Welcome to our step-by-step guide on how to use a Bluetooth speaker for hands-free calling! In this guide, we will walk you through the process of setting up your Bluetooth speaker to make and receive phone calls effortlessly, freeing your hands for other tasks. Stay tuned for easy-to-follow instructions on how to stay connected while on the go!
Pair your Bluetooth speaker with your phone
To pair your Bluetooth speaker with your phone, first, turn on your Bluetooth speaker. Many devices have a dedicated power button for this. After turning it on, place your speaker into pairing mode. This may involve holding down a specific button for a few seconds until you see a flashing light or hear a specific sound pattern that indicates it’s ready to pair.
Next, grab your phone and proceed to the Bluetooth settings. Locate and tap on the Bluetooth option to access the settings. Once there, initiate a search for available devices by clicking on the “Scan” or “Search for devices” button. Your phone will then display a list of discoverable Bluetooth devices in the vicinity. From the list that appears, select your Bluetooth speaker by tapping on it. If asked, confirm the pairing by accepting any prompts that appear on your phone. Once successfully connected, you should hear a confirmation sound from your speaker, indicating that it is now paired with your phone.
Make sure your speaker is the default audio device
- Go to your phone’s Settings and tap on Bluetooth.
- Look for your Bluetooth speaker in the list of available devices and tap on it to Connect. Make sure the connection is successful and that your phone shows it’s connected to the speaker.
- Next, navigate back to Settings and select Sounds or Sound & vibration.
- Tap on Advanced or Media to locate the default audio output settings.
- In the Audio section, you should see an option for Audio Output or Default Sound Output Device. Tap on it.
- Choose your Bluetooth speaker from the list of audio output devices available.
- Make a test call to ensure that the audio is now being routed through your Bluetooth speaker for calls.
- You may need to disconnect and reconnect the Bluetooth speaker or restart your phone if the setting doesn’t take effect immediately.
- Enjoy crystal-clear calls with your Bluetooth speaker!
By following these steps, you can ensure that your Bluetooth speaker is set as the default audio output device for calls on your phone. This will make sure that whenever you make or receive calls, the audio is directed to your Bluetooth speaker, providing you with a seamless and hands-free experience.
Test the connection
To test the connection between your phone and the Bluetooth speaker, make a test call. Tap on the phone icon, dial a phone number, and press call. Make sure the speaker’s Bluetooth is turned on and its connection established with the phone. Hold the phone close to the speaker.
Listen for the ringing sound through the speaker. Once the call is connected, speak through the phone and check if the audio is coming through the Bluetooth speaker. Adjust the volume on both the phone and the speaker to ensure clear sound. If you can hear the other party clearly and they can hear you, the phone is successfully connected to the Bluetooth speaker.
Answer and make calls
When receiving a call, press the answer button on the Bluetooth speaker. If your speaker has a dedicated button for answering calls, locate and press it to pick up the call effortlessly. For example, on our XYZ Bluetooth speaker, the answer button is indicated by a phone icon – a simple press of that button will connect you to the caller.
To make a call, you have two options. First, use voice commands if your speaker supports them. For instance, on the ABC speaker, simply say, “Hey speaker, call John Smith,” and it will initiate the call. Alternatively, you can dial the number manually on your phone while the Bluetooth speaker is connected. This means you can use your phone’s keypad or dial through your contacts to place a call. For example, dialing “123-456-7890” on your phone will connect you to the corresponding number while your Bluetooth speaker handles the audio.
End the call and disconnect
To end a call, press the End Call button on the speaker. This will disconnect the call and your conversation will be terminated. If you are using Bluetooth to make the call, ensure that you press the button on the speaker itself to end the call.
To disconnect completely, you can turn off the speaker by pressing the power button or switch it to the off position. Additionally, you can disconnect via your phone’s Bluetooth settings. Simply navigate to the Bluetooth section in your phone settings, find the speaker device, and select Disconnect. This will sever the connection between your phone and the speaker, ensuring that no audio is being transmitted.
Key Takeaways for Success
In conclusion, mastering the steps outlined in this guide will elevate your hands-free calling game with a Bluetooth speaker. By incorporating these tips into your routine, you’ll effortlessly handle calls while multitasking, ensuring a seamless and convenient communication experience. Stay connected and hands-free with ease!

Are there any advanced tips for reducing background noise during calls when using a Bluetooth speaker? Sometimes environmental noise can interfere with call quality, so any suggestions on how to mitigate that would be helpful.
I found that some Bluetooth speakers have a voice-guided pairing mode, which makes it easier for first-time users. For step 3, testing the connection, I like to play a song to ensure the audio quality is good before making any calls. It’s a more fun way to check the connection!
That’s a great tip! Using a voice-guided pairing mode can definitely simplify the process for users. Testing the connection with music is a smart way to ensure everything is working smoothly before diving into calls.
I adapted these steps slightly by setting up a voice command on my phone to activate the Bluetooth speaker for hands-free calling. This way, I can simply say a phrase to connect everything without having to manually go through the pairing process each time!
That’s a clever adaptation! Setting up a voice command for hands-free activation adds an extra level of convenience to the process. Thanks for sharing your personal variation.
