    That being said, it could still be on Apples side, but it could also be that firmware or App changes need to happen to make it fully compatible with iPhone 6 and iOS.
    After all, As part of any Apple changes, Apps need to get updated to fully work with these changes, all developers acknowledge this, and possible this also applies to firmware
    I have checked with engineering and they confirmed there is nothing new they need to change specific for the iPhone 6 and latest IOS. The issue is on Apple's end and maybe Apple is trying to fix the BT issues that effected the most users first before they tackle smaller issues like those effecting ALP Connect. If you are having issues please go back to Control Module until apple gets the issue resolved.

    This is why I am glad I did NOT update any of my phones or tablets to the latest iOS!!! For once, not being an early adopter has paid dividends! Whew!!!!

    People, you need to read what is going on with IOS 8 and bluetooth before pointing fingers. It's not an ALP issue. Like it has been stated, "Google it"..

    I think you need to read the article you posted. First three paragraphs the guy says it was a manufacturer issue for him, that a manufacturer update solved, and don't jump to blame Apple. And later he says wait for 8.1 (which beta testers indicate fixed many issues). Some of us waited and are back here posting because 8.1 did not solve the ALP issue.

    It is only normal R&D/Validation process to determine what is not working rather than rely on Google anecdotal evidence. BRD had some "maybes" in his response. I'm looking for definitive answer as to what is going to happen. That requires ALP Engineering to collaborate with Apple on the failure mode and fix timing since 8.1 did not solve, in my opinion.

    I'm being patient by the way, I have not asked for a refund since I know this is a bug and will likely get resolved eventually. Not unhappy with the product or my decison to purchase. Just anxious to get what I bought working again.

    Dear OrlNme
    Please see extract below from the post you said before pointing fingers which contradicts yourself
    Quote:
    Before continuing on, remember that some devices, such as car systems, may have compatibility issues until an update is issued. For example, during the beta versions of iOS 8, my car frequently dropped during music playback. After a week or so of the official version being released, my car's system received an update that has since seemed to resolve the issue.

    In short, make absolutely certain iOS 8 is to blame and it isn't an issue that needs to be addressed with the accessory manufacturer. And if you're still sure your iPhone or iPad is the issue, continue on through the follow steps to troubleshoot the problem.
