iPhone 15 pro max bluetooth issue Hi, my iphone 15 pro max is having bluetooth issues from day 1. It keeps working and suddenly it'll lose connection to my applewatch. While it shows it's connected to my watch, in reality the two devices are not talking properly. While the phone is in this state, i cant connect to other bluetooth devices either. it's only after i restart my phone, the connection is back working normally and i can connect to other bluetooth devices. At first i thought it was an issue with my apple watch. So, i reset the watch and paired it again with the phone. but nothing helps. the bluetooth connection on the phone stops working at its whim. I dont know if this is a hardware issue or a software issue. i'm currently running the latest version of iOS.

Try deleting the speaker from your phone, then pairing it again with your phone.

It has nothing to do with the watch. You can pair an unlimited number of Bluetooth devices, and you can have 7 in the connected state at the same time.

Did you pair the speaker again with your phone, does it show up in the list?

Deleting the speaker did not work.
