Our Subaru nags you to check your text messages constantly while driving. Can’t be disabled if you want to use carplay.

Every time I've connected my phone through Carplay I have to explicitly give the car permission to access my texts. If you refuse that permission, does the car still nag you about texts?

EDIT: Maybe it's only Android Auto that makes you explicitly give the car access to texts. I don't remember if my Apple workphone asks for permission.
