Is it really true that you only need to pair up to 4 phones once and then afterwards whenever you get into the car everything is automatic, or is it like most Bluetooth things and you must pair each time you get into the car?

It really would be useful and amazing if each time you drove the pairing was automatic! Sorry for the newbie question. I am about to purchase a new 5 and I just want to make sure I heard and understood the sales guy correctly.

The pairing is (should be) automatic. Check the settings on your phone to make sure that you've set it to automatically connect without prompting (or some similar wording.)

So far I have paired two phones and they work great! No problems when I alternate them, they automatically find each other!
