Pairing PlayMini with a device

1. Turn on your PlayMini by holding the power button for 2 seconds. 
2. Go into the Bluetooth settings on your device. PlayMini will automatically be in pairing mode and the light on the far left will start flashing white/orange.
   • For iOS (iPhone), go to the Settings app and select Bluetooth.

Device compatibility

PlayMini uses Bluetooth version 6.0 which is compatible with a wide range of Bluetooth devices. The paired device does not need to be the same version, but similar versions are more likely to maintain a strong connection. 

Signal interference

Some wireless devices may interfere with each others' signals, such as WiFi-routers, smartwatches, other Bluetooth devices, etc. If they operate within the same frequency, you may experience interference such as dropped sound and glitching. The easiest way to locate the cause of interference is by maintaining one connection between devices at the same time or moving your PlayMini and connected device away (outdoors or to a different room) to see if the interference clears.

PlayMini can be up to a maximum of 10 meters (32 ft) from the paired device, but the connection may break if they are blocked by walls or similar objects.
