Sena 20S and Iphone
« on: May 29, 2020, 11:18:12 am »
Hi all, a quick question. Does an Iphone play nice with the Sena 20s / 20S Evo? With regard to receiving phone calls listening to music and GPS etcetera. Also does the Sena App work on an Iphone.

I know Brian has a 20S and an Iphone but I'm not sure he will know the answers to my questions, so feel free to chip in.

Mine plays lovely, see! When Rae or postman Pat connects correctly...

However, mine does have a habit of playing Katie Mehlua for no apparent reason other than she is one of the artists in my iPhone. And also in my Garmin...

That must be when you are "crawling up a hill" Brian. Must be "the closest thing to madness." I suppose you could "blame it on the moon."
As I have grown older, I've learned that pleasing everybody is impossible, but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake.

The rain coming on Wednesday is down to me I'm afraid. Have a bike service booked.

It was something I was playing with Eric but the idea has been shelved for now.

I've just plunged into the world of communications and purchased a Sena srl-02 set up for my Shoei GT 2 Air lid, must say they blend together well, not really used it in much anger as we are not allowed out on our bikes in Wales yet!!

Is that unit based on the 20S?

Just checked and answered my own question, yes it is  :)

The range between 20S's is very impressive, when on the Wrinklies trip and paired with Brian and his 20S I could hear him even though he was nowhere to be seen in my mirrors (you can see Brian from a long long way off).

And being Tail-End Charlie, a long way off is indeed where he is most of the time  8)

I just mostly use mine for sat nav for which it’s brill. As for connecting up to other riders I haven’t learnt that yet...
