I don't know about iPhone, but on Android, whatever picture a contact has on my phone, appears on the car.

Follow this link, and see if the applied photos carry over to your car. If they don't, then I can't help and you'll have to wait for someone on iOS to chime in.

I've got the newer 7.5 but contact images appear from my iPhone 7. Don't remember having to do anything to get them though.

Could be that its a MIB-1 unit... lots of things on the MIB-1 didn't seem to work quite how you expected them to... it was like a half finished project.

Hi all,

I've had both 7R and 7.5 GTI and both worked perfectly with iPhone. it just picks up from the pic in your phone, go in to contacts, in to edit and then choose a pic. car should then show that pic when you're on a call, really simple!
