However, your iPhone has a “Call Audio Routing” feature which is somewhat buried in the Accessibility suite of iOS and this allows you to automatically Route iPhone Calls to Bluetooth headset.

As you can imagine, routing calls on your iPhone to Bluetooth headset will allow you to go hands free and carry on working on your Mac or continue doing whatever you are busy with.

Check Bluetooth Connection on your iPhone

Before going through the steps to Route iPhone Calls to Bluetooth make sure that Bluetooth connection is working properly on your iPhone.

When Bluetooth option is enabled on your iPhone, you will see a Bluetooth icon in the status bar of your iPhone. In case you do not see a Bluetooth icon in the status bar, it means that Bluetooth is disabled on your iPhone or no Bluetooth devices have been paired with your iPhone.

To enable Bluetooth on your iPhone, open Settings > tap on Bluetooth > on the next screen, turn ON the option for Bluetooth.
