Android Auto Quit after Update Text /fixed

[Lambert87]

Had a great day with my Bronco, did some serious playing and learning off road. Then drove into town and got a message from Ford Pass that my Bronco was now "up to date"

Everything seemed great, Android Auto was less laggy and all was right in the world.

Picked up friends to go to dinner and when I got out and shut the truck off and then got back in Android Auto was connecting on my phone but the bronco keeps saying "enable app projection" when I hit the "ok" it goes back to a little swirling icon then times out

What I've tried:
Power off/on phone and bronco

Disconnect and forget devices on phone and bronco

Connect phone to bronco using USB cable

The Android Auto logo will not populate at the bottom of the screen, my Ford Pass app works, I can lock unlock etc. But cannot use my phone.

Any ideas? Anyone else get this update?

I'm not sure if I got the update, but Android Auto has been acting up the past day. It's very slow to come up, the playlist has to be completely restarted every time, and the playing song has to be paused and restarted in order to actually hear anything. It was working great...

Sometimes you have to go in to your phone and allow access again for Android auto to connect. Did you try that? It's something like "allow device to access data"or something like that.

Yeah, it asked for all the permissions both on the bronco and on the phone, I ok'd everything....

Its really acting like an Apim issue

Well, this morning I woke up, did a full reset on my phone. Walked out to the Bronco and as I turned it on everything connected and started working.... Even the features that were greyed out yesterday.

I'm not sure what happened here, whether the bronco had to set overnight connected to my wifi to fix itself or if it was something with my phone's update, either way, a day later were in business.

Thanks for the input y'all!
