With regards to Bluetooth calls, if a call is received on my Android phone while listening to my iPod will it switch over to Bluetooth automatically?

Yes. It will pause whatever you are playing, unless its a live station (that can't be paused), to switch to the incoming call; when you hang up it returns to whatever was playing before. As long as your phone paired correctly to your the device, it should work fine no matter what you are playing when you receive a call.

It will switch as long as you are listening to one of the inputs thru the isimple...but not thru the regular radio, such as the CD player or AM/FM radio.

I don't know about switching between 2 devices. If you're listening to music on an iPhone and receive a call on the iPhone then yes, it will switch to the call. But I don't know about switching from one device to another. When I had technical questions I emailed Rick Costello, who I believe is one of the managers with the actual manufacturer. His email address is: rick.costello@aampofamerica.com . I found him to be very helpful and very responsive. Hope this helps!

No, Bluetooth feature is just for "incoming" sound to device. In other words to play sound from phones, tablets, etc etc...

Thank you for your quick response. I have an older iPod that does not have Bluetooth.

Thanks for your inquiry. You may need to turn off bluetooth in one device and then turn bluetooth in the second. This is a fantastic sounding unit!

Dear Tom, Thank you for your question. So far , in the market, for Bluetooth speakers with hands-free function, if there is incoming calls, the ringtone will be the defaulted one, instead of your own ringtone. If this Bluetooth speaker didn't meet your exception and no use for you, we also accept returns. We are so sorry for the disappointment again.

Yes. You can play, pause, and forward/reverse from the radio, however the playlist/artist/song menu's list are limited from the radio screen while in blue tooth. Nice that the radio will automatically pause/mute music while making/taking calls and once call is ended, the music will resume with sound starting lower and raising up to previous level. I also use this for navigation (bluetooth) audio and works the same way. Wish apple came out with a video out cable/functionality, but am otherwise happy. One wish/gripe that may/can be addressed from a firmware standpoint is the radio screen when in bluetooth mode does not display the time. Yes.

You flip it open to answer it. We have Bluetooth in the car, it automatically connects.

There is a small sliding switch that is the main power on and off. Then you may answer your calls or play music on/off by depressing the Bluetooth main body.

Yes, if you are using your android or iphone it works great. There is a little delay when you click the next song arrow but that will happen when you are using Bluetooth. Otherwise great product, well worth the money spent.

Yes,you can make calls, and receive them, right through your stereo. Your music would pause and allow you to talk and also, once you turn your car off, the system would shut down, that's, if your stereo operates with the key (ignition) and your phone will pick up the Bluetooth automatically and your music from the phone will play once the car ignition is on again. Its really awesome! I'll give it thumbs up!

Hi..I bought this device for my wife as a Christmas gift. She loves it!! Once you pair the device to your phone via bluetooth, than you can start answering the calls with it. The number of the caller displays in the front LCD screen. You can talk and hear thru the device. Another good feature is the ability to hear music from your phone music player or pandora.

It will not affect that functionality if you are connected to that system. However, after installing this, you will have two Bluetooth systems in the car. You will have to go into your phone's Bluetooth menu and tell it which connection to use each time you want to switch. Your phone will use the device that is currently connected so, if you're using this device to stream music and a call comes in, it will want to answer through this device too. It's not that it's 'taking over' your handsfreelink. It's that you've specifically told your phone to connect to this device and not the other. You might want to consider purchasing a Bluetooth music interface and not one that does hands-free calling also. Those usually connect via a different profile, so your phone can distinguish between music and phone calls and you don't have to switch manually. Of course, you might not be able to find one that is specific to Acura vehicles. You might have to settle for one that plugs in your antenna jack.

It shouldn't matter what sort of phone you use once the Bluetooth connects. I've use two different types of Android phones on mine and it works beautifully.

Normally if your ipod has blue tooth function it should be ok, but not sure if your has this function or not.

Yes, you will press the bluetooth button on the speaker when you want to switch the device the speaker is paired with. It can link up to as many devices as you want but only one at a time.

Yes. The call takes precedence like it normally does when listening to music through your headphones.

In my case, if i am listening music via usb, when a call is received, the music mutes. I think will be the same with the ipod.
