I want to use it as a speaker with my cell phone GPS when driving as the speaker on my phone is not loud enough. Can I use it for that purpose?

I have not used it well. I'm sure you can not, the device is to ring via USB, radio and amplifier to be connected as in this case .... if you want you need to buy speakers for what you want ....

From a computer yes from a cell phone no, a blue tooth speaker will better fit your needs.

Not sure, but I don't see why not. I love the loudness of this. I use it when I think people aren't paying attention, and may turn in front of me. I honk at people along the street, and they look around wondering where that came from :-). Ed

To be honest, I didn't try it in the car, but I tried it just about everywhere else. It's a novelty item and the sound is way subpar, so I imagine if your car is anything like my Toyota Corolla, basic road noise would drown out anything the speaker produced. It's just my opinion, but I really wouldn't buy it for anything more than a party novelty.

Yes, it is possible. You can use your smartphone vía Bluetooth and listen into this speaker

I suppose you could if you had a splitter but I don't know for sure. It is fairly loud by itself. If you want something louder I'd suggest buying a larger speaker instead.

Hey Larry~you sure can, like if you want to use your smartphone's GPS? Works great for that feature. This fits in the "AC vent of your vehicle". Hope this helps in your decision making process ;)

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

As long as you device (iPod or whatever else you are using as source material) is near the speaker, you should be able to do this. I plan to do the same in my yard, and tested it out. Seems to work just fine.

It should work. I think you need to consider more about the thickness.I use a TOMTOM with a thick speaker at the back. I need to hold it very carefully.

Your phone will work but the volume is loo low to be useful. I bought the car kit speaker but placed in garbage after 1 week.

I haven't tried to use the speaker as a speaker phone, so I'm not sure. You'd probably be able to hear your caller through the speaker, but that's about it. It doesn't have a microphone port (at least I haven't seen one), so I doubt you'll be able to have a two way conversation using the speaker. I'll have to check to make sure though, I'll update you if I find out more. Thanks for your question.

Yes, that is mainly how I use this product. It is not sufficient as an added laptop speaker.

You could use it for that, but you'd need a outlet to run the speaker, so if you were just staying ay home it would work but if your talking about taking it on the go then I don't think so..

From what I've read, it's usually better to have a little more power going to a speaker than not enough. Just don't crank the volume all the way up and you should be fine.

No. I use it to make and receive phone calls when driving. For that purpose it is excellent. The sound quality is good on both ends. There is plenty of volume on in coming calls.

I have only used it for the iPod and cannot try the iPhone as I have a waterproof case on it. I imagine it will work a bit like having the sound of the ringtone and speaker go through a GPS in the car. I.e., it should amplify some if you increase the volume.

It your wifi connection is strong enough and the area is small enough for the speaker to fill it, it should be OK. You might have to crank up the volume depending on the ambient noise. In an open area, I doubt you will be satisfied with the volume, unless you just want it for background.
