Fatal Flaw with Text Support (2019.40.50.1)

[640k]

the wrong message happens often and i'm starting to wonder if it has anything to do with the RCS or not. i received a message on the car's display the other day, from a friend that sent me the message several months ago. what a weird thing to do.

You don't have to tap on the screen to interact with the text support. Simply push in the right wheel scroll knob to read/reply/send messages instead of "tapping screen..."

I've got a Pixel 3XL and have this issue. So there's no way to report this bug to Tesla? Seems pretty lame they have no feedback capability.

My car tells me I have a message, can read it to me but when I look on my phone it was a message I received LONG ago.

What model phone are you using when this happens? All reports I've seen of this problem have been on Google Pixels.

This is more of an issue with Google Messenger or Android RCS implementation rather than Tesla. I have this same issue in my MX *BUT* I also have this exact same issue in our Ford Focus Electric with a completely different implementation using Android Auto.

My biggest issue with the feature is there doesn't seem to be a way to send a new message from the UI if you didn't receive a message first. (maybe there is a voice command?) Like if I'm picking someone up and I just want to text them "I'm here" real quick, there doesn't seem to be a way to do that. I have to pull my phone out or use my watch.

Voice command does it

What's the command? I tried "Send text to <name>" and it didn't work.

Should just be "text bob" (or whoever)
