If yes can you help me, mine is saying try again and again but without success. (The earphones is available when bluetooth is searching).


Thanks for your help.

Hey Pascal,


I had the same problem and found your question while searching for a solution. I had the exact same issue you reported. However, after trying several different things, I got it to pair! Basically, I told my iPhone to Forget This Device for the JBL headphones, but that alone didn't resolve it. Then right after, I rebooted the Apple Watch (I have Series 1 for the record) and it paired right after the reboot! Hope this helps 🙂

Hi


It may help to first unpair your headphones from your iPhone (or any other device that they may already be paired with) before pairing them with your watch.


Check also that you are following the instructions here:


Use Bluetooth accessories with your Apple Watch - Apple Support


It may also help, when pairing your headphones with your watch, to move both devices to a different location (further away from any other Bluetooth devices that may be active) and to try again there.

Thanks for your answer but unfortunately, that's what I've did with no success.

On apple Watch, it keeps saying "Make sure JBL Reflect BT is on and is ready for pairing" and nothing else.

If I do the same thing with my iPhone, it works fine everytime.

I don't know why it doesn't work with my Watch.

I asked also to JBL and they answer me that they don't guarantee that their earphones work with AppleWatch. What a nice answer from them. I'm really happy with that.
