How to Connect Earbuds to Phone (Android & iPhone) | GoBoult Guide

Getting new earbuds is exciting — until you hit that one tiny roadblock: “How do I connect these things to my phone?” Don’t worry, it’s way easier than it looks.

Whether you’re team Android or iPhone, pairing earbuds is just a matter of a few taps. And if you’re rocking GoBoult earbuds, the process is even smoother — just open the case, hit Bluetooth on your phone, and you’re ready to stream, call, or game wire-free.

In this guide, we’ll break down everything you need to know to connect your earbuds to your phone — step by step, with troubleshooting tips in case things get tricky.

What You’ll Need Before Pairing

Before you start tapping through settings, make sure you’re set up for a smooth connection. Here’s a quick checklist:

  1. Charged Earbuds

    • Pop your GoBoult earbuds into the charging case for a few minutes to juice them up. Low battery can stop pairing from working.

  2. Phone Bluetooth On

    • Go to Settings → Bluetooth and switch it on. If Bluetooth is already on, toggling it off and back on can help reset the connection.

  3. Earbuds in Pairing Mode

    • Most GoBoult earbuds automatically enter pairing mode the first time you take them out of the case.

    • Look for signs like a blinking LED or a voice prompt saying “pairing.”

  4. Keep Them Close

    • Make sure your phone and earbuds are within a meter of each other for best results.

Once you’ve ticked all these off, you’re ready to connect in just a few taps.

Whether you’re using Android or iPhone, pairing your Bluetooth/TWS earbuds is quick and painless. Follow these steps:

On Android Phones

  1. Open Settings → Bluetooth.

  2. Tap “Pair new device” (wording may vary slightly by brand).

  3. Take your TWS earbuds out of the charging case — they’ll automatically enter pairing mode.
