I have a 2016 Journey SXT with UConnect 8.4. There are a few functions I would like for it that I haven't found any way to do:
1. Have it respond to 'OK Google' and answer questions. Especially on long drives this is nice. We are a Google household (Google Home, ChromeCast, Android phones, etc) and would appreciate being able to easily do this in the car. Even holding your cell phone in Ontario is a $1000 distracted driving fine + demerit points + 3 day license suspension.
2. When I had a Windows 8 phone, I could, with this vehicle, dictate responses to text messages. How can I get this working with newer Android phones? I have a Samsung Galaxy S8 Edge currently. Unfortunately, my employer is likely replacing that with a new iPhone this year.
Those two features would be great. Anyone have any luck getting that to work?
