Lucid Pure
For some time, I have been unable to listen to my Sirius subscription in my Lucid, but I can in my other car. Now the Bluetooth connection to my iPhone doesn't work either, and despite trying to reboot from my Lucid screen, it doesn't come back. When I check the settings on my iPhone, it says it is connected to Lucid. Any suggestions?

What type of phone?
 
IPhone 16 Pro Max. The connection worked for a long time until recently, when the problem I described began.

Please post a screenshot of your Bluetooth page on the phone.
 
Did you reboot both devices?
 
I have been having BT connectivity problems with my iPhone 17e in recent weeks. I have to toggle BT on the phone to get to reconnect to my temporary Subaru and my LG Gram Laptop each time I try to connect. This also happened on my Lexus ES 300h before I sold it on May 1. I am concerned it is going to start happening to my Lucid AT when I return home from a 7 week trip.
 
Here's a screenshot of the Bluetooth settings on my iPhone.

You'll notice there are two Lucid entries in there. The one that is at the very top that says connected is for your mobile key. The one toward the bottom that says not connected is for your Bluetooth and CarPlay. I would suggest you delete that bottom one entirely and then go into the car and delete the phone from the car in settings, then reconnect everything and see how things go afterward. Please report back.
 
I deleted the bottom entry. I go to settings and get the message: To connect your device wirelessly, turn on Bluetooth connectivity. When I try all I get is the little white ring circling.
 
I’m having the same issue and not able to connect at all
 
FWIW, pretty much the only issue I've had in months with my 2025 AT (2.9.0) is occasionally Bluetooth "hangs" when I get in the car (always use Carplay). When it tells me something like "turn Bluetooth on to use Carplay" I notice Bluetooth shows off in the pilot panel (which I have never explicitly turned off). Hitting the slider to turn it on results in a spinning white circle that eventually fails to turn on. No amount of retries helps. But, doing a Air logo (or x-mic-brake) reboot immediately fixes it (so much so Carplay comes up almost before the Infotainment completes its reboot).

It's happened maybe four'ish times total over a period of maybe 6 weeks. So it's been a mild irritant at most and is easily fixed in 90 seconds. That may be something to try for people where suddenly Bluetooth goes inactive (although that most likely won't help folks that show it is active and have other connectivity issues). But, if you have the "little white ring circling" when attempting to turn on Bluetooth, it might fix it - at least for a while.

The only other time Carplay failed to load (Bluetooth showed on in the car) I rebooted my iPhone and it came right back.
 
Thank you for the information. It worked.

This is the exact problem I have about every 3 days on average. Most of the time a reboot solves it, but sometimes it takes multiple reboots. I've always had issues with both Sirius/XM and my iPhone, but this new BT problem just started with the latest update.
 
IMO, BT issues are far more common than I would like to admin. Whenever the issues pop up, I simply turn off and turn on the Bluetooth on my phone. Everything starts working again. I usually know when the software in the car is glitching and requires a reboot. I have noticed similar to what RAF42 said above that sometimes a reboot doesn't solve a problem and potentially requires a second one.

Although rebooting the iPhone isn't too time consuming (and is useful to do every week or two) you should be able to get the same CarPlay result by turning off Bluetooth on the iPhone and then back on
