Connect more than one phone?

Is it possible to have two phones connected at the same time for phone calls? I have my personal android and a work iPhone. Waiting for my car to be done at the ppf and ceramic shop before I get to play with it.

Short answer no.
Whilst you can pair both phones the BT system can only pair one device at a time and it is usually 1st in best dressed unless you you can assign one phone as default

Not sure what year car above but my id7 car I have both my work and personal phone connected and whichever receives a call comes through the car. I have phones as a widget on the centre screen and both phones are always there with remaining battery and signal strength

Any now I think about it when out with the wife it’s often annoying as hers is also connected and her calls come through the car as well as my phone

You can absolutely have two phones paired at once, and make and receive calls from both.

Are you sure about that? I have two phones connected using Bluetooth. One is just an old phone that I use to stream music and the other is my actual phone. I can stream music from both for sure. I can't receive calls on the old one though so I can't test if both phones work for calls.

It depends on whether you’ve got Enhanced Bluetooth or not:
