I don't place that high a value on texting while riding.
I have an iphone5 in case I need assistance, other than that I ride.
I answer a phone 5 days a week for work.
I don't need to answer the phone or answer texts while I am riding.
Riding is much more important!
Staying alive is even more important!

NOBODY on this thread is stating we "talk" while riding or "text" while riding. We are just curious to find a solution as to why this feature is not working when it was sold as part of the new infotainment center. I will say, I love the infotainment center. I have 3 small children so if my wife calls me 3 times in a row I know it's an emergency so I will pull over and give her a call. For you to post "I answer a phone 5 days a week for work" adds absutely nothing to this thread. Must be nice to only need your phone 5 days a week for work. Some of the rest of us have other responsibilities (husband, father, etc) to attend to which makes the infotainment center helpful.

My Motorola (Droid Maxx) Android phone works fine with the auto reply feature.

Anyone that stipulates what features must be important to everyone is a douchebag. I like being able to listen to text messages from the wife and kids. If you don't like the feature and don't plan on using it then ignore the questions about it.
