Heard Bluetooth is choppy, will it mess up my Bt headphone connections?

Thanks

It's really try at your own risk. I've been using iOS 10 from day one with many Bluetooth headphone connections, including on 2-3 hour runs and bikes without any issues at all. Though that is anecdotal and many people have reported issues.

Once my headphones connect, they stay as well connected as they ever did. Getting them connected is harder, though.

I find that this works:
  1. Go into settings
  2. Open the Bluetooth preferences--you should see your paired headphones there
  3. Turn on your headphones. They'll try to auto-connect. They will probably be disconnected a few seconds later.
  4. If they're disconnected, tap on the 'disconnected' text in the Bluetooth settings to get your phone to try and pair with them again
That's worked reliably for me so far.
