No, I had the same experience as you with respect to navigating with the bluz2 headphones on. I think it is safe to use them with the IOS maps app because it speaks infrequently. But I have found that I lose my spidey sence if I am listening to music and trying to walk around the house. You know how you can move around your house and anyone seeing you would think you can see just fine? I can't do that even if I am useing the bone-conduction headphones and listening to music.

Same here.  I recommend spending the extra to get the Trekz Titanium.  The 
Blues I have had all broke or stopped working.  Aftershokz was good about 
replacing them, but that gets old.  The Titaniums are made differently and are 
much more durable.  I wear mine around the house and leave them on my head all 
the time when I go out.  You may find them inadequate if you spend time in loud 
environments such as a bus, train, or crowded restaurant.  Mine shipped with a 
pair of ear plugs, which rather defeats the purpose of the headset but is a 
good solution if you’re somewhere safe and for the moment don’t need to hear 
what’s around you.  They are best for their advertised purpose of leaving your 
ears open.  However, as my wife would tell you, what you are hearing in the 
headset will still distract you and possibly cause you to miss what’s going on 
around you.  That’s a brain issue, and perhaps others’ are better than mine.  
If I have to start commuting again, I may prefer something that works better on 
the train, but otherwise I love my Aftershokz
and highly recommend them.

I love mine because they let me hear both ambient and i-device sounds, 
improving navigation and phone access.  They pair just fine.

Hi,

Has anyone on the list had aftershockz bluez 2S headset? If so, is it easy to 
pair with iOS devices and/or mac? Any comments on their performance?  I've only 
just come across them and thought they might be rather useful as they wouldn't 
cut out the ambient noise - an important factor if I walk around the house.  
With headset that fit into my ear or cover my ears, I either have to use just 
one ear or otherwise bump into furniture and doors.
