- freehunter 9y agoSo Bluetooth devices disconnect when you hit the button to disconnect Bluetooth devices?
- vacri 9y agoFrom The Fine Article: > Location Services is still enabled, Apple devices (like Apple Watch and Pencil) stay connected, and services such as Handoff and Instant Hotspot stay on. > The only way to turn off the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth radios... The GP is right that it's weird that Apple Watch stays connected when you ask for a disconnect, but Apple Earbuds do not. TFA wasn't only talking about the wifi radio.
- syncsynchalt 9y agoThey're bluetooth devices. I'm not sure what your expectation is?
- CodeWriter23 9y agoI would expect BT devices to be turned off. BUT Apple’s rationale for faux turning off in control center is so they can maintain Apple services, so I would expect EarPods to stay on under their new ridiculous regime of “Off means On”.
- Operyl 9y agoThey probably made this exception because unlike the pencil or watch, this is something that “takes control” of a system component (your audio output). It likely made more sense to disconnect them in this case.
