Connecting Smart Phones

[norfolkRX]

I've been trying to connect my 2025 smartphone to my 2019 Impreza. It needs both a Bluetooth and USB connection to display Googe Maps' quantity of data. Occasionally I can get it to connect to the car but it doesn't last long and fails with a message something like "Connection failed - remove cable and re-connect". The cable is brand new so I'm suspecting the USB x2 sockets on the car. I quite like Google Maps aerial view as a SatNav on the car's main screen.

Has anyone else tried this or got a fix for it?

Thanks

Finally, I've managed to fix the mobile not connecting issue. It turns out that the upper USB port had been abused by the previous owner so it didn't hold the cable succurely resulting in the map app on the phone disconnecting all the time. Fixed it with a good quality USB A to C cable and using the unused lower USB socket (under the display unit) instead.
