Ask HN: How do you manage your Bluetooth across multiple devices?

by hawktheslayer on 2/5/21, 3:22 AM with 2 comments

I have a Bluetooth headset that I will connect with (a) my phone, (b) my computer and (c) my iPad. The headset can only pair with 2 devices at a time. I find myself constantly walking around my house searching for my devices to shut off the Bluetooth. Anyone find a better solution for this?

    I have a Bose headset that connects to two devices. I used to have the problem of being on a work call when suddenly the phone rings and my audio goes out.

    I solved it by realizing I can hold the power button for like ten seconds and wipe the paired device list. Then I connect with my work laptop again and I'm set.
