Bluetooth not working on IPhone XS

It never hurts to take it in; your store has a lot of Bluetooth devices so if it's your unit it will be instantly obvious.

new IPhone X max can’t connect with any Bluetooth had a IPhone 6 no problem

Same for me ... iPhone XS, iOS 12 ... bluetooth connection works initially but apps which are made for managing the bluetooth devices have problems finding the earbuds and a bose speaker. (worked without any problem on iPhone 8 Plus with iOS 12 Beta and final release)

Please fix this issue a.s.a.p

Did You find out what is causing the problem - I have similar but in may case during calls my microphone stops working after a minute or so. Person I talk to doesn't hear me at all. Same with voice memo - jutro stops recording so I think problem lies within bluetooth firmware - iPhone 7 running iOS 12 runs flawlessly.

I too am having a problem. New iPhone Xs won't connect to Bose QC35 ii headphones. Phone doesn't seem to be recognized by the app or the headphones through the IOS. I have tried all suggestions for turning on / off bluetooth, restarting both the iPhone and the headphones, Airplane mode toggle on and off, etc.

I have the same Problem.

Bluetooth doesnt work correctly with my IPhone XS 256 GB and my Apple Watch Series 3. it seems to be connected for some seconds, than it disconnects. Settings Page tells me that my iPhone is connected, than some Moments later it changes to disconnected. My watch says everytime that there is in Connection to my IPhone.

My Mazda and some more BLuetooth Devices can‘t be found on my iPhone in the bluetooth Settings.

Having same issue with iPhone XS max and the stereo (non-navigation unit) in my 2015 Subaru WRX. Previously, I had a iPhone 7 Plus which the pairing worked fine. I also upgraded the iPhone 7 Plus to iOS 12 and the pairing was still working fine.

I received the iPhone XS Max, set it up using iCloud backup but was unable to pair with my stereo system. I reset the stereo system bluetooth settings and re-paired my phone through bluetooth but that did not solve the issue as well. I've tried forgetting my car stereo in the iPhone bluetooth settings while also restarting the phone but that was unable to solve the issue.

Just updated to IOS 12.0.1 and my bluetooth problem has not been fixed.

My XS Max will connect to the car and work until you turn the car off.

When you turn the car back on it won't auto connect you have to connect it manually.

This problem never happen with my 7 Plus.

I have the same problem. Bluetooth voice audio and Siri work fine, but it doesn't present itself as a receiver for bluetooth audio streaming to the head unit. iPhone XS Max on IOS 12.0.1 with Chevrolet car.

iPhone 7 and iPad both work perfectly with the same car

I’ve also been having some Bluetooth problems with the iPhone XS to the point where I may be returning it. I’ve paired the phone to my car and it works when I first pair it but the next day, the Bluetooth fails to work with my car unless I delete it from both my car and the phone and then repair it. I know it’s the phone and not my car because my previous iPhone 7 Plus worked without any problems. For a phone with the price point that the iPhone XS has, there is no reason for it to be having as many issues as have been reported.

Just got my iPhone XS Max 64 GB and Bluetooth works except for my car. For the first day, the Bluetooth connected over and over perfectly fine but then it just stopped. It isn’t discoverable anymore by my car and wont even find my cars Bluetooth anymore to pair.

Anyone else have this issue? My car is a 2014 Honda Accord Coupe btw.

The same for me. IPhone XS, 64 GB, the person I talk to in the phone via car-kit stops hearing me. Sometimes after 1-3 sec, other times after 20-30 sec even 1 min. It is not the same each time. It’s like the microphone stops working ....

I even had my phone replaced with a new one (not that other one was old). And the issue is the same.

While I was waiting for the phone replacement, I went back to my old iPhone 7, with the same iOS 12.0.1 (latest update), the same I had on the XS. The iphone 7 works perfectly.

I just purchased the Xs Max and it won't connect to my car. Im so frustrated. My car detects my husband's 7, new watch and 2 x phones. The problem is my new phone. Im not able to get apple to acknowledge the problem. Im running 12.1 .

As everyone on this thread has pointed out, our cars pair with other iPhones and Android phones for audio. That eliminates the car configuration and pinpoints the audio problem as specific to the XS model.
