    Evening all,
    I tried to connect my iPhone 7 running iOS 10.2 to the car and it wouldn't do it at all. It would recognise it but the phone wouldn't send a code. I checked with apple and they reckoned the phone was working fine.

    The phone is also not recognising my garmin running match now either since I updated it.

    Anyone else had issues or am I being dim?

    I would say because it's not connecting with your Garmin as well that it was a problem with your phone. I have seen that there was a problem with IOS 10 and Bluetooth but I had thought it had been fixed

    I've had issues with my iphone 7 and parrot for past couple of months, it will pair but more often than not needs prompting.
    Good luck finding fix

    Are you on the latest IOS? A new version was released this week. Also, what radio is in your car? I struggled to connect my iPhone 6s to my previous Boost radio in a 2012 Countryman, until I discovered the right menus on the radio. It's a lot simpler on the Visual Boost on my new CM.
