This Accessory is Incompatible With Your Device
…even though it’s worked exactly as designed for the past two-plus years since iPhone launch.
Also known as the “Gratuitous Solicitation for Accessory Purchase” dialog. At first, I fully bought into the notion that Apple just wants to make sure that everyone knows that cell phones don’t have to make that horrible noise in your car/desktop speakers. Very nice of them. But, truth be told, I’m very much at peace with the minor GSM noise I get from time to time. I’m also very happy with my self-installed car audio system, and don’t want to have to pull apart my dashboard and console again, this time with the sole purpose of killing that ridiculous warning.
Give me a preference to toggle. I promise to blame you less for the GSM noise than I currently do for the hatred I have for that dialog. By the time I die, I think I will have tallied up several days worth of wasted time dismissing that redonkulous dialog.
