I was ordering how Bluetooth phone calls are handled while driving. I have my phone paired to my car for phone calls and music playback. But if I also have my phone paired a watch, does the call come in on the watch or the car?

I think it depends on how you answer or initiate the call...I don't think it would make much sense to use the watch in this situation, especially since the speaker is likely not loud enough to hear over the sound of the road/traffic/driving/etc...

I had this same question, in my 2012 BMW where the iPhone is paired with the car, all calls are still handled through the car. My guess is you can probably answer on the watch as well but I never do.

Thanks everyone! That makes sense, I'm glad to hear that the car can still take the call. Now if my watch would just ship already, I was charged this morning.
