How to Use Bluetooth with Cell Phone
Bluetooth allows for wireless streaming and is more convenient. The system uses radio waves to transmit signals from your mobile phone to a headset or ear bud, which are also wireless.
In most cases there is no need to set up access from your Bluetooth to your cell phone since most mobile phones will be able to locate your Bluetooth headset or ear piece. When you turn on your Bluetooth enabled phone it will search within 30 ft for your Bluetooth device.
If your phone doesn’t automatically locate your headset there is a process you can use to activate your hands free device. First check the instructions that came with your phone and/or headset. If these directions are too confusing do a web search about “How to connect a Bluetooth to a cell phone.” These directions are extremely easy to follow.
What is the benefit of using a Bluetooth headset or ear bud for your mobile phone? It allows you to answer your phone by just the press of one button and you can talk on the phone and have both hands on the steering wheel. This is vital if you are driving. Many states ban all cell phone use by the driver. However many states do allow hands free Bluetooth use of cell phones by drivers. Of course it is even safer to not use the phone at all while driving. If it is a must take call, find a safe place to pull over and answer your call. However if this isn’t possible, you must use a Bluetooth. Answer the call and tell them you will call back as soon as you find a safe place to pull over.
Your Bluetooth device will allow you to access the Internet, listen to and download music to your phone or MP3 player. When your phone rings you do need to press the on button. Then you can talk through your microphone and hear the caller through the earpiece of your Bluetooth headset. You can also listen to WMA as well as MP3 music formats through your Bluetooth headset or ear bud.
Lately every time you turn around, there is some new function being added to new phones. Such as voice activation, TV, GPS, cameras, camcorder and PDA (personal digital assistant). Some of these features have been around for a while, but to have some many features available is somewhat surprising. Just a few years ago we were thrilled to be able to get a consistent reliable signal.
Personally I think hands free or voice activated calling should be standard on all mobile phones. This would be of great use to motorists and to people with limited mobility. My next feature would be GPS. I can do without games, TV, music and camera.
Using your Bluetooth cell phone is really easy once you get it set up, all you have to do is press one button and you are set to go.
