I know, it's a very strange, but real problem.
With a driving app installed and running, I still receive every text that's sent to me. The driving app detects all texts that are sent to me from anyone not in my family plan, and does what it's expected to do... that is notify me of the text and send an automatic reply back to the sender informing them that I'm driving.
The issue is only with the family members within my plan. When a family member sends a text my phone receives it as normal, however the driving app does not seem to detect it. There is no apparent reaction at all by the app to these incoming text, and no auto reply is sent. Since my family members are the ones most likely to text me while I'm driving, this behavior is a deal breaker for me using a driving app, unless I can get the issue resolved.
There must be something unique about in-plan texts, or some family setting in my phone that is causing this issue. I can't think of any other explanation. I installed the app on my wife's phone and sent her a text from mine, with the same results. So it's not some issue specific only to my phone.
