Wonderboom Speaker Pairing Instructions

This post gives Wonderboom speaker pairing instructions for common Bluetooth devices. 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 computre. But like procedures work for iPhones, iPods, and Android phones and tablets as well.

Wonderboom Speaker Pairing Instructions

1. Visit the Home Screen on your Source Bluetooth Device

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

2. Find the   Settings  App

Practically all mobile devices have a Settings app.

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

3. Bring up the Settings App

Tap the Settings app icon.

For this demo, the iPad Air then displays the first page of its  Settings  screen, as shown in the next screenshot

4. Go to the  Bluetooth Settings  Page to Continue with Wonderboom Speaker Pairing Instructions

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

When the speaker enters pairing mode, it makes a distinctive sound several times. Plus, a lamp in this button starts rapidly flashing white. See this in the last picture above.

Tap the listed speaker in the  Other Devices  section of the  Bluetooth Devices  list, shown above.

Your iPad Air then pairs with the Wonderboom speaker (it appears as “WONDERBOOM” in this demo).

The  Bluetooth Settings  screen then changes to display something like the following.

9. Done with Wonderboom Speaker Pairing Instructions !

Lastly, we have now successfully paired our Wonderboom Bluetooth speaker with a typical mobile device.  Now, audio output from that source device plays on this wireless  speaker, which is what you want.  The same happens with most other Bluetooth devices.
