I had my bluetooth speakers connected to my iphone 8 and now I am trying to get them to connect to my iphone 12. I have tried turning on and off both phone and speakers, everything is fully charged, the speakers connect to other devices in the house.

I was unable to pair my iPhone 12 mini with a Sony bluetooth device that other devices were able to pair with. I was running iOS14.x.

On the suggestion from the Apple service desk I updated to iOS 15. I am now able to pair with the bluetooth device.

A1. Refer to the link provided atop this post.

Q2."Is there a way to manually put in the details for the bluetooth speaker?"

A2. Not that I'm aware of. So, see if it is seen...

See if the speaker is even seen: 

1. Hold Down: the Option key
2. Click: the Apple menu
3. Select:: About this Mac...
4. Click: System Report... button
5. Select: Bluetooth (on the left of screen)
6. Look For: this Speaker

Give me all of it
