When I am on a webpage on my mac it shows up on all my other IOS devices when you double tap the home button. This only happens when bluetooth is on. How do I prevent this from happening while keeping bluetooth on so I can use my headphones?

THANK YOU

On your Mac:

"System Preferences", "General", *un-tick* the option "Allow handoff between this Mac and your iCloud Devices" (it is near the bottom of the form).

That will fix it.

You can also disable Handoff on iOS, "Settings", "General", "Handoff" and slide the switch to "Off". That will stop Handoff between iOS devices and the Mac.
