iPhone 7 iOS 13.4 and 13.41 bluetooth issue

Bluetooth issue since iOS 13.4 with non-jailbroken iPhone 7. Every X minutes bluetooth will stutter for approximately 1 minute then returns to normal. X could be anywhere from 7 to 15 minutes.

Here are the following facts:

  • Happens on several different wi-fi networks in home and out of home
  • Happens with any app including Amazon Music, Apple Music, Pandora and Safari
  • Happens on wi-fi, mobile data and in airplane mode (obviously bluetooth stays on)
  • Happens with at least 4 different bluetooth devices across 4 different manufacturers


Troubleshooting steps taken with no resolve:

  • Bluetooth toggle
  • Airplane mode toggle
  • Reboot phone
  • Forgot bluetooth device
  • Forgot all bluetooth devices
  • Reset networking
  • Reset phone to factory


Nothing fixes the issue and it continues to show bluetooth stutter. Again it happens every X minutes ranging from 7 to 15 minutes. I believe it has to do with some scheduled task that the phone is running. It's too much of a coincidence that it's cyclical.

Hello ddgiants,


Thanks for asking the Apple Support Communities for help with Bluetooth. Thanks also for letting us know the troubleshooting you attempted already.


Is it possible this is occurring only in certain areas or near other devices? This may indicate some sort of interference. Please check this help article, and test in different areas, away from other devices and tech: Resolve Wi-Fi and Bluetooth issues caused by wireless interference - Apple Support


If this is occurring no matter where you are, all times of day, in your home, office, outside, etc. you may want to contact AppleCare next for more help. Use this link to contact AppleCare: Contact - Official Apple Support


Thanks and have a wonderful day.
