My wife's Infinity works great with my Windows phone and her iPhone, but not in the Jag. What are we missing that keeps this from working?

Common problem. go to settings/Bluetooth/advanced then toggle "connect in a different way". This does fix the issue.

That worked, Thanks! Funny thing is I messed with that setting before with no success. The car and the phone have seen a few updates since the last time I tried so maybe that helped as well.

I do not have this setting on my 2010 XF Portfolio. Is this feature only on newer models?

Doesn't appear to be any such setting on my iPhone 5s either. I guess it only works with Windows phone.

WOW! Thanks for the tip! I just thought the Jag didn't support this feature. My Windows phone is truly hands free now txt to speech & speech to txt works great.
