Handsfree: outgoing phone calls and more (app)

Wearing a headset? Keeping your phone nearby/in your pocket? Accepting calls via the watch, but wondering why you can't make outgoing calls as well? Missing access to your recent calls on your watch? Handsfree got you covered: install (and forget about) the companion app on Android, check your favorite contacts on your phone and ... you have them ready for dialing from your watch! ** To owners of previous generation of Garmin devices** (Instinct 2, Enduro/Fenix 6/Vivoactive 4/Edge 530/Forerunner 55/Descent G1 and etc): If you own an older device and hence stuck with inability to use the app during an activity, please take a look at the *widget* variant of Handsfree, that is also available at Connect IQ - it does not have that limitation. **Requirements**: - Android phone (iPhone is unfortunately not supported) - Your lovely watch or a bike computer - A bit of patience with the initial setup of the companion app. More info is on the project home page: https://github.com/grigorye/Handsfree **Known limitations**: - Maximum number of favorites: 20 (5 on low-memory devices) - Maximum number of recents: 10 (5 on low-memory devices) - With no headset, audio on accepting incoming call is routed to (default) output (e.g. phone ear speaker) - Glance is static on low-memory devices, shows only the app name **Beta-testers wanted!** If you're interested in joining the beta (and speedup getting the companion app into Google play store), please reach to me or send a request to join the dedicated Google group (https://groups.google.com/g/handsfree-beta) - I'd really appreciate that. **Installing companion app without Google Play** If you don't want or can not use Google Play, you can install the (Android) companion app from the page below: https://grigorye.github.io/handsfree/Installation

Beware that you need to install a recent version of Android companion. *If you stuck with calls not working after upgrading from V1, please check Android companion app and toggle off/on all the settings.* In case of problems, please consult Troubleshooting section of Android companion app (About: Troubleshooting). 2411-4a40df9e: - Added support for new Garmin devices - Improved memory requirements - Made favorites/recents not loaded in background on low-memory devices 2358-6feaccf5: - Added support for new Garmin devices - Improved memory requirements 2317-942614dd: - Fixed crash on opening Recents right after installation 2302-3090e0e7: - Added "Phone Numbers" in-app setting.
