Bluetooth Audio Skipping

Ever since I got iOS 8, I've been experiencing Bluetooth Audio skipping on both my CLA and my C400. Anyone experiencing these issues also?

An issue with many bluetooth systems. Hope for an update on your phone to resolve it. Your best bet is to uninstall and reinstall your device. If that doesn't help, go back to the first part of this comment Or better yet get a non apple phone LOL

IOS 8.1 is supposed to fix some connectivity issues that occurred in 8.0. Did you install 8.1? If that didn't help, the uninstall/reinstall advice is a solid suggestion.

I don't use Bluetooth streaming, I plug my iPhone 6 into the media interface with a USB cable but I've also noticed some slight skipping

Hey, thanks everyone for the posts.

I already updated to 8.1. Its strange because rather than skipping, I've been getting a slowdown - meaning the music will start to lag or lose its BPM. Really strange when you're listening and the pitch changes.

Oh well. Dealer said there's nothing they can do about it.
