iPhone 6, Hearing aids, car radio, Bluetooth problem
I recently purchased Kirkland S6 hearing aids and an iPhone 6. I also have a Kenwood DDX5902 radio in my car. The iPhone and the hearing aids work well together. The iPhone and the Kenwood work well together. my problem comes when I receive a phone call while I am in the car - the call goes to my hearing aids and not to the car radio. If I turn off my hearing aids (open the battery doors) the call will go to the car radio. If I unpair my hearing aids from the iPhone the calls will go to the radio, but I am not going to do that every time I get in the car (a suggestion from Apple by the way). My state only allows hands free devices so I cannot use my hearing aids and the phone microphone to take a call while driving. I can find no way to temporarily turn off the Bluetooth to my hearing aids. a visit to the Apple store was no help and a call with Apple tech support was no help. Do other people have this problem and what do you do to get around it? This seems like a serious flaw in the iPhone programming.
