Bluetooth on setting keeps running on phone. Works fine but battery drain?

when I go to bluetooth I see my iPods connected but my computer not connected. the hourglass thing keeps spinning like it is looking for something. My computer connects to bluetooth if I choose it but I don't. Is this normal to have bluetooth constantly searching or

not.. Also why would I want to use Bluetooth to connect my computer to my phone anyway. It creates a bluetooth pan connection when I do. Any idea if all this is normal on my iPhone 12 pro

Hi Sntkeel,


We see you have some Bluetooth and battery related questions. With Bluetooth enabled, while you're in the settings it will always search for available devices that can be connected. You wouldn't connect your iPhone to your computer through Bluetooth, but you might want to connect external peripherals like headphones in the future.


Here's a good resource on what impacts your battery life and how you can make the most of it through your settings: Maximizing Battery Life and Lifespan


We hope this answers your questions.


Take care.
