I know if you flip the little switch on the top left-hand side of an iPhone, the sound will not go through the speaker but it will still go through a Bluetooth ear peace. I call an ear peace one of those devices with 1 ear peace and a microphone used for telephone calls. A head set is for listening to music mostly but can still have a microphone. I don't use those because it isn't a good idea when walking down the street. However with an ear peace they do not interfere with your hearing when not on a phone call.
When I have that switch set to silent, no sound comes out of the speaker. I still need to hear incoming calls though. When a call does come in, I can then choose to answer it or let it go to voice mail. Sense I'm the president of our home owner's association, I may need to take that call so I'll excuse myself and let my vice president conduct the meeting and step out of the board room. If we are holding hearings, I am required by law to preside over that meeting in which case, I turn my phone off. When your dealing with somebody else's money or possibly having to impose fines and that sort of thing, there are just times when the phone has to be turned off.

It seems to me like I asked this before and the anser wasn "no". When using a headset or earphones or whatever, is there any way to keep the phone from also ringing through the external speaker? -- Cheryl May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to You, Lord, my rock and my Redeemer.
