Find device on your phone
Once you have your headphones, you will need to pair them with your phone. To do this, you will need to find your device list on your phone.
Most phones have a device list where you can see all connected devices. On Android phones, this is found in the Settings menu- Device option- Bluetooth.
On iOS devices, this is found in the Settings menu- Bluetooth option- Device List. Once in this list, find your headset and connect!
Check your headphone company’s website for additional tips on how to pair your specific brand of headphones. Some companies require a special app to be downloaded to connect their headphones, so look out for that as well.
Make sure headphones are charged
Before you do anything, make sure your Bluetooth headphones are fully charged. There is no point in trying to pair them if they are dead, so make sure they are charged before moving on to the next step.
Some headphones have mics that are built into the earpiece or band, which may cause some issues with the pairing process if there is no charge.
If your Bluetooth headphones do not have a mic and you are trying to pair them to someone else’s device, then there should not be any issues. Just make sure both devices are of the same type (earbuds or over-the-ear) and that both have bluetooth.
Hold down button on headphones
Pairing Bluetooth headphones requires you to connect your headphones to your phone or device. This is only necessary if you plan to use Bluetooth to play music or take calls on the headphones.
To pair your headphones, you will need to first turn on the Bluetooth feature on your phone. Once that is done, you can start the pairing process.
To pair your headphones, hold down the button on your headphones for about five seconds. Your phone will then detect the new device and ask if you want to pair it. Answer yes and let the app do its thing!
Some models may require a different button press to start the pairing process, so check with your brand if that is the case.
Select device on your phone
Once you have your headphones, you will need to pair them with your phone. To do this, you will need to find and select your device on the Bluetooth menu.
On most phones, it is usually under Settings>Bluetooth. Once there, make sure the Bluetooth is turned on and connect your phone to your headphones. You are good to go!
Some headphones have special features that require you to download an app. If this is the case, make sure to do that after pairing! Some apps help control music or take calls via the headphones, so it is important to not skip this step.
If you are having trouble pairing your headphones or using features on them after pairing, try doing a re-pairing process. This is usually found in the settings of the headphone itself.
Hear confirmation sound from phone
Once your devices are paired, you will want to make sure that you hear a confirmation sound when someone calls your phone.
This lets you know that the call was transferred to your headphones and that you need to pick up the phone. Otherwise, you would have to pull out your phone to check!
Some headphones offer this feature as part of their advanced pairing process. If not, check the manual or help section for tips on how to do this.
It is also important to make sure that music plays through your headphones when someone calls your phone. If not, then you will not hear the music or the person on the other end of the line!
Again, check your headphone’s settings or look up how to do this in the manual or online.
Test working connection
Once you have paired your headphones and phone to the device, it is a good idea to test that they are connected.
To do this, turn on your music app and make sure that the music is coming through the headphones, not just the phone speaker. Then, switch devices and make sure that the connection is made.
This can be done by having someone else try them or by trying them yourself on another device. If you cannot hear the music from their device, then they are not connected!
It is also a good idea to do this test every few days to keep the connection strong. Regular use of the devices will cause them to disconnect eventually, so keeping an eye on how long they last is important.
Keeping both devices at similar updates also helps prevent disconnection due to different software versions.
Reset headphone settings
If you are having trouble pairing your headphones with your device, try resetting the settings on your headphones.
Many Bluetooth devices have a button that resets the device to its factory settings. For instance, some Beats have a button that says ‘reset’ on it. Pressing this will delete any previous connections from your device and reset the headphones.
This is also a great tip if your headphones do not work after being repaired. By resetting the settings, you can see if the issue is with the repair or if it is something else.
Some Bluetooth devices do not have a physical button to press for a reset, so you will have to go into the settings to do this. Look for a menu that says ‘settings’ or ‘reset’ and proceed from there.
Troubleshoot headset connection
If you find that you cannot pair your headphones or other device with your friend’s or partner’s device, there are a few things you can try.
Try re-pairing your devices as described in the steps above. Try re-pairing your devices on a different device – if you can pair yours, then try to help them pair theirs!
Check if your devices have the latest software updates. If they do not, try to update them and see if that fixes the issue.
Check your Bluetooth connections and make sure they are not disabled. Check for any other Bluetooth devices nearby and make sure they are not interfering with yours.
If all else fails, reset both of your Bluetooth connections and devices. Press and hold the button on your Bluetooth device for about ten seconds until it turns off. Then re-activate it by pressing the button again.
