iOS 15.4 Bluetooth problems

[GtrDude]

Anyone else experiencing Bluetooth problems in 15.4?

I can hardly listen to my AirPods Pro any more and other Bluetooth problems are also occurring but this is the biggest one.

Started immediately after upgrading to 15.4, no other phone changes.
iPhone XS-Max.
Thanks

Yes I’ve got Bluetooth problem me since 15.4 on both my HomePods and my audio unit in the car.

It works great most of the time but there will be moments where the sound is really distorted as though it’s losing connection.

I'm having issues too. Apple Music doesn't work when connected to Bluetooth and my car stereo. Apple Music just freezes and won't play.

Tried the usual stuff like deleting the connection and adding it again to no avail.

This may be something already done but have you tried the refresh of BT connection;

1. On the phone, go to the BT section, then "Forget" the offending device
2. On the device, forget the iphone
3. On the iphone, pair the BT device like a "New" device

This may or may not help but worth a shot. I know others have been having issues since either 15.2 or 15.3. I have not seen any issues myself but I don't always use BT in my car either, it works when I do however.

Just to stay current on this; there was a Spotify update a couple of days ago and I haven’t noticed any interruptions since then.
This probably fixed is.

If you don't mind me asking. Was the issue only apparent when using Spotify? I am intrigued because if it was affecting other apps, it is interesting how a buggy 3rd party app can do that. Not to say that Spotify hasn't had issues in the past.

Spotify is about the only app I use with the AirPods, so for me it only happened in Spotify.

Okay, that makes a lot of sense then, lol
