Pairing Iphone 6S for messages

Anyone had luck pairing an iphone 6S to receive text messages? I have a 2013 X5M and I was able to receive text messages with my iphone 5.

I dont have the 6s but able to do with the 6. One setting I forgot was to enable push messages from options. after that, I removed phone from bluetooth car and re-paired it - works great now - hope this helps...

Not sure what you are referring to with "options and push messages" Is that in the car pressing options when you are in the telephone on Idrive. if so I don't have that option with mine

that is on your phone settings - go to notifications and make sure that within the messages option, show in notification center is checked.

Yeah I had that checked. Thanks for your response and help. I called BMW genius toll free number and with 6S under the Bluetooth settings on the phone when the car is selected under the information icon show notifications has to be checked. Again this is on the phone
