Can only connect with Apple Watch paired. 16 Pro not finding other active devices on Bluetooth
[Re-Titled by Moderator]
iPhone 16 Pro, iOS 18
Had the same problem. iPhone 16 Pro Max connected to Apple Watch and Pioneer receiver in my car. Couldn’t even see any other Bluetooth devices. Tried standard Bluetooth fixes - didn’t work. Saw a video that suggested the following: Go to Settings - Screen Time - Content & Privacy Restrictions. Turned on and then off the Content & Privacy Restrictions slider. Now I can see Bluetooth devices that wouldn’t show up before…

Please fix it!!!
There is almost certainly nothing to fix. See my response from September 21, 2024 above.
Same problem on my brand new iPhone 16. Won’t pair with some devices. It is yet another example of intentional obsolescence. Prove me wrong Apple - fix this!
iPhone 16 Pro not connecting to Bluetooth devices
