Determining my Bluetooth connection
Hi, all. Using an iPhone SE with iOS 11.0.1
Is there a way to determine what Bluetooth device my phone is paired to?
This has been happening for some time now, on earlier iOS versions too: the Bluetooth icon would be in my status bar, in the "paired" mode (that is, not grayed-out)...but I could not see to WHAT I was paired. This happened often in my home. A visit to the Bluetooth settings would not show me to what I was paired: I have had for some time two devices listed under "My Devices" (my car, my girlfriend's car), and both would show "disconnected." And though I would see the spinning gear next to "other devices," I had never seen anything show up in that list.
That has changed under iOS 11: it APPEARS that there is no "bluetooth on but not paired" indicator in the status bar. It always looks paired now. When I visit the Bluetooth settings, I now see the list of "other bluetooth devices" (none of which I've ever paired to), and still no indication of a connection anywhere.
So the question remains: how do I determine what BT device I'm connected to? And is there now a way to tell at a glance whether I'm paired to anything at all without having to dig around in settings?
