Default Bluetooth phone/audio not Auto connect

Hey guys, my 2020 defender doesn't come with carplay. The Bluetooth audio and phone doesn't seem to auto connect after i start the car. I have reset pivi and updated to the latest version 3.2.0 already. Anyone know how to fix it?

I had this problem. Turn wifi on on your phone and if you have the car wifi network, connect to that. (and set it to auto-connect). Once I did that it connects straight away. In my case this is what made CarPlay (wireless) work for me when it would not work at all.

Full disclosure: I have NO idea why this works and it couldn't just bluetooth to the car...

My car doesn't come with carplay as standard. I mean the connection through Bluetooth phone and audio doesn't auto reconnect after i start the car. Everytime i have to connect it manually which is frustrating.

Were you ever able to resolve this? I have been having the same problem since installation of pivi ver 3.0
