2015- ML350 4 matic. whenever i get into car (eg- after going into store, starting car for first time, etc) i always need to manually "connect last device". even if i turn the car off and back on i need to manually select "connect last device." my device is iphone 12pro. i see no settings in my iphone that will enable an automatic connection. i have the most current ios on the phone. it is the only device that i use in the car. is there a way of overriding this and set it up to "connect last device" automatically?

test with other device to duplicate (or not) problem. Preferably older iPhone or Android device.

Can't opine until a non-iOS device is tried. Try a laptop to stream music.

My car does the same.

I just press the knob and all's good.

No great hassle.

I just wish it would read my Text messages.

Do you have magnets on your phone or tablet? I've noticed that my Command behaves differently when I start the car if I have the phone on a magnetic mount. It will default to the phone app. It will connect successfully to the phone. If I don't have the magnet anywhere near the phone, Command will initialize in the last app used. My Command is older NTG 2.5 in X164.

completely different system.
