    Android person myself but noticed on wife's iPhone 6s occasionally the audio via Bluetooth to the jbl system gets choppy . it basically keeps cutting on and off. She has to duly then disconnect Bluetooth on iPhone and then reconnect to remedy.

    Anyone else had this issue? Never noticed it on any other vehicles.

    LG-H901 ?

    It's occurred a couple times as far as I've present in the vehicle with her and her iPhone . almost as if something else was causing interference with her connection via Bluetooth , possibly my phone ?

    LG-H901 ? Either way, no biggie.

    It occurred more than a few times after iOS 9 first came out. After 9.1 though I haven't had an issue.
    No issues with android or windows phone.

    That's the other thing. She was complaining that her iPhone wont auto connect after my phone was used last on the jbl headunit. She claims she has to go select her phone. Oh so many button presses. Lol.

    Happens to me more often than not. I remedy it by plugging into the receptacle.

    I took removed her phone as well as mine from the vehicle Bluetooth paired device list. On her iPhone I then removed the Toyota entune system or whatever it's know as. Rebooted her phone, hard reboot. Paired the two devices again from scratch and this time around didn't add my phone. So far all good

    I am not sure what all etune does with the navigation system. It may give you updates for wx and traffic. But it is a data hog if you use it for music.
