iPhone 11 on iOS 13 having Bluetooth connectivity issues

I have a similar issue. My Bluetooth connects to my car but after playing 1 song on a streaming radio app, it doesn’t move onto the next song. This happens on multiple devices (Bluetooth headphones and Bluetooth receiver I have at home). I have to unlock my phone and manually select the next song to play.... very annoying!!

I am also having a Bluetooth connectivity issues. Yesterday I upgraded from an iPhone 7 to an iPhone 11. Both are running iOS13.1

My Garmin Forerunner has connected without issue and maintains connection. My Anker "Soundbuds Slim" bluetooth earphones, while discovered by the 11, cannot be paired.

I can connect them to the 7 without any issues. This is frustrating as they're only a week old.

So far no methods work except, if i put it on airplane mode, then i can hold the bluetooth connection in the car. but i have been unable to get music to play through bluetooth. Phone calls are still choppy.

I'm wondering if it's something with the firmware version of the BT in some cars since

I have no issues with my cheap headphones from amazon $12 and it connects and doesn't have any static and no dropping connection either but this is also newer within the last 2 yrs. I hope they have a fix soon. quite frustrating

I just upgraded from iPhone 7 Plus to IPhone 11 Pro - my Bluetooth connection is horrible. I lost connection 5 times in a less than 3 minute song and my phone calls are dropped. Any solutions? I’m not thrilled...never had this issue before

I just spoke with support again, it's not being reported too much yet - he did notice a few instances of it in his forums, I think people are just thinking it's them.

I would make sure all of you contact support and file a ticket to let them know that this is more wide spread then they beleive. It's on reddit, and other forums as well. I'm just surprised none of the tech blogs have picked up on it yet, as this is a huge issue and is sure to hurt sales.

Same issue here. Everyday I have to "forget this device" then re-connect my phone to my 2014 Dodge. Never had this issue with my other phones. Also it will NOT re-connect on its own. Super frustrating, especially since I can't pair my phone while the car is moving. Two days in a row I've had to use speaker phone on the way home. PLEASE FIX THIS!!

Lol, how did they get your number ? And how do you know person who called you is from Apple? I hope u didn't give any personal information and hope they didn't implant any software to steal your information from you phone. Have you never heard that IRS never calls, they mail? 🤦🏽‍♂️ Same concept goes here too

All i am saying is you should be very careful, i do not see a single response here from

apple and they just called you without you calling them, thats kinda suspicious, don't you think? I just called them and they ask me to update with latest 13.1 and if i still face issue than have to call them back. Again they asked me to call them , not the other way around.

It is rather odd, Bluetooth works 100% with my AirPods, Anker SoundCore speaker and JBL Go 2 speaker. Yet, sometimes it won’t connect to my 2014 Dodge Dart Uconnect 8.4 radio.

I turned off “Hey Siri” and now it connects 90% of the time. Disabling that also eliminated the pops and crackles during phone calls made in the car through the Bluetooth connection.

Maybe try disabling “Hey Siri” as a workaround until Apple fixes the problem?

My son and I are having nearly identical issues with our iP11 Pro’s. BT has been randomly disconnecting and reconnecting in both our cars (different makes and years, but both fairly current). In addition, I have had various inconsistencies with both my AirPods and my Plantrinics headset. IDK if this is a hardware issue or an iOS 13/13.1 issue. Hopefully it’s just a firmware issue and there will be a fix soon. FWIW, I’ve never had this issue with any other iPhone including the XS Max I just switched from.

Also, I personally know other users with the same issues, so it might be wider-spread than we know. In that case, maybe it will be corrected sooner.

I bought new Iphone 11 in last weekend. I have a lot of phones like ipohone 6, 6s , 7, x , samsung s8 ,s9 , j5(2017) j3(2017) and its never happend. When i connect with my xiaomi roidmi 3 bluetooth charger my phone music stucking for seconds or i heard crap noises. I tried with diffrent cars and different apps like spofity, apple music, youtube music premium. And still same, but when i connect other phone everything is fine...

Please Apple resolve this :)

I am also having the same problem. I have the iPhone 11 pro and my Bluetooth will connect one minute and then next minute it is not connected. It is really annoying. I never had this issue with my iPhone 7 plus. When I call Apple about it all they ever tell me is to upgrade the software in my car which is not the issue.. they’re no help.

NO! This isn't solved. Most if not all of us have already upgraded to 13.1. I've spoken to 3 different Apple techs. I have a ticket and it has been escalated to the engineers. In the meantime, I ordered a second iPhone 11 64gb. I will be swapping my backup onto that new phone Today. This will eliminate the possibility that "some of the iphone 11 phones have bad Bluetooth chips". I'm not holding my breath though.

I was able to get my Golf GPS app (Hole19) to work with my Apple Watch. I had to remove both apps (from the watch then the phone). Then rebooted both and reinstalled. At that point the gps started working.
