Check the Bluetooth section on your phone and be certain it shows Lexus GS or Car Multimedia.
If it displays "Car Accessory System" you have a substandard pairing that will give you trouble.
When pairing be sure to wait for the phone's Bluetooth section to display the car's correct device
name before tapping the banner.

Other standard methods apply, when did you last turn your phone Completely stone cold dark dead off?

You should also go to https://drivers.lexus.com/lexusdrivers/ Among the useful features is under the
Technology Tab, Multimedia Updates. I already checked for you and the 2018 GS 350 w/Nav does not
currently have a DYI update but you ought to check here again down the road.
