Since I upgraded to OS11 my iPhone 6 keeps disconnecting from the Bluetooth in my car, a Mazda 6 2015 vintage. To reconnect I have to select the phone on my cars infotainment unit and off it goes working for a while longer until it again disconnects mid song. This didn’t occur prior to OS11, any ideas?
Hello Pathfineroz,
I was having the same problem with my Bluetooth devices continuously disconnecting and then reconnecting on the iPhone after the iOS 11 update. It did this with all Bluetooth devices such as my car, powerbeats, etc. I use my Bluetooth headphones at the gym and on runs so you can see how this was a huge annoyance for me.
Anyways, this morning I was reading some articles and came across one that suggested I should reset all networks. I did that along with hitting the “forget this device” feature. I’ve been using my Bluetooth wireless headphones ever since I did that (for a little over an hour) and voila I haven’t had any disconnection issues!
I am not tech savvy whatsoever and I didn’t read through all of the comments in this discussion so hopefully I am not being repetitive and I am able to provide some assistance.
Hey again everyone,
To my surprise, it seems my suggestion to turn off Wi-fi is working! I haven't experienced a single drop in connection during my week or so of experimenting with this workaround. Granted it's a bit of a pain as every time I step foot in my car I would have to manually turn it off, but nonetheless it appears to work now.
Folks, I encourage you all to give it a try and let us all know your results. I know it's a long shot, but I'm hoping it'll help you guys out like it did for me. Obviously there are a plethora of variables involved as I've also tried all of the other recommendations as well (reset BT settings in car, in phone, hard restore with no backup of phone, etc). Your mileage may vary.
what a shame
Yes, also with airpods
I just got off the phone with Apple. No help for me and my Pebble watch. Pebble sold to Fitbit so no way to update the Pebble.

What does that have to do with the Bluetooth problem that this thread is about?
