Phone Answer button?

[MichAngler]

I’ve yet to try this but when you get a phone call and you have your phone paired to the echomap you see to options Answer or Decline

My question is if you select answer does the graph have the ability to allow you to talk to the caller?

Is there a mic on the graph?

Nope, you still have to physically talk on the phone......

Well that just seems redundant then

if you need the phone to talk why not just use the answer button on the phone?

It's just a "notification".....if your phone is in the rod box, storage, etc., you can at least see who's calling and decided if you want to answer or not.........same as text messages, you can read them but not respond but you have a choice to grab the phone or not......

It's good for if you have ear buds in. I keep the phone in a compartment. When I see the notification I answer through the graph and start talking through the ear buds. LOVE IT now that we're "working from home"

That's a pretty good point.....

Yep have to 2nd that

I don't use the buds but at least there's a use for the button

LOL no way I want my screens to tell me I have a call. When I fish I fish ;-)

If it lets me fish during working hours, I am using it. Otherwise I am sitting in front of a desk instead of fishing. Weekends and afterhours the work phone stays home.
