Issue
The voice feature on the BT3 & BT1 remotes may stop working if the remote is operating in IR mode instead of Bluetooth mode. The voice feature requires a Bluetooth connection to function properly.
Solution
To enable the voice feature, you need to pair your BT1 remote via Bluetooth:
-
Access Bluetooth Settings
- Navigate to Launcher Home screen > Control Panel (top right settings icon) > Bluetooth
-
Put Remote in Pairing Mode
- Press and hold the OK + Menu buttons simultaneously on your remote
- Continue holding until the white LED on the remote starts to blink
- Release the buttons once the LED begins blinking
-
Complete Pairing
- Wait for the Formuler device to detect the remote signal
- The device will automatically pair with the remote
Additional Notes
- If you're also experiencing issues with Sirius XM channels not working after an update, this may be a separate issue that requires additional troubleshooting
- The remote must be in Bluetooth mode (not IR mode) for voice features to function
