2016 ENTUNES, SEND TEXT MSG?

Is there a way to send and/or answer text messages by voice with android phone.
I searched found videos but looks like all there is is the list of responses built into the head unit.
if I can say call fred then why not say text fred?

 

My 2018 Entune system also lacks the capability to send a reply text (IPhone).

It's a great reason to upgrade.

 

Has your car been upgraded to carplay or AA?

 

what do you mean upgraded, new head unit?
what is AA?

 

Just replaced my head unit!!! Alpine 7” apply car play. Glad I did it. Entune sucks

 

No, not new head unit. Use Carplay module to upgrade Carplay on the factory head unit. and AA is Android Auto.
Of course, it is also ok if you replace to a new head unit. Both methods should solve your problem.

 

is Carplay I Phone? I have android!
a big plus for me with current head unit is adding a pic to my screen.

 

Which one did you go with and do you have the JBL system? Been looking to upgrade my 2018

 

Yes I do have the JBL system. Went with the Alpine 7” screen so glad I did works awesome
