I believe that it only works with Android phones where it will read text message and email to you.

Coding isn't going to help. Even Blackberries work better then Iphones in this regard

It works just fine with iPhone. You just need to enable "notifications" on your iPhone so it sends the messages over to your iDrive. But I'm pretty sure it only does txt/iMessages.

Correct. When I get a message I go to the Office menu and select messages. You can then select it to have it read the message.

I am sure this is on the forum somewhere... How do I get my Samsung Note 4 Android to send TXT and email to the idrive? Do I need Connected drive?
Thanks!

All functions work on my Blackberry so I do have the option set up correctly in my car. What iPhone and iOS version are you or what else did you have to do in order to get SMS messages to work?
