My question does not apply to Android Auto or Apple CarPlay. When receiving text messages on my phone, ability to "hear" the message. When I do, it lists the full time (I think compared to Greenwich meantime), who from, and lists everyone that received the message (group texts). Then finally, I hear the message.

Is there the ability to have it just state the message? I really don't want to hear the rest of it.

I think all this extra info is new or some option changed as I don't recall it doing that previously.

Thanks
Cindy

I can't answer your question now, however, when I first received my 2021, I found it in settings somewhere. It worked and the only thing you heard was who it was from and the message. Since a system upgrade, I can't find how to cut that off. I don't need to know the time down to the seconds of a message. It's annoying and I'll be watching in case someone has the answer.
