The other evening while sitting at a red light, I came across a screen to send text messages from the truck. It would go away when was driving, then reappear while stopped.
It had 3 pages of texts messages, i.e. call me, I'm lost, be there in 10 minutes etc.
I sent a text from it to my GF, she never rec'd.
But know I can't seem to find it. I've pressed every button on the truck and screen and I can't find it. Any I nuts?

I'm not sure if the '11 and '13 are the same, but on the '13 there is a messages tab along the right side of the phone screen. Haven't really messed with it, but that's where I'd start to look.

Ya I tried mine last nite. Didn't work. Im guessing its an issue between my iPhone and Sync. Damn Apple and Microsoft not getting along.

It's something with the type of Bluetooth Apple uses. It will notify me of txt just won't display or read them.

Or send from the truck, but I just tell Siri what to send.

If only we could marry Siri lol, always listens. And Apple has some funky things, like when they tried Apple Maps with the iPhone 5 haha. Just leave it to Google lol. Don't get me wrong, I still love iPhones and iPods, just not Macs

What phone you have? I think it works with some newer android phones.

Probably an iPhone because Microsoft and Apple don't get along very well lol.

Yep that's the issue. I was under the assumption that the new iOS and newest Sync were supposed to have that capability, but must of been mislead.

Eventually Apple and Microsoft will figure it out, I hope lol.

Hell we should just get Bill Gates to buy us all new trucks and he'd just use it as a minuscule tax write off

He probably would, he makes money faster than he can spend and give it away lol.
