Unknown bluetooth connected device Occasionally I get an unknown device connected to my iPhone (first the X, now the 12 ProMax). There is no option to forget the device as the blue "i" icon is not present for it. All the other named devices my phone can connect to are present. The device name is not something like AirPods or iPad but an alphanumeric string; currently it is S2214e82a1464ad06C. Turning Bluetooth off and back on does not sever the connection.

Why is there a Random "Accessory" connected to my bluetooth? When I open Bluetooth on my iPhone 14 Pro Max to find my AirPods and see if their connecting (sometimes they don't for some reason) and there is a random "accessory" connected to my bluetooth. I don't know where it came from or how to get rid of it. What do I do?

Unknown (IPhone) Bluetooth devices connects randomly to my macbook pro For some reason time to time my IPhone connects as unknown device to my Macbook Pro running Big Sur. I don't really know why or what is triggering it. I have turned off handoff on my Iphone, Macbook & iWatch. Removed the battery widget. My Iphone is not linked via bluetooth to my Mac and I still can't figure out how and why it's connecting to my mac. I also own an Airpods Pro. The device (Iphone) shows up like this. (Based on the signal strength I determined that it's my IPhone 11) Devices (Paired, Configured, etc.): 49-4a-b3-4a-32-1d: Address: 49-4A-B3-4A-32-1D Random Address: Yes Resolvable Address: Yes Services: Paired: No Configured: No Connected: Yes Bluetooth Core Spec: 1.0b Class of Device: Low Energy AFH: On AFH Map: befff7fe1d RSSI: -61 Role: Peripheral Connection Mode: Active Mode Interval: 0 ms Any Idea how can I solve this problem?

Hello mathias216,

We understand you have some questions regarding an unrecognized Bluetooth connection. This can be due to a few things. One, it may be tied to an installed application for a Bluetooth device like healthcare devices, fitness, vehicles, and more. It can keep a connection available to auto-pair to your device.

Another is a profile installed from a workplace, university, or institution you are connected to. Details on those can be found here:
