HELP: Spooked but could be nothing - Random Android phones connected to Bluetooth

[appleofmyibook]

Hi,

I’m wondering if anyone can help me. Every device in my house and that’s ever connected to my Mac Bluetooth is on iOS.

I have now twice opened my laptop and gone straight into Bluetooth and the first time it said ‘Samsung Galaxy S9’ is connected and then yesterday it said ‘Pixel 3a‘ connected.

I know Bluetooth works based on proximity but the fact that it’s happening is spooking me. Has anyone else experienced this? What should I do.

I'm wondering if you have Keychain syncing turned on and if that's the method by which they end up on your iPhone.

Perhaps someone can chime in on that.

As a last resort, you can hold down option+shift while clicking on the bluetooth icon in the menu bar, and select “Factory Reset Bluetooth Module.” There’s also an option to remove all paired devices as well.

I’ve never had this happen to me, but if it did, those would be my first steps.
