UE Wonderboom 3 Bluetooth Speaker How to Connect

This post details the UE Wonderboom 3 Bluetooth Speaker How to Connect procedure, 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 connecting works on an iPad Air 3 tablet. But a like routine works for iPhones, iPods, and Android phones and tablets too.

UE Wonderboom 3 Bluetooth Speaker How to Connect: Step by Step

1. Unpack and Charge the 3

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 Source 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.

4. Bring up the Settings App

Tap the Settings app icon.

Out test tablet  then shows the first page of its  Settings  screen, as shown in the next screenshot

5. Go to the  Bluetooth Settings Page to Continue with UE Wonderboom 3 Bluetooth Speaker and How to Connect

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 connection info. This looks something like as shown next.

Note in this picture that no UE Wonderboom 3 Bluetooth Speaker appears just yet.

Power up the speaker by rapidly pressing its  Power  button.

See this button, pointed at by yellow arrow, in the next picture.

When you press this Connecting button, the speaker makes an offbeat but cool connecting sound. Plus, a lamp in this button starts fast-flashing white. See this in the last picture above.
