Using a Bluetooth speaker on incoming calls

I need to use a Bluetooth speaker to amplify a call from a remote presenter. Is that possible on an iPhone 13?

iPhone 6s, iOS 15

Yes, you can pair a Bluetooth speaker to the phone, then when you answer the phone call, go to Audio and select the Bluetooth speaker to be used.

Bluetooth Audio Transmitted to iPhone 15 Pro Can a bluetooth transmitter send audio to an iPhone 15 Pro or can an audio source be connected to an iPhone 15 Pro via the phones USB C port. Looking to use the phone to receive audio and listen via hearing aids. Cannot use headsets because of hearing aids. Many tours not use small receivers and earbuds for tour members so all can hear. Unless I can use the iPhone as a receiver I can't stream to my hearing aids. I've tried some small bluetooth Xmit/Receive units but the phone will only pair when the unit is in receive mode and not Xmit.

Unpaired Bluetooth speaker rings when iPhone rings. My iPhone (14 Pro, iOS 18.0.1) is not paired to a nearby Bluetooth speaker. But when a call is coming in to my iPhone the speaker rings too. It might be relevant that the speaker is paired to an iPhone (6s, iOS 15.8.3) which does not even have a SIM chip (it is Bluetoothing an FM station to the speaker). This problem has existed through the past several updates to the 14 Pro. Anyone else seeing this? Any thoughts? Thanks, Bob
