How to Pair Wonderboom Speaker with iPhone

This post shows how to pair a Wonderboom speaker with iPhone and iOS devices. First, start with your speaker shut OFF (all dark LEDs). Then, follow along to pair it with iPhone.

How to Pair Wonderboom Speaker with iPhone

1. Visit the Home Screen on your iPhone

First off, press the Home button to get to the  Home   iPad page.  See our  Home  screen as shown next.

2. Find the   Settings   App

4. Go to the  Bluetooth Settings  Page to Continue with How to Pair Wonderboom Speaker to iPhone

Next, 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 our Bluetooth is switched ON here. But since the Wonderboom 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 not yet paired it with this device before.  Plus, the speaker is not yet transmitting its BT connection info. See this scenario, that appears as shown next.
