Q: Blutooth Connection Stability

since 8.3 and now in 8.4 My Bluetooth connections will randomly drop. It reconnects sometimes quickly thereafter, but it's becoming a nuisance. It seems to happen the most when I am listening to music or other media. It does not drop when I'm making calls. It happens on several Bluetooth devices so I'm confident there is something going on with the phone. I've tried everything including resetting my network settings. The next step is to restore the device to factory settings and start all over. Before I start this painful process, are there any possible solutions?

iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 8.4

Hi RockyDale,

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like your iPhone will drop the Bluetooth connection listening to music but not on a call. This was happening in the last update too. Since this happens with several Bluetooth devices, how many are you using? I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

Minimize the number of active Bluetooth wireless devices you have connected to the computer or operating in the area.

Cheers
