I am wondering if you can use multiple phones with the Uconnect system. For example, I have an android device (for work) and iPhone personally. Can I plug in the android to operate with the Uconnect in android auto mode and still take a call on a second phone over Bluetooth?

Only one at a time.. from p 300 of the user guide:

Select The iPhone's Priority Level When the pairing process has successfully completed, the system will prompt you to choose whether or not this is your favorite mobile phone. Selecting “Yes” will make this mobile phone the highest priority. This mobile phone will take precedence over other paired mobile phones within range and will connect to the Uconnect system automatically when entering the vehicle. Only one mobile phone and/or one Bluetooth audio device can be connected to the Uconnect system at a time. If “No” is selected, simply select “Uconnect” from the mobile phone/ audio device Bluetooth screen, and the Uconnect system will reconnect to the Bluetooth device.

This all makes sense. But the question I had wasn’t whether you could have two phones connected via Bluetooth at the same time. My question was could you hard wire connect an android device (assume for a moment Bluetooth is off on the android device) and also connect an iPhone wirelessly to the system via Bluetooth. So you could be using Waze or Spotify on the car with the android device that’s plugged in but then interrupt the song or whatever when a call came in on your iPhone.
