Explains how to connect to JBL Wonderboom 1 Speaker from typical Bluetooth devices like Apple iOS and iPadOS devices. Similar directions work on Android as well.

How to Connect to JBL Wonderboom 1 Speaker: Step by Step

1. Visit the Home Screen on your Source Bluetooth Device

Firstly, press the Home button to get to the  Home   screen.  See our  Home  page as shown next.

2. Find the  Settings  App

We find ours on the second page of the  Home  screen. Most any mobile device these days has some sort of Settings app.  If yours does not, then follow the directions in its manual for connecting to a Bluetooth speaker.

Then tap the  Bluetooth  item.

Our  Bluetooth Settings screen then comes up. Note that our Bluetooth is ON here. But the JBL Wonderboom 1 Speaker is currently OFF. So it does not show in either the  My Devices  or  Other Devices lists yet.  Why?  Because we’ve not yet connected to it from this device before.  Plus, the JBL Wonderboom 1 Speaker is not yet transmitting its connection info.
