This post describes How to Connect Logitech Wonderboom 2 to iPad, to get it playing from your phone, tablet, or other BT device. First, of course, for new speakers, unpack them and make sure that they have some charge in their batteries. Then, with your speaker turned OFF (all dark top panel LEDs), follow these steps to connect with most any BT source device. Thus in this demo, we show how this pairing works on an iPad Air 3 tablet. But a like routine works for iPhones, iPods, and Android phones and tablets too.

How to Connect Logitech Wonderboom 2 to iPad: Step by Step

1. Unpack and Charge the Speaker

If this is a new speaker, take it out of the box and remove all wrappings and packing materials. Then, charge it for several minutes before proceeding, as these can be pretty dead when you first get them.

2. Next, Visit the Home Screen on your Bluetooth Device

Then press the Home button to get to the Home page. See our Home screen as shown next on our iPad.

3. Find the iPad Settings App

We found ours on the second page of the Home screen on our tablet.

Tap the Bluetooth item, as pointed at by the dark green arrow in the last screenshot above.

Our Bluetooth Settings screen then appears as follows. Note that we switched ON our Bluetooth on this tablet. But since the speaker is currently OFF, it does not show in either the My Devices or Other Devices lists on the tablet yet, Why? Because we’ve never connected it with this iPad before. Plus, the speaker is not yet broadcasting its BT handle info. This looks something like as shown next.
