Hi all, I am just over 4 days into using my OPN S 1s and so far I love them. Birds chirping, touch pad keys that I never knew made “tones” when touched. Awesome.
I am still trying to try to “configure” mine with all of my devices. I have an iPhone which connected seamlessly. I also had an iPad (says connected and discovered but cannot stream to my HAs. I also have a, iPod Touch. Same difficulty as with the iPad. And lastly I have a Watch 3.0 which seems to be clueless when a phone call is picked up. It doesn’t seem to get the phone call pick up notice.
I have an appointment with my audi on Thursday but was hoping to see if there is any knowledge in this forum with the S1 and several concurrent BT connections.
First off the watch will not connect to the OPNs, you have to have the connect clip to connect to the watch. Second and very important when your aids are connected to the first device in the morning the only way to be able to get them to stream from any of the others is to disable the connection say from the iPhone by disabling the Bluetooth on the iPhone to get the connection to say the iPad. You don’t have to keep the Bluetooth disabled on the iPhone after the connection to the other device.
To sum it up your aids will pair to multiple devices but can only stream from one device at a time.
Thank you for the quick reply. i was hoping it would behave like some of my Bluetooth devices and “flip” to another connected (or established) device. Hmmmmm have to rethink how I am going to use them.
I will explain how I am seeing things work for me. My iPhone was the first device paired to my aids so them seems to always choose that connection, then my connect clip, and tv connect was paired to the aids. I never have issues with the use of my iPhone, connect clip or tv connect, they all seem to share without any issues. But if I want to use my iPad then I have to disable my iPhone Bluetooth just long enough to start streaming from my iPad.
In theory it should “flip” between the devices automatically and I have seen it flip myself, but that’s a very rare occasion that’s not consistently repeatable. So the best and most consistent way is to turn off Bluetooth on all the unused devices first. You can turn it back on after the connection is made to the appropriately desired device, but not before.
