AW3 Lte AirPods call volume

[earthdog]

So I made my first call today using my AW3 LTE but damn if I can figure out how to increase the volume with the AirPod while on the call. The digital crown doesn't increase it like in Music. Any ideas?

Also though I could hear my caller through the AirPods is it using the mic on the AirPod for the call? The caller said they couldn't hear me well.

When connected to AirPods, I would think it would use the mics in those. Was it windy ? The AirPods can be sensitive to wind.

How did you set up the AirPods ? You can select using R or L for mic or auto select.

Volume will be set by the volume switches on the phone.

I was in my car with the windows closed and its set to auto for the Mic. The volume being set via phone would negate the need for an LTE Watch... There has to be some how to adjust the call volume when using the AW3 via LTE.

If the call is on the AW, there is volume control on the watch screen.

Airpods have all kinds of things it can do with double-taps, but I fail to understand why changing volume is not one. I do that more than anything else (like, siri or changing tracks).
