Bluetooth Echo

[EngrHog]

Occasionally people on the other end of a call say they hear an echo, to the point they can no longer carry on the conversation. Hanging up and calling back doesn't fix it. The problem seems to be random at this point, maybe 15% of the time. I have an iPhone 14 pro.

Any solutions? Thanks.

Here's a potential answer and solution...worked for me.

If you are hearing an echo or a high-pitched noise sound when using the handsfree function with the Bluetooth® car stereo, this may be a result of feedback caused by using two microphones at the same time:

• one microphone built-in on the cell phone.
• one microphone built-in on the car stereo.

The two microphones will produce feedback due to the sound coming from two opposite sides.
