That might explain it considering I have Hangouts disabled on my Galaxy S7. I will re-enable and try testing it out sometime (wife is driving my Android Auto card for next month or so, so might not be able to test it anytime soon). Thanks for the info warrenmr. Appreciated!

I still haven't figured out why it is doing this :( Hopefully someone eventually does.

Only workaround that I have found that works with single contact chats (not group chats) is to hit the voice command button and say "Whatsapp <persons name>" and it will then let me send a message to that person via WhatsApp. But yeah the command "Reply" still does not work for me either. At...

Not yet :( I gave up for now... learned to try to keep my phone close to fully charged before entering the car. I used to rely on charging my phone while driving to/from work, but now just resort to keeping it plugged in while at work mostly. Hopefully it will eventually be possible to use "Fast...

I'm not trying to draw that much juice from the head unit. Thats the point of the Y-cable. Draw the power from the Aukey Quick Charge 2.0 car charger ( https://www.amazon.ca/Dual-Port-Charger-Micro-USB-Qualcomm-Certified/dp/B00NM6HTDK?tag=hawk-future-ca-20&ascsubtag=UUacUvbUpU5488850 ). And the...

Thanks for the reply. Yes my Escape does not have fast charging, it just has a "high output" charger lol.. I am pretty sure it is 1 amp because if it was 2 amps it would charge a lot faster. Older USB ports were likely 500ma... so while it is higher than before it is still not enough when...

I have been using Android Auto in a 2017 Ford Escape (Canada) for the past month or so. It is working well, except that the 1A USB ports in my vehicle do not supply enough power to charge my Samsung Galaxy S7 (it charges VERY slow). I have read elsewhere that a Y-splitter cable might work (data...
