phone. Had the same issue myself.

Delete your iPhone from your list of known devices and repair it to the head unit

I followed this and saw nothing about "show notifications". I did however see "show contacts". I have yet to see my texts displayed across the idrive screen.

Do you have enhanced Bluetooth? That is needed for messages to show.
