When I have GPS on, will I be able to hear the directions through the bluetooth only?

On my S4, that's the way it works. There's also an app you can install, that's adds some more customization to the voice and other features. You don't need the app for GPS, however.

It will talk you through via Bluetooth. It also has a video jack for input, just not sure if it will play the video from gps. I would think so, I just have not tried.

yes it will because i use it sometimes too...also everytime i use my GPS on my phone. I plug in the aux so i can hear it through the speakers

One of the best features is the fact that you can speak to the GPS. Doesn't always understand my Caribbean accent but it works well. I've used this before I paired my cellphone to it so I'm not sure if this a Bluetooth feature or not

I bought it for my wife. She loves the GPS but doesn't use the voice command. When talking to someone in the car, the GPS will join the conversation. Sorry I can't help with the voice command.

This is only a GPS transmitting device. Any navigation feutures depend on the apps installed on your iDevice.

I bought a new GPS which is very good, I like the maps and traffic updates. Bluetooth function works but is a little bit noisy most of the time.

One way I think that you can use FM transmiier. Connect it to your GPS and listen direction/Mp3 on FM!!

Another thing about Koolertron: if you are listening music with Bluetooth connection and open the GPS, music doesn't work. GPS only works with radio at the same time

Bluetooth yes. GPS no. I believe some kind of GPS dongle is available for it though.

Yes it will if your not playing music and have the garmin app open on your phone, my google maps app doesn't verbally give me directions, but what ever is broadcasting on you phone wether it be music a phone call or directions the jabra will play thru your speakers

It's been a while since I used the device, but as I recall I don't think you have to use bluetooth to connect to it. You might try rebooting your ipod after it's plugged into the cradle. Turning off the ipod's wifi definitely helps with gps signal acquisition. Once it gets the signal, you can turn wifi back on. Dual has an app you can download that will tell you when the cradle has picked up the gps signal, and I think the app also gives you some troubleshooting tips.

I found out (after I bought it of course) that only the models that have bluetooth have voice recognition, it seemed odd to have something like that tied to having bluetooth, I have the one with lifetime maps + traffic (no bluetooth) and don't have the feature.

Yes you can still listen to your music, once it gives directions your music will be automatically lowered down so you can hear the directions clearly.

I got a new Garmin 2460LMT with Bluetooth. Awesome, but I had trouble hearing people when I was on the highway so had to return it. Bummer.

I am not a technician, but I'm pretty sure there is no navigation or gps option on this model, one reason why its so cheap. I can hook my smartphone up thru the auxiliary input and using the gps on my phone screen the voice commands play thru the cars speakers. I think thats as close as you can get without spending a ton of money on a unit thats navigation ready or the gps adapter kit they sell for this model.
