IPhone Bluetooth music....SIAP
Screwy thing......if I pair my iPhone8 to my 2019 SGS and my Harley 20S to my WHIM, all of the voice recognition features work except 1:
I cannot use voice recognition to play the music on my iPhone. I either get “media not selected” or “song not recognized”. It’s driving me nuts. I have developed a theory that the Boom GTS is not recognizing the format of the music on the phone. May be right, may be wrong.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a way to make the music format compatible with the Boom system so that voice activation works?
Sorry....important addendum.....I use the WHIM with the H-D Sena 20s. I have the Sena connected to the Boom by way of wireless headset pairing and the iPhone connected to Boom by Bluetooth.
All voice recognition commands.....nav and phone work perfectly. But asking to locate and play a song or album or artist does not work.

As a matter of fact.....that does work!!! I was pushing the voice activation and trying to use the Boom commands rather than holding the button for Siri. I'm not sure (no, I'm positive) I don't understand the difference in the systems and I can't explain why the Boom system will perform every function except for music on iPhone, but you have at least given me a solution to the problem. Thanks very much.

Thats the kicker here.....Ive known all along that with Apple CarPlay I could do all I wanted to do with ease. I just somehow discovered this glitch and it became kind of an obsession to solve it. Im going to take the SGS in and let the folks who flashed the WHIM originally take a look at the settings and see if there is something funky going on there.
Just to make sure Im on the right path...when I plug into the USB, it automatically shuts off the Bluetooth connection. Is there some other reason I should turn Bluetooth off that Im not aware of? Thx.

Went back and checked it.....on the Media screen, Bluetooth is grayed out when CarPlay is on, so I don't have conflicting connections.

Ok, not sure why Boom can't control bluetooth music. At least there's a workaround with Siri.
