Reading texts on screen of 2012 212 with iPhone?

Anybody know how to set up so that text can be read on the screen with a iPhone? I know it's possible, I remember with my old Galaxy phone it would show the texts a few years back, just can't figure out how to do it with my iPhone, where it says text's at the bottom of the screen is not highlighted so I cannot click on it? There must be some setting on the phone I need to set to allow this?

on the iphone go into Settings -> Bluetooth -> Select MB Bluetooth by pressing the i ->Toggle on Show Notifications and Sync Contacts.

That should do it.
