2016 A3 with MMI and Navigation - cannot send text with iPhone

[rowlands57]

This is extremely frustrating as every other car I have with Bluetooth allows me to access Siri for sending simple messages. To add to the frustration if anyone sends me a text with emoji's I cannot read them on the MMI.

Is Audi ever going to step up and fix this extremely annoying problem? Seriously, I would have never bought the car had I known of this problem. I cannot believe that my 2012 Mazda does a better job with this.

Thank you.

This makes me feel bad for people who work in customer service. Emojis? Really? Some real first world problems here.

I have been in contact with my resources. There is no plan to provide this feature to older cars that do not support Siri eyes free or Apple CarPlay.
