How to Pair Wonderboom Speaker

This post shows how to pair Wonderboom Bluetooth speaker with common Bluetooth devices. First, start with your Wonderboom shut OFF (all dark LEDs). Then, follow along to pair it with most any Bluetooth source device.  In this demo, we show how pairing works on our iPad Air mobile computer. But like procedures work for iPhones, iPods, and Android phones and tablets as well.

How to Pair Wonderboom Speaker

1. Visit the Home Screen on your iPad Air

Press the Home button to get to the  Home   iPad page.  See our  Home  screen as shown next.

2. Find the iPad  Settings  App

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

3. Bring up the Settings App

Then, tap the Settings app icon.

The iPad Air displays the first page of its  Settings  screen, as shown in the next screenshot

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

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 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 iPad before.  Plus, the speaker is not yet transmitting its BT connection info. See this scenario, that appears as shown next.

Note in this picture that there’s no Wonderboom listed yet.

Then, turn on the WB by quickly pressing its  Power  button. See this button, circled in green, in the next picture.

9. Done with How to Pair Wonderboom Speaker !

Finally, we have now successfully paired our Wonderboom Bluetooth speaker with our iPad Air iOS device.  Audio output from that source device now plays on this wireless  speaker, which is what you want.  The same happens with most other Bluetooth devices.

So long for now.
