I've experienced where Waze doesn't update the location, but that seems to be an Apple thing to conserve battery. I had to change the permissions of Waze to always have location for it to work properly. I have also noticed that the Waze speedometer is much faster than what I am driving, it always gives me a beep that I am over 15 km over speed limit when I am only 5-6 over.

I really only use 2 sources, Spotify and another app from a local radio station. I have seen this situation happen more on Android devices than Apple. Hopefully this gets resolved with a long overdue update from Lexus.

I had to stop using Waze because it would randomly freeze sometimes and not update while I was driving.

The issue with Spotify seems a little more serious with my vehicle now. With or without my phone being connected (after no sound on Spotify) I won’t have sound on my actual radio or even when I say “hey Lexus”. Maybe the issue isn’t Spotify but my actual vehicle. I already know that I can’t take it to the dealer without it doing it.

Thanks so much for the tip - I made the change in settings.

I found a troubleshoot from Spotify online over the weekend. So far, it has completely fixed the no audio issue. Below are the steps they posted (I’m sure android is similar)

If you have an iPhone:

1: In Spotify and click the gear/settings
2: Go to storage: delete downloads and clear cache
3: In phone settings, general, iPhone storage
4: Choose Spotify, offload app, then delete app
5: Turn off iPhone for several minutes
6: Redownload the Spotify app

I haven’t had a single issue since following these steps when it used to happen daily.
