Bluetooth issues on my iPhone 15 Pro Max with iOS 17.0.3

It does! All you Engineers out there, let's use this to thread to solve this.

Thread has vanished ... maybe need to take it to another platform.

Yup just got an email they yanked it. Crazy.

Exactly the same issue on my 15PM at exactly the same mall (Chadstone, VIC). Only had it occur once before and it resolved itself rather quickly but it seems to refuse to work in Chadstone after numerous restarts! Wonder if it’s something to do with overwhelming Bluetooth traffic at this specific location?

It simply disgusts me that Apple ruined the bluetoioth BT Audio Player on my automobile! (Again) on a major number update and new iPhone 15 P M. It is a $1300 phone. My iPhone 7+ did the same thing some years back and they did something on my phone to fix it.

Having iPhone 15 PM issues connecting meaningfully with my bluetooth wireless keyboards.

I say "meaningfully"....because I can pair/connect the keyboard, but I have to hold down a character key for 2 secs at least, to see the character appear in the text box. Not very conducive to fast typing.

Hoping for a fix.

I've already installed 17.0.3, and passed an apple support phone sharing troubleshooting session.

Currently on the phone with Applecare, the same issue Bluetooth stops working in and around Chadstone, also issues connecting Airpod Pros and pro max. the full issues is not present all the time, Chadstone Bluetooth crashes and becomes unavailable, outside and in other locations, only one side of AirPods connects. The screen is also very slow when typing and not very responsive, Applecare has just come back and said you just have to wait for a software fit, with no timeline......... $2,600 and Apple want us to be beta testers. iphone 15 Pro Max running on iOS 17.0.3

I use mine primarily for my hearing aids and am experiencing exactly the same issue with the BT connection (This never happened in more than three years of using this device on my IP7). I am certain that they are connected properly, no issues with that. When I receive an incoming phone call, it will randomly connect only one HA, another one will have a poor connection. Very often the connection will drop and I can't get them reconnected without rebooting either the HA or the phone, or both. Then I need to call the person back. Hey Apple, you need to get this resolved.

Our hearing aids are working fine but they are brand new. Do you have the type with an Apple app? Might help to download it. Try rebooting a couple times as well. Reset network connections. Turn BT off then back on. Go to your ha provider if nothing works.

Thank you for your suggestions. I've done all of what you suggested, ha provider has no know issues with this device. As I posted, they worked perfectly until the IP15 upgrade. Have wrestled with this for two weeks and nothing seems to work. Too many intermittent problems with the way they connect and don't connect.

My issue is primarily with the bluetooth keyboard connection. It pairs, but I must hold down a character key for at least 2-secs to have it appear in the text box.

I've spent time in chat with both Apple and Logitech. No solutions apparent...even after a remote sharing attempt for possible problems with the OS or hardware.

All worked well with iPhone 13 Pro Max prior to my iPhone 15PM changeover.

I'm using IOS 17.0.3

I can also attest to the same. As a workaround, I did discover that turning off/on bluetooth (from the Bluetooth settings menu, not the control panel) does temporarily alleviate the issue and re-enable communications with your devices. It will happen again, however. I previously posted a message to this effect and Apple removed it due to mention of iOS beyond 17.0.3.

Certainly, today at Chadstone Shopping Centre, I experienced an issue where, upon entering the mall, my iPhone 15 Pro Max's Bluetooth began repeatedly disconnecting and reconnecting every 10 to 15 seconds. However, as soon as I left the shopping center, my iPhone 15 Pro Max's Bluetooth worked perfectly again.

I have exactly the same problem with iPhone 15 Pro and the Bluetooth connection to the car and AirPods 3 = constant disconnections.

For this I have been in contact with Apple support several times. Today was diagnosed again including sharing the logs. I hope there is a solution soon.

I've had so many issues in the past less than a month with this 15 Pro Max that it has really taken all my Faith out of Apple. I would assume they are not hiring based on the best qualifications and are just making hires to fill a quota. Honestly how else do you explain the worst iPhone put out to date on the buggiest iOS ever released?! It doesn't take a lot of thought to put 2 and 2 together. Not only do I have the Bluetooth issue which I stated earlier, but I also have the overnight issue where I grab my phone off the charger in the morning and I have a black screen and it is unresponsive. No fix for that yet. This honestly may be my last Apple product. Apple fix your garbage!
