    Best Microphone for Calls?

    I currently have 1st gen AirPods Pro and the microphone quality isn't that great. I've been told that only 70% of my speech is comprehensible to the person on the other end. I'm looking for a great sounding headset so people can hear me better. I'm even fine with using a cable, just as long as...

    Contact Nicknames and Calls

    Settings > Contacts > Short Name > Prefer Nicknames (on) With this setting enabled, texts display nicknames, but incoming calls do not. Is this the intended behavior or am I doing something wrong? (Running iOS 16)

    Is there a way to stop FaceTime from taking over during incoming calls?

    I like the feature of taking calls on my Mac. But what is driving me crazy is that FaceTime seems to immediately become the foreground app, stopping all inputs to other apps. For example: If I'm typing while a call is coming in my keystrokes result in warning sounds. Of course, when I'm just...

    Resolved: Apple Watch won't show incoming calls

    Edit, resolved: Resetting the network settings on the phone fixed this. Not sure which of the other steps were necessary in addition to that. See reply #2 below for details. ----------------------------------------- So, one of the reasons I love the Apple Watch is the ability to take incoming...

However, when on a call, and there's an automation asking you to put in your number, holding down the "0" does not add the "+". Typing in the number without the plus doesn't work, it gives an error. I had an issue with an...

    HomePod - Calls

    I know that HomePod will be able to answer phone calls but it will be able to handle calls himself? I'm out of home and I would like to call home, in this case make a call to the HomePod and someone in home could answer it. Using Facetime calls.
