I've actually had great frustration with Apple bluetooth, but I think a higher levels of the stack.
My wife has an iPad, iPhone, Apple watch, and iPods.
I have just iPods.
There are countless times when I'm listening to the iPad with my iPods, and when she comes into range, either my iPods switch connection to her iPhone, or her iPods steal my connection to the iPad.
I've found no setting on any device that fixes this. It drives me insane.
- city41 3y agoUgh, that sucks. But I'd still take that over the experience I've had, which is usually trying over and over and over again to get a device to connect at all. Like listening to music in the car, pull over to get gas, and then spend 20 minutes trying to get the music going again (and usually just give up and listen to the radio). It's maddening.
- TruthSHIFT 3y agoThat should only happen if those devices are all logged in to the same Apple ID. Do you all have separate Apple accounts?

- shantara 3y agoIn AirPods settings on iPhone, there's "Connect to this iPhone" option. It defaults to an automatic connection, but could be changed to connect only if previously connected. I think this is supposed to cover your use case, though given the general Bluetooth unreliability, I won't be surprised if it didn't work as expected.
