Bluetooth - it appears to be constantly searching

I have a problem with Bluetooth. It occurs on my iPad and iPhone. When I go to Bluetooth in Settings it is constantly searching. Can I stop this to reduce battery use or does it stop automatically once I come out of settings? I cannot turn Bluetooth off as I need to remain paired with the Pencil and watch respectively.


Advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

iPad Pro, iOS 13

It will stop searching as soon as you exit from Bluetooth in Settings.
