Sigh,
spent a little time with the DD today, so the carplay audio skipping is getting worse, and today I actually watched it drop connection to my phone. reconnected and it worked great for about 3 minutes, audio starts dropping, connection dropped. I dont know whats going on but it seems to be getting worse. this is on two different iphones, one is a 12, the other a 12 pro, latest iOS 14.5.1. Have an old nexus kicking around somewhere, going to pair it tomorrow and test if android auto does the same.
