Phone connectivity

[Finlayforprez]

At least as far as my Android phone is concerned - never tried an iPhone - it depends on what I am streaming via BT. If I play music stored on the phone's memory or microSD card, or certain services (such as internet radio stations via ShoutCast on XiiaLive Pro), track title and artist do appear on the touchscreen. If I stream other services however, such as Pandora, I don't get any song info and just the generic "Bluetooth Audio" tag instead. I suspect this is more a limitation of the apps or OS specific players than of the car's Bluetooth system, which may be addressed in future releases of operating systems or apps.

Hey GoLoaf,

My apologies, as I missed your above post. I have the same experience as Umberto when streaming BT on my iPhone 4S, although I think I tried Pandora once and it showed songs on my touch screen? You will definitely get the track information when you stream BT, at least on the touch screen. I know when I stream BT it just says "Bluetooth Audio" on the dash LCD display.

Excellent, thanks, guys!!

Just want to add, the BT streaming is pretty darn cool - works a lot better than I thought. Very good music quality.
