An iPhone 12 Pro Max sitting in front of a Wonderboom 3.
This post explains the JBL Wonderboom 3 Pair With iPhone and other iOS devices procedure, such as an iPod Touch and iPad. Start with your speaker switched OFF (all dark LEDs). Then, follow along to pair it with iPhone.
Press the Home button to get to the Home page. See our screen as shown next.
We found ours on the second page of the Home screen.
Tap the Settings app icon. Find this pointed at in the last picture.
The iPhone then displays the first page of its Settings screen, as shown in the next screenshot
Tap the Bluetooth item, as pointed at by the green arrow in the last screenshot.
The Bluetooth Settings screen then appears as follows. Note that our Bluetooth is switched ON here. 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 have yet to pair it with this device for the first time. Plus, the speaker is not yet transmitting its Bluetooth pair info. See this scenario, that appears as shown next.
Note in this picture that no JBL Wonderboom 3 appears yet.
Turn on the unit by quickly pressing its Power button. See this button, pointed out in the next picture.
The JBL Wonderboom 3 then comes on, and announces this with a rising electronic sound. The Power button also lights up, as we see next.
Now, to see the speaker on your iPhone, place it into BT discovery mode. For that, press and hold the Bluetooth button located as shown in the next picture. It’s on the top, at the twelve o’clock position in he buttons panel. Release the button when you hear the rising plunks sound.
Also, a lamp in this button starts quickly flashing white.
See the picture next. We found ours, as pointed out next.
Tap the listed speaker in the Other Devices section of the Bluetooth Devices list, shown above.
Your iPhone then pairs with the 3 (appears as “WONDERBOOM 3” in this demo).
The Bluetooth Settings screen then changes to display something like the following.
Note that the speaker now appears as paired, as pointed out in the last picture.
Lastly, we have now successfully paired this speaker with the test iPhone. Audio output from that source device now plays on the JBL Wonderboom 3.
