Why does bluetooth keep turning on with iOS 11

Sorry, but your post is full of complete utter untruths. Do you not understand iPhone can't connect with any device available unless it has been paired previously? If however, your iPhone can connect to any available Bluetooth source regardless, you've got one incredibly special and unique phone.

I was around since the beginning of the PC and Windows and the iPhone and the iPad when Windows was a pain and any IOS update/new version was totally transparent. It made you feel that you didn't do any update or upgrade. After my first experiences with iPhone and iPad I used to think "my next computer will be a Mac".......... not anymore. Now every IOS update/improve comes with some blunders that eventually Apple takes care of, but you have to live with the blunders for - in some vcases - months. It's just like Microsoft Windows. With IOS I had to set up again a lot of my preferences that the new IOS reverted to Apple's default. That should not happen.... but it does.

You realize there is a difference between Bluetooth and Wi-fi right?

But you apparently don't realize that the Bluetooth and Wi-Fi buttons on the control center work exactly the same way. AND you didn't bother to read the rest of the thread before posting, where this subject, including the difference between Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, as well as the similarities, has been discussed over and over and over. You have not contributed anything useful to the discussion.

Much more than a switch being moved. That would be completely fine. What is frustrating is that Apple engineers change the behavior of the device in completely arbitrary ways and then don’t provide a single line of usable documentation.

Sadly the first step in a company’s decline and fall is the decision by arrogant executives to build themselves an extravagant monument to their “genius.”

So while we can expect Apple to survive for another decade or so, Cook et al have clearly lost the thread that made Apple great. it’s a company now run for the glorification and enrichment of its executives and stockholders, users be ******.

And it was a single non-arbitrary switch clearly identified in the iPhone User Guide. Not exactly rocket science.

Not to mention that the first time you use it a popup explains how it works.

It's so annoying. My phone keeps connecting to my bluetooth speaker and interfering with my computer. It's really messed up sometimes. I've picked up calls through my speaker and getting a message pauses the music. Stop connecting god **** it!

This forced feature is driving me insane!!!!

Then just LEARN HOW TO USE IT!!!!! Use Bluetooth and Wi-Fi in Control Center with iOS 11 - Apple Support

For a better understanding of iPhone operation, read this. It's really a good read!

Please identify those iPhone functions that do not work in accordance with this document.

I have the same problem. And YES, IT IS TURNED OFF IN SETTINGS.

Your phone is broken. Take it to an Apple Store for replacement.

Thank you... Yes I have my big boy pants on, and this is truly an annoying function/feature of iOS 11. I’m sure Apple will get around to fixing it in an update, at least we can hope.

Thank you

A common oversight. Peace.

1. It doesnt help when you buy a new Apple product & IOS 11 already comes installed.

2. They weren‘t talking about Wifi but BLUETOOTH.
