Make my phone the default
Hi,
I have had issues when several people are in the car with me and their phones are known to the car. MBUX will default to another phone for car/Android play rather than mine. Even though, I have a profile, it’s selected and my phone is linked to the profile. I am on MBUX 2.6.
I have looked and found advice to define phone as a « priority » phone in the devices menu but I cannot find that option anywhere?
have you guys managed to solve this ?

In our cars it goes to the last connected phone. If she gets in before me (and the car is on), it connects to her phone. In three of our cars. The other one her phone is not setup in. In our MB Airstream RV the third party system does allow me to select preferred phone.

Thank you @OldManAndHisCar , so I guess it is last connected which is a bit silly if you ask me when you offer profiles setup. I do hope they fix this in future update but seeing I had the same on my 2020 GLB… I am not too hopeful.
