What if the speaker does not connect to the phone via Bluetooth?

When the speaker does not connect to the phone via Bluetooth, users are trying to figure out what to do, what is the cause of the breakdown. Indeed, there may be several sources of problems - some of them are general, others are characteristic only for specific operating systems. You can find out why the iPhone does not see the speaker, or Android does not find it, by thoroughly examining all the possible reasons for the connection failure.

Wireless speaker connects to the phone via bluetooth and maintains stable signal reception from the source at a distance of 10 to 30 m, depending on the version of the communication module used. However, the smartphone can still be used in normal mode. Pairing can be created between several auxiliary and one main device at once.

It is important to add that Bluetooth transmission is a fairly stable way of broadcasting audio to external acoustic devices.

Most often, the lack of a Bluetooth connection is associated with some errors.

1. Pairing mode is inactive in portable acoustics. For successful device detection, it must turn on both on the speaker and on the smartphone. In most cases, you just need to follow the included instructions to activate. If it is absent, it is enough to hold down and hold the power button until a blinking signal of the built-in indicators or sound notification appears.
2. After the first connection, the speaker does not connect automatically... Usually only smartphones and speakers of the same brand are capable of this. If the connection cannot be re-established without additional tweaks, you need to re-establish it.
3. There is no sound, the speaker is on, and so is the smartphone. It is possible that you have paired with another device. If the mobile device was previously connected to another acoustics, it may well do it again.
4. The NFC module interferes. If both the speaker and the smartphone have it, then it is often not possible to use the usual Bluetooth communication channels. Be sure to try to perform NFC pairing, bringing the device as close as possible to the included wireless acoustics, and confirm the request that appears on the screen.
5. The equipment is simply broken or not charged. You need to start checking by checking your smartphone. If you can connect it via Bluetooth with other devices, the reason is in the speaker. If the battery is discharged, you need to connect the device to the mains until it is replenished, and then try to turn on.
6. The operating system of the smartphone has crashed. If the connection is disconnected unexpectedly, it is recommended to restart the machine. It is quite possible that after this simple action, pairing will be established normally.
7. Pairing is unstable. This could be caused by interference or exceeding the recommended range. It is worth bringing the device as close as possible to the speaker during the first pairing, give it time for the signal to pass.
8. Connection cannot be established without a password. If it is not indicated in the documents for the column, or they are absent, it is worth trying the universal combination of numbers - 0000. In most cases, it turns out to be enough.
9. Signal source - iPhone. Many budget devices cannot be connected to Apple smartphones due to incompatibility of communication standards.It is worth choosing speakers, the specification of which indicates the ability to work with the iPhone.

If pairing is for the first time, you need to make sure that the Bluetooth modules are turned on on the smartphone and the speaker at the same time. To connect, you need to enter the menu of the mobile device, open access to detection for all devices. After the device appears in the list - the name of the column will be displayed - you need to pair it. It can take up to 5 minutes.

Unsaved pairing can be due to various factors. If the speaker does not automatically start playing sound immediately after activating Bluetooth in your phone, you need to manually pair it again. With some models, this has to be repeated regularly.

It is quite easy to identify the connection to another device when the smartphone finds the wrong speaker... It is enough to enter the Bluetooth menu on the smartphone, check the current pairing. Often this is how the smartphone finds wireless headphones. To correct the situation, you will need to disconnect unnecessary audio broadcast sources and new pairing.

Bluetooth speakers are quite diverse in their design. Most often we are talking about classic portable acoustics. Today, so-called "smart" devices that support work as a voice assistant and a full-fledged media complex also act in this capacity. The connection with them is established via Bluetooth only in the mode of broadcasting music or other audio files. It is worth considering that in pairing mode, such devices consume the phone's charge quite intensively: The older the version of the communication module, the more power consumption will be.

Connecting wireless speakers has its own nuances. The smartphone from which the signal is heard at the time of pairing should be as close as possible to portable acoustics. Otherwise, signal recognition will be difficult.

Connecting 2 speakers to one smartphone it is recommended to perform according to a fundamentally different scheme, otherwise the sound will go through only one speaker. The speakers will have to be wired using an AUX or USB cable. In this case, you only need to connect a smartphone via Bluetooth to 1 speaker, while it is better to choose a lower-power model.

When a breakdown has technical reasons, the device simply will not turn on. It may be due to a lack of battery power. This happens when the cable or the charging socket on the case is damaged. The battery itself can also fail during operation.

If everything is working properly, but the connection cannot be established, it is worth paying attention to the auxiliary tools. These include the Bluetooth pair application. By installing it on your phone, you can quite easily connect with each other even those devices that could not be connected in other ways.

A column that previously supported pairing, but now does not receive a signal, can be "reanimated" by performing a full factory reset... It will break all previously established contacts. In most cases, it is enough to hold the off button for 10 seconds. Clearing the history will help if the memory is overloaded, and more than 10 signal sources are already recorded in it.
