This bugs me as well... I have an iPhone 4s on iOS 6.1.3 which supports MAP. the message button is greyed out! GRRRRRR

OK!!! Wait. I just tried a different wording for google.

In case others need this:
iPhone 4+ iOS6+

Settings > BlueTooth > Uconnect > (the little arrow) > Show notifications > ON

says that should enable MAP!

fingers crossed!

reading through the manual... Is it true you cant compose a text if the car is moving??? LOL
whats the point since you could TYPE IT WHILE YOU ARE STOPPED! thats just silly


EDIT:

yep. the button is enabled.. now i just need to get a text! lol

im still waiting to get a text! lol

how does it notify you?

Yeah its cool... im tempted to have the wife send me dirty ones or funny stuff just to hear the truck say it out

I've got an AT&T Galaxy S3 and text receiving and voice sending works fine without rooting my phone. The Uconnect 13.19.0 update resolved the issue. Takes a few minutes after vehicle start for Messaging button to light up on the Phone menu. Wasn't working prior to the Uconnect update.

Can you create text with voice while the vehicle is moving? (just curios since it says in the manual that you cant)

When crafting a message via voice it reads it back to you. So you can experiment with saying funny stuff then seeing if it got it right, and hearing her say it. She correctly heard and repeated "jackass" yesterday while I was in the car with clients. We all got a good laugh.

yeah i would try that.. but those of us stuck with an iPhone cant do that.... since apple has yet to fully implement the M.A.P. for it...

do you guys pay monthly for this?

The 2014 RA4 comes with one year of service (Uconnect Access) RA3 comes with 6 months.

Im not sure if Ucon Access is required for it to read them, or only to send (which wont matter! lol)



as far as iOS and Siri... in the 2011 i had activating Siri was a major pain... would take forever for the car to see the BT connection. Now, its almost instant! Fantastic! Hit Siri and you hear the Beep through the car and the radio pics it up like its a phone call. Very nice
