In which case very strange. Good luck and do report back the solution.
Unable to send text messages
All I can add is that I have been able to do this successfully, both in terms of replying to a text (using dictation), and sending a text from scratch. Using Apple CarPlay in my case with an iPhone 7+.

Sputnik, have had a further look this evening. I have same problem with an 6s over Bluetooth. I haven’t tried over apple CarPlay (like pjm’s working set up) but that’s going to have to wait till tomorrow.

Update: tried with Apple CarPlay and that works fine. Can dictate and send SMS messages. So seems to me stacks up with the Volvo support page that iPhones/BT can’t send SMS. Like to be proved wrong.

So dealer emailed me last night regarding this issue. Tells me he is having the same issue in his own car and it should work. He’s going to speak to the area trainer about it and hopefully have an answer for me by the end of the week.

Messaging works on my car, but I haven't figured out a way to quickly reply to a text that I just received using voice. I end up starting a new message using the voice system. Anyone know what the voice command is to reply to a text you just received?

I thought it displayed in dash, then press right or left on the steering wheel to highlight reply, hit the circle and she asks you to say the message. Not sure I've asked her to read out messages, just use the circle when it's on the dash.

Today I tried sending a text message from scratch and it kept telling me my phone wasn't connected when in fact it was. I could see all my contacts and even reply to incoming texts but I could not start one from scratch. Any ideas?
