Are there any Sync apps for Android?

Also, how do I stream music through bluetooth?

Hmm? Still can't find it. I have a 2010 and i haven't ever updated sync. Did it come in an update maybe?

The Sync Apps button I use most is in the Phone menu. Could be in media too, but that is what I use to receive destinations from Google Maps.

HVee,
You can stream bluetooth audio straight from your phone (anything from netflix to music stored on the phone). You go to media and where it says source (probably "Line In"), click that button and it should switch to BTS.

*Side note, I have connection problems if I leave the system in BTS mode when I'm not using it. IE, when your done with BTS, make sure you switch it to Line IN before swithcing to other sources such as radio. It doesn't happen all the time, and the time it takes to disconnect is completely random but still annoying. The weird part is that the BT Audio still works, just disconnects the phone control/calling from the system. Not sure if its just my phones, but it did it with my DX as well as RAZR.

Not sure. What version do you have? I believe mine is... V4.0.2

Rhapsody & other apps

So,

I'm updated to 4.0.2 on my 2012, and I cannot for the life of me get Rhapsody and Pandora to be recognized as mobile apps with my iPhone 5 running 6.1.4

I can stream them via Bluetooth, but I cannot get Sync to recognize them as apps so I can control through the head unit.

anyone have any suggestions?
