Apparatus includes a base station with wireless protocol such as Bluetooth, or microphones or acoustical means for detecting and receiving the ringing or alerting signal from a cellular device(s), and transmits this signal wirelessly to one or more remote receiver unit(s), where the signal is amplified and reproduced by a speaker. When the mobile device(s) are within the base station's wireless connectivity zone, the base station synchronizes with the mobile device(s) so that when an incoming call, or text, or data is detected, the base station receives the incoming call and wirelessly transmits the incoming signal to the remote receiver where it is audible to those within earshot of the remote receiver(s). Both base and/or remote speaker units may also serve as charging stations for the mobile devices.
