All of the sudden last week my driving mode won't engage. It was working flawlessly for the previous month I've had the phone. Any suggestions? I've restarted the phone, cleared the assist app cache and memory and did a force stop as well, but nothing works.

Perhaps a stupid question, but are location services enabled and GPS on?

I've never gotten driving mode to work. Home Assist works great and reads/replies to texts allows answering calls by voice only. Driving mode never engages even with a good bt connection in the car for calls and music streaming. Gps is on, Location is high accuracy, and Google location services are off. I may try repairing with the car since Assist has been updated a few times.

Driving mode is actually presented from the Google Play API if memory serves me. Last year they added activities automatically detected, such as walking, biking and driving. I also believe driving mode is ONLY based on GPS as it must estimate your speed to determine the activity.

Not a stupid question. GPS is on, at high accuracy, as are reporting. And I have the phone connected to my cars bluetooth also

Anyone find an answer to this? My Moto X has been behaving the same way in the past couple of days. Driving mode was working flawlessly for months and now it's simply not detecting anything. Location Services are set to High Accuracy, and I made sure driving mode is turned on and Motorola Contexual Services has access to my location. I also made sure I have the most up-to-date version of Assist installed. I've tried clearing the cache and clearing data entirely and nothing seems to be working.

I've had the same problem since the update. Driving mode always worked and i used it all the time. All settings correct, cleared cache, etc. And the "home" mode has never worked.

Home mode is what's hit or miss for me. I've been home for 3 hours and I've watched it click off twice on its own.

I got driving mode to work again. I cleared the cache partition (https://motorola-global-portal.custh...p/30,6720,8696) and opened Assist, disabled driving mode, hit the back key to exit Assist, opened it again, and re-enabled driving mode. I did these right after each other, so not sure which one actually fixed it, but it was working now.

I got driving mode to work again.

That's helpful, thanks. When you say "working" - can you explain please? Was it not engaging at all, or not working correctly?

Mine reads aloud incoming texts and replies to same, but for outbound texts initiated via "OK Google Now" it only asks me to confirm what's shown on-screen. I don't think the latter ones are getting handled by Assist, and I'm not sure if they're even supposed to.

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: there's an update to Assist in the Play Store today. "Couldn't hurt..."

I tried this again, still won't work. So frustrating.
