iPhone Bluetooth headset for riding?

[JJones]

Had an idea to try and find a Bluetooth headset that I can wear when riding. I use apps that tell me mileage I've done and time but can't hear my iPhone when it's in my pocket. Thought it would be easier if I had one of those headset things you stick in your ear. Need one that listens to iphone all time rather than just when it rings.
Also I recorded my dressage tests to my speaker on iPhone so it reads it out to me so I can learn and ride at same time, would be handy for that.
So if any phone experts can help and tell me what I need that would be great thanks or if such a thing exists.

Can you not just use the headphones? When I'm in the school I find music helps me focus a bit more. I tuck mine under my hoodie/coat so just the ear pieces are out the top so if they happened to fall out they wouldn't get tangled on anything.

I could try it. I thought the cable might get tangled and keep pulling out.

Give it a go I tuck my phone into jodphur pocket, feed the cable up through my top and earphones come out the top where I put them in my ears - riding trot, jumping and bucks haven't shifted them yet!

You could always try 'sports' headphones, that connect to the phone wirelessly

I had lessons where my instructor communicated through headphones to me, great for when it was windy and I couldn't hear her. I had the transformer thing in my pocket and had clip over my ear type headphones, the cable just tucked away. Worked very well.
