Can you use your iphone as a speakerphone when this speaker is attached??

I would never have thought to use it that way... I just tried it, and no, you cannot use it as a speaker phone.

As long as your iPhone or iPad is connected to the internet and its Bluetooth is invoked, then yes. In fact, any sounds that come across your iPhone or iPad will come through the speakers, i.e. tones from texts, phone calls, notifications, etc... Bluetooth connection to the speakers is the key. I pulled up a you tube music video at my dining room table and bluetoothed it to the JBL speakers in the kitchen. Pretty cool!

I just checked it by calling my sis. It does work on phone calls but NOT with the iphone speaker phone turned on. It also works on Siri. To get better quality sound for both your iphone 5 and speaker do the following:On iphone main page touch settings.Scroll down to Music and touch.Touch EQ.Then pick a category to your liking.I have mine set on Bass Booster.Hope all of this helps you. I really like this speaker.

While paired, my iPhone still rings, and the ring does not come through the speaker system, nor does the phone call if I answer it.However, the dings I receive when I get an email play through the speaker system, instead of on my iPhone.The speaker does not have a microphone - it is a speaker only.

Yes. There are three of us who use this speaker and we are able to use it with three different iPhones and an iPad. Hope that helps!

It allows you to hear calls over speakers. I personally don't use it because although I can hear well the person on the call, the person says I sound far away. When you want to make a call, the iPhone gives you the choice of using the Bluetooth or iphone itself.

You sure can. If you take your iPad somewhere and leave your speaker at home, it will turn off automatically as it will be out of Bluetooth range. So when you get home, turn the speaker on again and it will find and connect. I use mine mostly for my iPad. I have several speakers but none have the sound, charge life, or ease of use that this one does.

No, it functions only as a standalone speaker. My phone has voice command so I use that instead.

No, at least the one I have the older iPod/iPhone connection, even with the older phone, it is not posible to plug in if you phone has a case. I do enjoy the speakers both from my iPad and my new iphone through Bluetooth. Be aware you will need the remote to pair every time you switch devices.

I have my IPhone hooked to the speaker via blue tooth and play music while not on a call (Pandora) when a call comes in, it silences the music and rings (just like the phone normally does.) Music resumes when I hang up.

You will be able to control the volume output from the iphone and not the speakers

Hi there, unfortunately you cannot use your Iphone with these speakers because it has a usb plug. It is only compatible with a laptop or pc.

Cindy, I'm not sure I understand your question. I mean, how else would you listen to music on an iPhone, surely not through the phone's speaker? Of course you can use your headphones to listen whilst in this case.

No you cant, because once you plugin the microphone the phone will automatically detect it as a headphones/earphone.
