How about a version that successfully connects to my car’s sound system right away, every time?
Anything car related with BT is almost always the car’s fault. They use shit hardware and don’t care about the software because no one can do anything about it. No one is picking their car based on the BT support.
I don’t know why but zero cars that I’ve been in seem to have its Bluetooth functionality made by sane people
For example: Hondas having multi-second delays
for some goddamn reasonapparently because they forgot the audio part of “bluetooth audio”???
Might be your cars fault. I’ve been in some cars that are cooperative (current is like a 99.5% success rate) and some that are… Not. Used a VW Bora, aftermarket head unit worked like 1 in 10 attempts. Newer Toyota corrola straight up steals my Bluetooth connection so I’d give that about 140% because it will always connect even if I don’t want to, am in another car and currently connected to a different device.
I think you are correct that it’s the car’s fault. I have an MPOW brand Bluetooth adapter that almost always works properly with my phone. I use it in my Mazda 3 that doesn’t have Bluetooth built in. My 2017 VW Golf (one year older than the MPOW adapter) does have Bluetooth and it frequently gives me trouble. However, I’m typically able to get the connection to work by disabling then reenabling Bluetooth on my smartphone. Resetting the VW head unit typically doesn’t help, which is the opposite of what I’d expect if the problem was with the car. The VW has Android Auto over USB, which I thought would be the end of my Bluetooth woes, but that has enough of its own problems that I just keep putting up with the Bluetooth.
