For years I have used Cortana on my Lumia 950 and had it sync to my car via Ford SYNC (Bluetooth). This allowed me to get phone calls, texts or voice guided directions. However with the Duo it seems like a step backwards and I have seemingly lost functions? The incoming and outgoing phone call work fine as they used to. The problem is with texting and navigation. For example with my old phone I would drive with my radio on and the music would cut off when I would get a text, and Cortana via my cars Bluetooth would say “You have a message from (contact), read it or ignore it” and I would say "read" and it would read it. It would read the text and ask if I wanted to reply and if I said yes it would beep and I could say my message and say “Send” and off it would go without me touching a thing. But now with the Duo the best I get is a window that pops up on the screen in my car indicating a text and I then have to touch the cars screen and push “hear it”. It then reads it to me with no option to reply or anything? Also only about 20% of the texts come through this way the others never show up. Likewise there is no voice navigation from my Duo to my cars Bluetooth. I can see the directions on the screen but no voice. I have a feeling the texting and navigation issues are related, but not sure. Looking for a fix for this…
