bluetooth

I have a 2006 LS 430. My problem is with the transfer of phonebook material from an IPHONE 6. I had no trouble with an IPHONE 5 or a Blackberry but the IPHONE 6 cannot transfer the numbers. When will this be corrected?

You have to get your contacts to an Android and then to the car via a Bluetooth transfer app. Before 2010, this is the only way.

Appears the phone book will only hold a thousand numbers, also it does not display the name of an incoming call, just the number. Any suggestions please?
