Hello All,

I finally opened this thread only to discover the initial post so inflammatory. 
However, I am not personalizing the fowl language at all. Yesterday, when out 
and about I was having problems with my Voyager Plus BT headset. it frequently  
bots its connection. and I needed to pair it back to my iFhone 6. The funny 
thing is that I didn't realize that it could be a conflict between iOS 8.2 and 
VO. I did stop in at the Apple store and the rep that helped me gave solutions, 
but didn't have a clue that it might be a bug that hasn't been fixed yet. I 
haven't tried any other BT devices to see if there is an issue with them. I did 
turn off/on my phone, and a hard reset, but I haven't tested the earpiece again 
with the phone. Just thought I would chime in with my most recent experience. 
Thanks for listening.

Cheers,
Eileene.
