bluetooth problem

My new Iphone 11 was activated yesterday. The blue tooth is on but it won't give me options of any of my devices to pair it to. "to pair an Apple Watch with your iPhone, go to the Apple Watch app" is the promt and it has been trying all day to find other devices.


iPhone 11, iOS 14

For your new phone to see Bluetooth Devices, they MUST be in Pairing Mode, per the directions from the manufacturer of the devices. Your phone won't see them or connect with them if they aren't in pairing mode.
