Connecting phone to Ford Sync

[ImNewHere]

I've got a Samsung A22 5G phone, and can connect it to my Ford Sync no problem, and it automatically connects when I get in the car. 

I've now also got a Samsung Galaxy watch4 classic. Since linking the watch to the phone, the phone won't link automatically to my Ford Sync. The only way I've found to connect is to delete the connection and resync. 

Is anyone aware of why this might be?

A limitation of the Bluetooth adaptor in the phone maybe restricting it's pairing capacity to one device at a time? You should open a ticket with Samsung as they may be able to fix the issue in an updated ROM in the future

Thanks for the info, I'll give it a try

I first tried customer support who advised no android phones allow multiple Bluetooth connections, which I know isn't accurate since my previous Honor Play phone was capable of doing it.

I've left a question on the technical support area.

Hi. I have a Samsung A31. It connects great to my Ford. When I get calls throught whatsapp, I do get option to accept or decline the calls on the touch screen and steering wheel. But when it is a normal incoming call, I can only decline the call. Don't have an option to accept the call.
I tested it with 2 other phones. They work. 
What setting must I change on my phone? 
But otherwise everything connects perfectly.
