Uconnect Highjacks Audible Text Notifications

Just bought a 2015 Jeep Wrangler with Uconnect 430N system. Paired my iPhone 5s running 8.13. Phone calls are fine. However if I receive a text, my phone only vibrates while I'm driving and I have no idea I received a text unless I physically check the phone or feel the vibration. Somehow Uconnect highjacks the audible sounds associated with my texts on my phone.
I know iPhone is not compatible with on-screen text receiving, but it shouldn't shut off my sounds on my phone. Oddly enough, the Uconnect radio in my wife's 2010 Liberty doesn't highjack these notifications.
A call to Uconnect was worthless. They said there is no support for my 8.1.3 OS yet but it would just magically appear at some point without downloading it. There was no clue as to why the phone notifications work in a 5-year-old Uconnect system.
I have selected the "Show Notifications" switch on my phone within the Bluetooth\Uconnect pairing.
What else can I try?

From what I understand from the Jeep Forum community, this is an Apple issue that doesn't allow audible notifications when hooked up to a bluetooth car radio.  It also doesn't allow for the texts to be read aloud or visually read on the radio screen as they come in.  So, until Apple addresses this issue iPhone users just have to feel the vibration to know when a text comes in.

  • Removing text notification banner

    Hi! Have tried researching this but no answers. Is there a way to disable the text notification banner at top of phone WITHOUT losing the sound notification? Want to hear when I receive a text but don't want it displayed. TIA!

    The native texting app on the Turbo only has the option for notifications ON or OFF, so if you are using that, then it's all or none.
    If you are using Verizon Messages +, you can go into the app settings and turn off the alert in the notification bar, and still have the audible alert sound.
    Other apps  may have the same options in settings, so check whatever texting app you are using, or use Verizon messages+ which does give you that option.

  • When on a call my email and text notification still come through how do i stop this

    How do I stop my email and text notifications whilst making a phone call?

    Well, Rich, here we are in 2014 and this is still a problem.  Apparently, Apple doesn't care what we think about this annoyance.

  • Email and text Notifications when on a call

    Is there a way to stop email and text notifications when I am on a phone call? I have a long email alert and message tone, and when I'm on a call and they go off, it's so loud and long I can't hear who I'm talking to.
    They can't hear the alert but it goes on for so long they waffle on and I miss a lot of conversation. Why is this not automatically disabled or set to silent when taking a call?

    Again,we shouldn't have to. I've been an iPhone user since 3G and its taken years just to get simple things that even 10 year old nokias can do. Since we can now use our own alert tones etc, they can't even get them to be quiet when on a call. I've no need to know I've received a text or email when I'm on a call.
    Always seems like apple don't think things through in the rush to get their gadgets out. Surely this is an easy fix that could have been sorted by now, there are enough complaints about it.

  • I have iMessage on iPad and iPhone but text messages still won't appear on my iPad? I thought we were supposed to get text notifications on both devices?

    Does anyone have the same problem? I want to get text notifications on my iPad like I do my iPhone but I do not. I have both iMessages turned on and have tried restarting both apps and resyncing to my computer

    To get them on your iPad the sender will have to direct the message to your Apple ID and not your phone number.

  • How can I hear text notification in Resound hearing aid when in vibrate mode?

    How can I hear text notification in Resound hearing aid when in vibrate mode?

    You should turn off "Auto input monitoring". I only have L8 and there you find it under Options->audio->Auto Input monitoring. Would guess that its in the same place in L9

  • How do I set my text notification to just a vibration?

    Im not even sure if this is possible, but I just want my text notification to be a vibration instead of a sound. I've tried putting the vibrate option on and text sound to 'None', but it doesn't work.

    Will you phone vibrate with sound though? Do you have Mac or PC? It can be done a couple ways.
    1. If you have GarageBand on Mac> You can make a silent ringtone> Send ringtone to itunes>sync and set as text tone.(vibrates twice on mine).
    2. Try getting a silent ringtone from another source to set as text tone.
    I have seen people ask about this for reg. ringtones to set vibrate to unsaved contacts.
    I can explain further if any of this sounds helpful to you.

  • How to stop text notification while talking on iphone 5 s

    How do I stop text notifications while talking on the iphone 5s? The text notifications volume is louder in my ear than the conversation I am having

    I was hoping for a solution in the settings instead of having to remember to move the silent switch position each time.  But thank you

  • My text notification light no longer works now since the Lollipop upgrade.  How do I get it back since i use my phone in silent mode most of the time?

    My text notification light no longer works now since the Lollipop upgrade.  How do I get it back since i use my phone in silent mode most of the time?

        We want you to love your software update pitbullmommy71! When did you update your phone? Have you tried going into phone settings and set up your notifications as you would like them? It can take a few days for your phone to normalize after the update, but this may be a bit much. Some apps may no longer be compatible with the new software so you can try running phone in Safe Mode or do a Hard Reset to see if this improves your phone. I've seen where some have completed a Hard Reset after the update and downloaded all same apps, and phone works flawlessly now. However, if you'd like to try Safe Mode first, (which is where all 3rd party apps are disabled), you can certainly try this for 24 hours to see if improves.

  • IOS text notifications not showing up

    Hi,
    We are using v30, and the text notifications all say "sent" when sending "Distribution" to all readers, but don't i don't see them showing up. It's been about 15 minutes.
    I have all the settings turned on since downloading the app.
    Thanks.

    I just deleted the app from the Newsstand app on my iphone, and redownloaded to see if it would bring up the prompt to ask if i wanted to receive notifications or not. I never got a prompt, so maybe there is something with the certificates. Like i said, i have it all turned on on my device, but i can't quite remember if the first time i downloaded the app it asked me these things. I want to say it did, and i'm sure i would have said yes. But not sure why i don't receive the prompt after completely deleting and reinstalling.

  • Why do I get the text notification when still in the text and someone responds?

    When I am texting with someone and the text is still showing on the screen I get the text notification every time they respond.
    I have my text tone set to tri-tone, reminder alerts to none and vibrate off.
    It wasn't always like this and it's driving me nuts.
    Thanks for any help you can give me.

    Someone answered in another thread.  They told me to turn the phone off and wait a minute or 2 before turning it back on and it worked!  Just thought I would share in case anyone else was having this problem.
