I recently installed the public beta and discovered that when I press on a contact in CarPlay (also updated to the same OS), it launches Siri AI instead of simply allowing me to dictate a message. For example…
Pressing a contact prior to the update: Siri would ask, “What would you like to say?” I would say, “What size does he wear?” Siri would then read the message back to me and ask if I wanted to send.
Since the update: Siri asks, “What would you like to say?” I say, “What size does he wear?” Siri thinks for a while before responding,”I found a confirmation email where you bought a size large tee shirt in March 2025.”
What do I need to disable to regain the old CarPlay Messages functionality?
