Just curious, did we figure out if there are two different versions.
I ask because my 18 Malibu refused to allow the apps to be used over bluethooth even with bluethooth teathering enabled. This results in me having to use my phone as a hot spot.
I have an app called carspot to enable the hotspot automatically once the bluethooth connection has been made.

There are many MyLink systems AFAICT (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MyLink). Seems clear that GM doesn't know a thing about such systems nor programming really. That's why they have not 1 nor 2 but 3 other companies. And it's clear they know nothing about versioning stuff and software developer. IOW they are all over the map. MyLink is a system with shitty voice recognition, no way to update apps let alone get apps, no way to update POI data, etc. It's a system that's dead on arrival. That's why AA is so great. It keeps getting better. I seriously don't know why people bother with that system. OK, I understand you're hardware deprived with the 14's and 15's but there are solutions, some fairly cheap. It is my #1 reason why I held out for my 16. And even then I had to wait for a firmware update...
