Z flip 5 Speaker phone not working when folded

[jae]

I am encountering an issue where when i answer calls when fhe phone is folded, it doesnt output the call to the loud speaker but just in the phones earpiece so i have to unfold the phone. This happens when my non-samsung smartwatch is connected with the phone.

I have reported this to samsung and they said they will look into it.

If you are encountering the same issue, i found a workaround in the meantime which might help you until Samsung fixes this bug.

I use bixby routines to disconnect my watch when there is an incoming call and reconnect after some time. Feel free to change the reconnection time as you please, i find it 1 and a half minute suits me as i dont usually take long calls on speaker phone. The call will transfer back to the earpiece when the smartwatch gets reconnected so i suggest change to time to your preference.

Let me know if this helps you, it took me some time to test the best option for this work around.

Follow this routine

I am not sure if this is also the case when connected with a Samsung smartwatch
