It would be helpful to be able to mute my phone conversation without having to pull out the phone. Perhaps adding this function to the Jog button?

I've been known to participate in conference calls while riding :D

  Add for SMH10R also. My very first call ended up being a conf call and I really needed to be able to keep everyone from hearing noise unless I had to participate. I wouldn't think it would be necessary to use the phone mute if you could interrupt sending the mic signal in the unit.

  Sounds like a great feature. Would also make sure that you don't accidentally hangs up the call when you are adjusting the volume.

  It's been over two years.  I guess it's not high on their list of priorities.

  I too use the Sena for conference calls driving to and from the office.  I always have to mute my phone before starting out and can't unmute unless I stop and get my phone out again.  Controlling the phone's mute function my be very difficult via bluetooth.  Most headsets I use do not mute the phone, but rather mute the mic on the headset.

  I have seen multiple requests for this feature.  Is there more road map information that can be provided to us.  'Thank you for your suggestion. We will consider this and get back to you when we are ready.'  does not give users any sense of status or if the suggestion is being considered.

  Thanks for any info that can be provided.

  Bumping this feature request as well.   Much needed, in fact, I would not have bought if I knew it didn't have it.   Such a basic feature....

  I need this feature more than any other.  I frequently use my bike to commute to work and attend conference calls.  In many cases, I have to plan my drive around whether I have to be on a call or not, and whether I need to talk during the meeting.  The lack of a mute feature has kept me from driving my bike more than once.  It seems like it would be a no brainer that this should be on a Bluetooth headset.

  As it is, I can't use my setup for conference calls. This feature would be very, very useful. I assume we will probably never be getting it on the SMH10, so as soon as it is out of warranty I plan to add a hardware switch for the mic myself.

  With the exception of this feature, I love my device.  This makes it very unfriendly, and once I decide to replace it, I'll be looking for something else that does have this feature.  It's too late to take it back and too expensive to replace just for this feature, but I won't be getting another one without the mute feature.

  Four and a half years, and still no update? Multiple revisions and still no way to mute the call without touching the phone.

  Coming up on six years regarding a request for a feature commonly found on other bluetooth headsets.
