Can I answer phone calls while wearing Bluetooth headphones?

[Pegals]

I have scull candy head phones that are Bluetooth. Would I be able to answer phone calls with them on while listening to my music on my Versa?

Yes, IF the headphones are Multipoint headphones meaning that they can connect to more than one device at a time.  You would need to look up the specifications for your particular headphones.  I have these and I can answer my phone while listening to music on my Versa.

Thank you so much for the information. I'm excited to get this feature up
and running.

A warm welcome to the Community @Pegals and @kcronin thanks for stopping by.

I am glad to see here that your inquiry has been resolved. If there's anything else we can help you with, do not hesitate to post it. Just remember that if you want to answer the call from the Versa, you need to have an iOS device which is the only with this feature. 

Keep the stepping up.

Hi ! 

So, through your Android device, if you wear a bluetooth headset you can get that call on ?

Do you "accept'' the call by a button the headset, since you can't do it on the watch with android ?  This is my main concert with the watch, until they get that update (I hope), I am looking for an efficient way to answer a phone call while using the watch, without touching the phone itself.

@SunsetRunner .Actually, you can answer the call from your watch with Android ever since the firmware update 32.10.15 that was pushed out last May. The primary requirement is to have multi-point headphones that you have previously paired with both the phone and the watch. Also, it's probably eadier just to answer with a touch to the headphones.

Thank you for replying ! I tried this morning actually with a new watch I bought and I just had the "decline" option. I'm guessing there might be an issue with my android version (7.1) since I saw that the Fitbit Charge 3 can do it with Android 8.0 + 

[kcronin]

@SunsetRunner  Perhaps you are right.  I have Android 8.0 running on my phone.

if i have iOS and multi-point headphones i can answer calls and talk to people if they wring me without using my phone? I have a Fitbit Versa and can answer calls but then i need to go onto my phone to talk.

@PheonixBlade  With multipoint headphones, you can can answer calls on your phone using the headphones even if you are listening to music on your Versa. You can take the call by pressing on the headphones (read headphone instructions) and the music stops. You need your phone with you but you don't have to take out your phone or hold it to your head. You aren't talking to your Versa through the headphones. Make sense?

@PheonixBlade Yes, I definitely recommend those headphones.  I have the same (2 pairs) and they work great.

I was researching and it said that any music from the Versa is static no matter how good your headphones are. Is that true
